“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, even if the damned thing looked great and even if Ronan and Robbie both gave some solid performances, to be honest, I was never really convinced by this movie. It’s too bad because this historical tale had a lot of potential but, eventually, there was so much ground together and you might wonder if a miniseries might not have been better. I mean, it was a great idea to show the parallels between the 2 queens but I wish they gave us more scenes involving Margot Robbie who, except looking stunning as Queen Elizabeth I, didn’t have much to do after all. Another thing that bothered me was that they kept arguing that Mary Stuart was a form” read more
"I never would have thought it possible to actually make Margot Robbie not look stunning, but they did it. Congrats, make-up team! This movie didn't seem to really know what it wanted to be, another "Marie Antoinette {2006)"?. Another costume period drama? A family film? A thriller? What? "
"29.10. 2020 Scottish protestants don't accept their new catholic queen Mary Stuart who is a devout follower of the Pope. Eventually political scheming seals Mary's fate. John Ford made better film about the same subject but the newest film also has its moments. Politics, religion, and passion has always been a dangerous combination."
