I really wanted to like this movie. Sadly I was significantly disappointed. While Ian McKellan and Helen Mirren are as wonderful as one could hope, their performances are wasted on a rather contrived, quite convoluted script. In the end, I simply did not find the intricate plot to be credible. Worst, many key plot twists were verbally explained rather than acted. Sorry, but this movie simply was not a good use of such fine talent.
