A wonderful return for Brendan Fraser and an amazing performance, if you a fan of him you won't regret watching this. However his daughter Ellie, is almost more annoying than she was in Stranger Things, almost ruined the film for me but not quite. This was due to the sensitivity shown in characters and vulnerability of each character. If anything this film highlights the mental issues between food and brain and how people perceive image and a worth of a person. Some slow bits as per in most movies these days always obvious when you start picking up your phone and become distracted. I felt the end was a bit Hollywood, which was a shame but yes a one watch, pretty good but not amazing.

This is not good

Don't get me wrong, I do love a good portrayal and I like many others still have a fascination for Diana and her whole story. This film however makes me feel a bit disappointed because it only seemed to focus on her saddest moments. Kirsten's portrayal wasn't the best, felt she was a bit karaoke. The soundtrack was totally over the top, going from odd jazz to all out ear splitting strings.
It was hard to watch, and I almost gave up because nothing really comes across in a meaningful way, and feels very uggggggggh
I guess the film does show Diana's isolation even though she is constantly with people/staff/family so maybe that's something but I would rather not see this again anytime soon.

This was touching, worrying, beautiful, upsetting and will stay with me for a while. Anthony Hopkins is truly a fantastic actor. Hard to watch sometimes because it brings on worries of a possible future for my own father but nevertheless an original thought provoking film.

And I thought Solace was bad

This was an ultimate bore fest and very tacky obvious cgi effects. Pretty poor bond, they need to just park it now. As usual too much dialogue and not enough story. Why are they making these movies touchy-feely, it's Bond or that's what it used to be. Very poor.

Yeah pretty good

Much much better than the last few movies of his. This one had a real sinister vibe and made you keep watching. Reminiscent of something older, ignore the rubbish reviews and make up your own mind. Fresher than the so called horror/thrillers of late.

This is a must watch! I didn't expect as much as I got from this film. It's incredibly funny, sad and thought provoking and so naturally acted I already want to see this again. If you are expecting a film about a few blokes just getting hammered drunk (and they do) it's much more than that.

Story... oh my gawd what a drag. Could have been so interesting. Literally had to drag myself through it, the only saving grace was the fabulous sets and costumes, era etc. Seriously 2 hours 11 mins of not much of anything.

I can't understand the amazing reviews on this. I couldn't even finish this film. The plot was weak, horrible acting. It was as if we watching someone who was so bored by lockdown that they were trying anything to get through but for us the viewers it was irritating and boring.
