I watched this movie, but honestly felt like I'd blacked out, and came round at the end feeling confused and disorientated. Brandon Routh, as always, was transcendent

Absolutely hysterical movie. I can't believe this made it into production, but I must admit I was smiling throughout the movie with some drinks in hands. The ballroom dancing in the first scene was impeccable, but the budget went downhill from there. Also it was kind of a musical? They definitely blew their budget on "Time After Time." Minus three stars for being a proponent of the monarchy and capitalism.

Are you really not ashamed of what you have done? Are you really not disgusted by how stereotypically you showed Russian? why? just tell me why, and most importantly why

I'll admit I've been a fan of Emily Carey since she was on the British drama "Casualty"... and I see some of her excellence here, too. She is the only one to hold accent throughout the film, but the directing spoiled much of her talent. The editing is choppy; Rasputin is not portrayed accurately and his costume changes several times; there are scenes in the trailer that were apparently cut from the film. It's a lot of 1980s fluff with little plot to be found. There's no historic accuracy and this must be viewed as a fantasy (as it is justly billed). I wish I could give it a higher rating, but this just wasn't worth the two year wait. Sorry, Emily.

Everything about this movie is bad - the plot, the acting, CGI, filming - nothing deserves a single good word. But then if you're hungover and want to watch some ridiculous trash (as i was when watching it) this might be the movie for you. A princess unfamiliar with concepts like swings and spaghetti? Sure. Some witch credited as Yara the Enchantress being the mastermind behind the 1917 revolution? Sounds credible. Rasputin starting breakdancing for no reason? Gimme more.

If it isn't the cause of God's wrath upon humankind, it is at least another indicator that 2020 is the end of days.
