A Rise to Power, only to realize the higher you go Up, bigger the Downfall

Rating: 8/10 (29 January 2020)

Let me start to say that yesterday i saw the Lobster of the same director Yorgos Lathimos and i Hated it, yet this movie i just Love it. And because of it, i went this see this movie with a lot of doubt, but this movie was great.
This movie is a huge improvement over the Lobster, even if it can still be a sinister movie, and weird in it's own way.
The thing is that the Budget is a lot bigger, being a Medievel 18 century England setup helps a lot, and this movie has a lot more straightforward script without ambiguous interpretations has the Lobster did. And there are no dull momments in this movie, (except the last thirty minutes, The movie should have been shorter), and the pace of the movie feels right this time.
The Favourite, is a exceptionally well scripted movie, with great clever dialogue and a top-notch dark humour that puts a smile to your face has the movie develops.
To explain the Plot of the movie is a easy task. It's the story of a ill Queen(Olivia Colman), that has a women of her confidence (Rachel Weiss) that makes the countrys biggest decisions in her behalf. Then arives in her castle, a women (Emma Stone), that starts working has a servant, but wants to be so much more. She is a manipulating witch, that with many schemes will rise and take the place of of the trustworthy helper of the Queen from Rachel Weiss Character. The Rivalry between the Two, define the movie, has the one who gets the Queens Favour at the End is the Favourite.
The Actors Performances, are amazing. With Olivia Colman with the leading role has the Queen(Oscar Winner in this movie), she is just Brilliant, i remember in the Lobster as the Hotel Manager, but frankly besides these two movies i didn't remember seeing her at all. She was Great and deserved the Oscar without a doubt. Rachell Weiss, should have have th Oscar for supporting role as well, i loved her role as a all controling sort of Villain, being in the end the Queens true love. Emma Stone the true Villain, and Nicholas Hoult do both also great performances, with great depth, as evil intelligent Masterminds. Of course the director and the great plot helps the intensity of the performances a lot.
The Deception, Rivalry, Intrigue, Revenge his all shown in a very humourous and clever way. Of course you can see from a mile away what will happen in the movie latter on, but even predictable the movie ending manages to be rewarding and algo satisfying...
The Ending is Fair, because everyone gets what they deserve.
I give this one a 8 out of 10, which is a lot more that o given the Lobster (2 out of 10) Yorgos Lathimos must be praised for this well done Masterpiece
