I thought this was very good. Both Mulligan and Fiennes gave wonderful performances. Lily James was cute, as usual, but her storyline felt a tad shoehorned in. It seemed to work out well in the end though.

It started out a little shaky where the pacing and editing felt off but it seemed to find its footing about 20 minutes in. Oddly, it felt both methodically paced and brisk at the same time.

I also would have preferred that we learned a little more about the history of their find as we kept hearing about it being Anglo-Saxon but we never learn much beyond that.

I thought a lot of the cinematography was stunning and they did a good job of making the dig site look and feel authentic.

Overall: :3star:

When I first heard the title, I was hoping for a horror movie :)

I was hoping for a video game adaptation

I was hoping for a documentary on how to find the g-spot.

I thought it was good, but it didn’t strike me the way it did my friend who raved about it.

I heard Nicole Kidman was attached to the project before Mulligan came in. I like Kidman but she seems to be everywhere these days so I’m fine with Mulligan,

Thought it was good, too. But I wouldn't call it rave-able.
