The visuals were indeed a feast for ones eyes...but oh dear, the sound track, apart from occasional, beautiful orchestral accompaniment, was mostly hideous. The strident, discordant, monotonous effects at times was most distressing and went on for far too long. i thought i would have to exit the cinema it bacame so unbearable, fingers in my ears didn’t reduce the sound! Why must we witness vomiting scenes in today’s movies....it’s most unnecessary and extremely unattractive. The costumes were brilliant and the interiors of the palace stunning. Olivia Compton’s performance outstanding as mad Queen Anne. However, I wouldn’t recommend this film.

Like watching paint dry...beautiful scenery but even that can’t save this dull, ponderous film.

Too long. Too ponderous. The sound track jarring, anyone could have made the same discordant sounds on a piano. Too much shaky camera action and far too much visual of the ground and feet. Thought it would never end. So disappointing. The script writer didn’t do much ‘writing’, when there was dialogue it was often repeated...again and again! Obviously meant to be ‘arty’ but not to my liking.😴
