The movie "A Doll's House" was a great film that had its ups and its downs. First I wanted to go over the things the film did great on. The costumes of the film were very accurate to the time period and some were styled with unique designs that captured my eyes. When it got into the drama sections of the film I thought the acting was spot on and was a lot better than the scenes of regular dialogue and conversations. My favorite actor in this film was definitely Anthony Hopkins, he played his part with the right emotion and never overdid his performance. The story did match up with the story of the actual play and it gave the viewers a clear visual definition of the play. The play did have its cons because of certain things the characters did during the film. The characters emotion was over the top, I seriously don't believe that back in that time period they performed with so much enthusiasm. Another thing that I thought the film lacked was the sets and the environments the characters were in. The environments were bland and plain, they lacked color and the richness of cultural architecture. The sets weren't lighted well and it just felt like there was no life in the environments that surrounded the characters. The film also didn't have much in set props, like I said the environment was boring, well the lack of set props really contributed towards that mood of mine. Overall, I though the film was an average film, it did have its cons, but also its pros which made it a great film for people that enjoy plays.
