An acquired taste indeed!

OK, so i didn't really LIKE like this movie at first glance, but here are a few things that you might want to keep in mind when you watch.

It isn't typical.... there's a lot of pop and rock music where you're usually used to expecting harps, organs and violins

It's rich, sparkly, bright and shiny, colourful to show the colour of the main characters, not doused in greys and sombre blues.

It took me two tries to watch it, and get myself to accept the jarring delivery of this flick, but once i had that down pat, i appreciated the quirky nuances and took it all in the way it was served up.
It gets a thumbs up from me for bringing something new to the table. Watch it when you're in a royal mood and want to have fun... NOT if you want to see a serious period piece with heavy handed dialogues spoken in the style of English Monarchs and such...
