Mirren was good, but almost ...I despise this film.<br /><br />Mirren was good, but almost treated as supporting character. <br /><br />The "style" was heavily annoying, Ben Whishaw is creepy and not in a good way, the young lovers are masterpieces of wooden acting, the other actors act their ass off, but definitely looks too ridiculous to take seriously and too poetic to even care for, the first hour is a torture to watch, but somehow entertains in the last half hour.<br /><br />This whole movie is a pathetic excuse for movie watching, save Helen Mirren's dignified performance.Malcolmhttp://mylastoscar.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6500439238085712112.post-47040846992285728212011-08-06T15:02:31.651-07:002011-08-06T15:02:31.651-07:00I really am the only person who liked this.

Intense and moving it got the balance of comedy and tension right and the casting Mirren was an inspired choice (even though it didn't completely work).Runs Like A Gayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11170144191875296336noreply@blogger.com
