I've read several critical reviews applauding this film, however having sat through it twice I have to point out that this is a very poor film.
Almost two and a half hours long, and every single minute of this film was an effort. How on Earth did they think this would appeal?
It's a lifeless watch, it rambles along at a torturous pace, and sadly half the cast seem totally disinterested, giving very wooden performances.
Special effects vary, some look good, some look very poor, when you look at the budget this film had, it should have looked flawless, it doesn't.
I love Gemma Chan and Richard Madden, but neither of them look totally at home here, I only hope this turkey of a movie doesn't halt either career.
I don't think a second will follow somehow.
Awful sadly, I did give it a second watch to be sure, but there you are, it's a shocker, 3/10.
