Gosford Park (2001)

Endless group scenes talky and boring
26 January 2013
This is a take on the tired Agatha Christie plot: Someone is murdered at a "weekend" gathering in a huge house and it turns out he was "murdered" by more than one person.

This movie is a non ending collage of group scenes with more than 2 people talking at once--this alone is exhausting and irritating. Plot development is distracted to say the least.

The interior set seemed claustrophobic to me too many people too small of spaces.

Mostly the thing is boring. A murder happens after about an hour of endless group scenes..the kitchen the dining table blah blah blah.....

Altman was 77 when he made this turkey. He should have followed Maggie Smith's line in the movie "People should know when to retire."

It is also a feel good Anglo American Jewish PC ensemble piece....

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!
