Always interesting to see a movie that garners either raves or passionate dislike. I end of somewhere in the middle, because of the superb acting by Olivia Coleman. The cinematic tics bothered me (those silly wide angle shots, as if one is looking out from a convex mirror, as if to remind that viewing that they are the watchers). The odd Stepford wives costumes: shortcuts for stations in life, or laziness? The real star of the film is Hatfield House.

Disconnected superficial characters. Boring... had difficulty staying awake towards the end.

Waste money and time.

Disgusting and boring.

A wonderful film. Everything about it is superb: cinematography, script, brilliant acting. Seems that previous reviewers base their negative response on their “moral values.” I’ll bet they are quite happy to watch shows replete with gratuitous violence. Maybe those easily offended should read reviews before going to the movies.

This was a horrible waste of time.

Beautiful scenery and great acting yet very disappointed with the inaccuracies of the historical facts regarding the sexual nature of these women’s relationships. Like what?? It felt the explicit scenes were added for “entertainment “ while disregarding historical accuracies. Other than this, it’s a beautiful film visually!

A waste of time and depressing. Sick society and not suitable for Holiday season. Great acting but what a waste of talent. Especially Emma Stone!

The acting was very good regardless of the story -- Queen Anne was outstanding, the settings were terrific but the rest ... worthless. The sex scenes were mostly implied, unless I slept through those scenes.

The trailer and description suggested an historical drama. What followed in the theatre was anything but. Graphic gay sex (both varieties) and vile discourse scandalized and sullied would could have been an interesting account of rivalry in the court of Queen Anne. Instead, all three historical figures were sleazed to indulge the director's homoerotic fantasies. I would give no stars if it were possible.
