  1. Gosford Park | A slow drama with little substance@dedicatedguy2387d

    After I watched the awesome movie called Images I decided to check some of the other works of the director and I hoped they were as good as I expected. Gosford Park is a movie about a rich family, their wealthy friends and the live-in servants that attend to them. The most important part of the plot is a murder that happens inside the house which causes havoc among the people.

    One of the things I didn't like about this movie, is that the murder takes a lot of time to happen, there was a point I was simply waiting for it to happen in order to add a little spice to the story because, honestly, more than the first half of the movie was pretty boring for me. It is not that I don't enjoy old drama movies, I have enjoyed excellent ones like The Remains of the Day with Hopkins giving his best as a butler.

    Gosford Park, on the other hand, is a very slow movie with only 1 intriguing character in the entire story, one who didn't seem like he belonged there, although this doesn't advance or improve the plot because the reason why this person was present is a little bit silly.

    The cast has several well-known actors and actresses, but my problem with this movie is that the story didn't have too much intrigue, there were too many characters for the viewer to care about them (including the victim of the murder), the twist is not that mind-blowing, there are no intrigue nor excitement and the mystery is very bland.

    This movie certainly wasn't for me, which is a shame because I was expecting a cool story with a lot of intrigue and an interesting plot. I am sure there are people that could enjoy this movie if they like drama, but in my case, I didn't enjoy it. Too boring for my taste. Even for drama fans, there are much better movies in my opinion.

    The best

    • Good individual actors but not enough to make the movie interesting.

    The worst

    • Boring plot
    • Bland twist
    • Good looking setting
