Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

tomplatt-75816 Entertaining but ultimately predictable whodunnit. Well acted aside from Nighy who does what you'd expect him to do. Meh

jcoultis This was an awful film. So boring! It was 90 minutes too long. The music hall songs reminded me of a tv programme from the 70s called the good old days, It was so obvious who the killer was!

elenaphysics This was a movie that reminded me a bit of from hell with johny depp and also Penny dreadful. It was solid, well executed. The problem is the the plot is obvious from the beginning. A person who has watched this type or movies, knows what to expect. I can't recall it right now, but I am sure I have seen the same plot again in another movie but without the victorian london background. Nevertheless, the movie is interesting. It has some gruesome murders but it does not show them in a way that your stomach would turn. Because if it did, it would have been a horror movie, unbearable to watch. So luckily it avoided that. The cast was good, I only have objections about Elizabeth Cree. if they could cast another actress ,the whole role concept would enter another level. She is so unbearable and antipathetic that you actually wish for her to hang from the beginning.

christophvteichman I am apparently too stupid to understand the final final plot twist - does anyone? After Lizzie has gone to the gallows and Inspector Kildare has received his well deserved promotion, Dan Leno puts on a show based on Lizzie's life, starting with her hanging. In this show her character is played by her erstwhile nemesis and sometimes maid/substitute in her husband's bed, Aveline. The stage gallows, previously shown to be harmless to whoever gets "hanged", malfunctions and Aveline is killed. Dan then says he'll play Lizzie and puts on a Lizzie wig. In the next shot, however, it is Lizzie herself, not Dan, who's on the stage taking in the audience's applause and adulation. So - are we to conclude that she somehow escaped from prison, manipulated the stage gallows to kill Aveline and take over her role? Or is this just a fantasy? (If so, whose?) I am confused.
