Forget the Fables
This is certainly not a stellar performance from Spielberg, as some of his dire supporters suggest. Just because it has Spielberg's name attached to it and supposedly chronicles his life, doesn't mean it will translate well onto the screen. It's unfortunate that Michelle Williams lent her name to this project as she has a decent previous resume. This movie is too long and too tedious and too dull. It also shamelessly has scenes of anti-Christianite behaviour with overtly tiresome tropes on Catholicism. It's hard to imagine that someone who gave us "Jaws" would stoop to such depravity and utter nonsense.
