Beautiful but slow.

Rating: 6/10 (15 September 2008)

Went to see this with the promise of Dominic Cooper *licks picture* and a period drama.
I was not disappointed on either count, but something made it move incredibly slow, and seem incredibly long-winded, when it didn't have to be. However, it redeemed itself by being visually stunning. Some of the symmetry was breath-taking and setting was gorgeous. Very pretty :D.
Enjoyable, not boring in any way, but just a little slow for my liking.
I was a little surprised at the 12A certificate though. I think my glasses steamed up on several occasions :P Far too lewd for people under the age of 12 ^^ or maybe that's just me being prudish.
