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.

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.

I have no objection based on morality. Sometimes girls kiss girls. With the strong cast, the trailers led me to think I'd like this more than I did. ………………guru bob………………………..72/100

mixed. the acting was great-- the Queen Anne character fabulous ! also liked inventiveness of the inter-cutting & clever anachronisms. It was very well made. My disappointment was with the end. It was as though the writer/s didn't know how how to deepen what could have been a richer story with more profound insight. needed a good woman writer.

Great movie shows the true nature of human vice and weakness. Maybe not a holiday movie but a truthful look at women, power and corruption.

This is a senseless, waste of time & money movie at this festive holiday season!! It was disgusting to say the least regarding morals. My husband & I walked out after 45 minutes. Gave it 1star because of scenery.

Edit-I agree with the review of Dec 18th... Good job writers: Deborah Davis, Tony McNamara and director Yorgos Lanthimos, NOT!! And people wonder why so many in our society have no morals & so much is going to sh&#. I gave it two stars only because of its beautiful scenes and cinematography.

I agree with the review of Dec 18th. So disgusting, scandalous and treacherous, I had a hard time enjoying it. And to boot such a strange ending left you empty and even more disgusted. Terrible to put this out during the holidays, a time that brings & reminds feelings of love, which this movie was not. It was full of decent & vengeance. Good job Emma Stone, not!! And people wonder why so many in our society have no morals. I gave it two stars only because of its beautiful scenes and cinematography.

The false preview showed an amusing historical film but it was instead disgusting with no morals, and pornographic scenes. I'll never ever watch another Emma Stone film. I can't believe this film was released during a holy season of celebrating the birth of Christ. It's in opposition to all HE stands for.

All the actresses were fabulous, but Queen Anne was spectacular. The movie was gratifying!!
