This is a really good Period Drama. Very nicely photographed and easy to follow. Grab some popcorn, sit back and enjoy the movie!

This review is from: Deacon Brodie (DVD)

Sorry, but I'm not even going to waste my time doing a scene by scene analysis. I bought this movie because I love Billy Connelly and have, in the past, found him to be extremely funny -- in the John Cleese sense and beyond -- in everything I've ever seen him in. Even in "Mrs. Brown," Connelly's edgy, wild nature comes through that staid character.

But not here.

No, here I was quite disappointed. Despite the occasional HINT of his humorous approach to life and the world, the director stupidly failed to take advantage of Connelly's vitality and incredibly wonderful, soul-shaking sense of humor.

So should you see this film? Yes. Should you buy it? Sure...used.
