Quick Review: As stunning to look at as it's hard to follow, this exquisite period piece based on the novel of the same name boasts with one of the most ravishing cinematography, lavish production design, and lush scenery this genre has to offer, but it never manages to grab you, and engage you on a deeper level, due to its inconsistent and emotionless love story, feeling a bit too 'carried away'. Weisz gives it her all, but her appeal is not enough to make up for the lazily-adapted script.
