Wickedly entertaining

Rating: 9/10 (4 January 2019)

This is how you make period pieces fun and enjoyable. I laughed out loud multiple times and that doesn't happen often with this type of film. All of the lead female performances are great and it's hard to pinpoint just one for praise. I only wish the ending had been better. The last 15 minutes seemed a bit unnecessary and the odd ending didn't help. Other than that though, the Favourite is a humorous tale with lavish production and interesting characters.
