Movie Reviews
This film looks beautiful and has a certain atmosphere that warmed me to the characters and initially the story line. Perfect performances from Mr Rickman and Ms Winslett; their scenes together are little gems. I felt Winslett's role was lacking in terms of character background. The explanation of her troubled past felt like an after thought and rushed. By this time I felt little empathy and felt a little cheated. I wonder if certain key scenes had been deleted to fit the time-scale allowed. So perhaps the title, A little Chaos, is quite fitting. Overall a sweet film and I would watch it again on television for the scenes that I really did enjoy.
