How anyone can read that book and think it's real is one thing.
How anyone can read that book and think it's worth making a movie out of is another.
And then to make a really bad movie, where among other things, no one seems to be in any major discomfort at any point, and an English rose looking person is supposed to be a street and starvation survivor, is a third.
How Peter Weir can make Master and Commander, and then this utter tripe is something else altogether.
(On the plus side, Colin Farrell actually took the trouble to act, lose weight, and look unkempt in the movie. He's the only one who seems to have bothered about anything at all).

Love them or hate them, the royal family with all its scandals and ceremony is interesting. Yet somehow Spencer manages to be boring. How do you take an interesting subject and only use it to show you can hold the camera weird and play "discordant jazz"? Reminded me of Brian de Palma doing it, but at least they were action movies, and involved more than one person in scenes. Kristen Stewart is otherwise good but does an annoying breathy voice. Juries love that though.
I went to Imdb after watching this movie thinking people would have made fun of it, but 8.1? 8.1?? Did y'all watch the same movie?
It was full of dialogue of the form: A: Tell me a story. B (tells a story for no conceivable reason). C: No, this is the way it happened. D: No, this is the way it happened. (repeat ad nauseam)
I fell asleep about 20 minutes before the movie ended. A great night's sleep too. Then I caught the reveal the next day. And I was laughing.
I ask again, did y'all watch the same movie?
