  This is about the dysfunctional politics of the English court. If you don't go in to it with that in mind you might be disappointed.

  This is an exceptional period drama/black comedy showcasing three brilliant actresses. Of course, being an entertainment, it squews the facts a little. However, the backbone of the story, the rivalry of two ladies in waiting for Queen Anne’s affection, and the power that is attached to said affection, is historically correct. Olivia Coleman has already garnered the Golden Globes, Best Actress Award for her turn as the declining Queen Anne, emotionally and intellectually ill equipped for her position as Head of State. Of the many highlights of Ms. Coleman’s performance my favorite, (no pun intended), is the one where, in a single, continuous take, she transforms from a happy, smiling observer of her friend dancing, to a woman on the verge of tears, with eyes welling up almost to the point of overflow. While I did not expect this British, period piece to take in a fortune at the American box offices, I did expect those who chose to see it to appreciate it far more than this site suggests. BTW.....the ending had a definite point, for those who thought it disappointing. It brought the younger “Favorite’s” rise and fall full circle. Certainly not uplifting, but very apropos.

  Spectacular! I went in not knowing what to expect and it blew me away. Took some liberties with the history, but no one knows for sure what really went on! Some of it was accurate and acting was superb.

  This movie is insane with seriously no point, but if you can be present with it. The acting is genius. Loved it!

  The writers treated the audience (must be idiots to watch this) with as much disrespect as the characters treated each other. I felt I had been beaten with a two by four by the time I left the theater.

  Costume period piece that reminds us that the good old days really weren't so good. Nothing redeeming about this film except sets and costumes. The story, script, acting, film directing, and editing all pure sh*t. A waste of everyone's time and talents including mine. They should burn every copy.

  I'm a fan of Emma Stone & Rachel Weiss, and normally love period / historical pieces. But this movie was terrible; script not clear, score was SO distracting. So disappointed & waste of time!

  GARBAGE!!! A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME!!! Historical fiction at its worst!! If you want to see an ugly 450 lb woman stuff her face, then watch a close up of vomit spewing out of her mouth into a large metal container followed by her in a lesbian love scene while someone is attending to her fat foot (she had gout) - this is your movie. I left after 45 minutes. Had enough of this crap to last me a l o n g time!! DISGUSTING!!! PHEW!!!!
