Review of Gothic (1987) by Mickey R — 16 Sep 2013

This movie is anything but good. The story is flawed (a fervent believer in an angry christian God wouldn't dream of commiting suicide to make his troubles go away), the acting is overdone, Gabriel Byrne fails miserably at portraying an intriguing Byron (more a stuck up weirdo who if not rich would be an outcast everywhere) and the costumes and setting can't stand up to even close observation with things like lightbulbs and streaming water.
