stuffy story trapped in ridiculous acting and ludicrous comedy
12 May 2004
There are a thousand and one problems with this film, but i only have time to mention a couple. Firstly I was under the impression that this was a comedy, but I didn't find it remotley amusing. The story is cliche and contains so many stereotypes about victorian life that it is beyond belief. There is also a problem with the length. This film was on at about midnight and lasted until gone one in the morning. A film this bad should not have lasted over ninety minutes and even then it is not even worth watching. The setting makes the film uncomfortable and is slightly sickening. Anthony hopkins was just embarassing and with a bad central performance the whole film is subjected to misguidance and in this case the film is just plain awful!
