Ian S Amazing cast with not a lot to do. Didn't add much to previous takes on the British class system. The first half was quite good but the last hour crawled by. Another seemingly overrated Robert Altman movie. Pretty standard fare about disaffected aristocrats and their trivial lives. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/25 Full Review Anderson A O filme é muito bem dirigido, tem ótimos atores e belas atuações, mas como todo filme de época é sempre um pouco lento e sem muita emoção apesar que o plot final do filme é muito bom e a reação da mãe é genuína. 7.0 Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/14/25 Full Review Glafira Regina O The film has a pretty decent rating, but I didn't enjoy it at all. It lasts two hours, and half of the screen time we observe how aristocrats amuse themselves. Too many unneeded plot twists and characters lead to nowhere. And when the murder finally happens, the atmosphere does not change at all. There is no investigation, no thoughts, only the main heroine somehow finding out who did it in the end. Would call "Godsford Park" a detective at all. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/11/25 Full Review Rafael T A huge waste of time. It's not worth watching. It's a good film for sleeping, because it takes 1h20 for something to happen... And that's all, because then the rhythm of the film returns to what it was before (another 50 minutes of lots of sleep and gossip in the mansion). Decoration is cool, beautiful images and historical representation of the 30s, but that's it, the story of the film is...boring, no story really, it doesn't hold you, the characters are interesting, but it doesn't go into any depth - always superficial, it's even difficult to memorize all the characters, as the clothing, haircut and people are similar, it's difficult to keep up with and always hitting the same key with some characters, without development. But that's it, a film basically portraying the class difference that exists, near the end of the British empire, where gossip runs rampant in a mansion full of nobles and their servants. The film manages to maintain such a tedious and slow pace (painful to watch, especially at night - unless your mission is to sleep, then I would recommend it), that it even the murder scene won't wake up. I've watched a lot of movies, but this one is among the worst I've ever watched. Not even low-budget films, like teenager comedy or horror clichés are as bad as this film, which promised a lot, has a good cast and delivered nothing...nothing at all, two hours of conversation and gossip. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review Sandy S A wonderful cast does its best but the script is flabby and the characters unsympathetic. Looks good! Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/01/25 Full Review Pro B I was really looking forward to this with such a high RT rating, but I found it very disappointing. I concluded that most of the reviews were so good because they were written by Americans, who appear to like this sort of twee nonsense stuffed with (that dread term) “national treasures” like Maggie Smith, Stephen Fry and so on. The biggest problem I found with it is that I just didn’t care about any of the characters, so had no real interest in trying to follow what was by any standards a confusing and hugely overpopulated plot. There were a lot of very talented actors, but they were wasted on what was ultimately just a rainy afternoon, instantly forgettable pot boiler.
