It seems to be a common consensus on here that this film was unfairly savaged by the critics. I have to agree.
I expected nothing from this due to the hideous revues it had received. However, when it was on the TV recently I gave it a try.
Simply marvellous. I was hooked from the beginning. Sumptuous sets and really good acting from Keira and Mr Fiennes as usual. What a bastard ! I would have shot him if I was his wife. There were plenty of guns and swords around his house.
I couldn't fail to compare it with similar snore fests like Age of Innocence and Dangerous Liaisons which bored from point one, and never achieved what they did here, and both of those films were critically received.
