Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016) by Viet Phuong N — 23 Sep 2016
Not as good as "Marguerite", not too bad though, for a film full of over-the-top actings like this. Meryl Streep is as dependable as ever, but it is Hugh Grant that stole the show with his back-to-form role.
Still, the script does not possess the same depth as "Marguerite", and the obvious casualties are the lack of character development (the supporting characters are especially disappointing, in comparison with the very impressive cast of "Marguerite") and a somewhat disappointingly conventional ending.
A fine film, but "Marguerite" is preferable.
