Obviously very good source material but that in itself does not make a good film. The cast are all okay - Dench as always is very good - but the directing seems to lack assertiveness and vision.

I am of the opinion that Oscar Wilde's play is simply too hilarious to ruin; at the very least, this film has his words to its credit. Its execution is not particularly clever, and comes off very staged in parts, but it's still undeniably fun and more than a little charming.

Pretty and fun enough that I'll rewatch it from time to time. The script is the major star, but Judi Dench is - as usual - a ton of fun to watch whenever she's on screen.

A silly, but charming, romp into 18th century high society. Full of entertaining comic performances. A humorous lighthearted story with clever dialog and funny twists. Also playful music. Two men each concoct a make believe persona and play their phony parts to hilarious effect. The story is complicated and convoluted, but maintains its sense of humor. Frances O'Conner and Colin Firth were wonderful. Reese Witherspoon, Rupert Everett and Judi Dench are also quite entertainment.
