Stonehouse (2023)
Disappointing portrayal
27 January 2023 - 6 out of 12 users found this review helpful.
Too young to remember the events I can't tell if the nation thought this saga was funny at the time. As such, I found the portrayal of the MP as a bungling, inept buffoon as unnecessary. The addition of comedic sounds whenever the protagonist appears is irritating. Close to unwatchable. I can imagine this story being gripping if retold as if the main character was clever, calculating, manipulative and deceptive. There's room in the true events to add suspense and anger.
One the plus side, the wardrobe and props were fabulously 1960's. The acting was ok, especially the interactions with Stonehouse with his wife. Not for me this one.
