This was just a so-so movie. The best thing about it is Bella Ramsey. She is an absolute gem. They only took a few things from the book that This movie is based on. The book is so much better.
This movie suffers the problem of trying to put modern sensibilities into a historical setting. That doesn't work. When you start trying to put today's politics into medieval England, it just doesn't work. It falls flat.
The scenery is absolutely beautiful. The outside shots are just amazing. Most of the costuming is very good.
It was wonderful seeing Billy piper in this role of the mother. That was unexpected, but a very nice treat.
