The House of the Spirits
The film has a "rotten" 30% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 37 reviews with the consensus: "An enviable collection of sterling actors are all woefully miscast in "The House of the Spirits", a plodding saga of magical realism that lacks much magic or realism." Two oft-cited reasons for the poor critical reception were its diffusely episodic structure and a cast of mostly Anglo American actors in Latin American roles.
