Lack of good storyline.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This is a decent attempt at re telling a part of Diana's life. Naveen Andrews is very good as Khan and Watts is certainly a passable Diana. It's a love story of course and people wanting a biopic should look elsewhere. If you put aside the fact it's Diana it's simply a love story of two people who are destined to not end up together trying to find a way to be. A decent watch and recommended.

When I heard about this movie I thought it was going to be a more or less biographical film, like the ones that were already made for other personalities (and it seems that, after "The Queen" and "Iron Lady", the trend is to take British personalities of most recent decades). But this movie was far from it. In fact, I don't know to what extent this film is biographical because its not able to decently tell the life of Diana Spencer, who went down in history as Princess of Wales by marrying the heir to the British crown. If we don't have well present in memory all her life we will leave the room without completely understanding the film, because it explains very little and focuses more on the time after the separation of the royal couple. And let's face it, many of us no longer remember her life. More than ten years have passed since her death and almost no one has an elephant's memory.Then we have Naomi Watts in the lead role. She is a good actress and was certainly a solid bet of the director, Oliver Hirschbiegel. The physical resemblance between her and the late princess is evident and was well used, but it lacks to this Diana the good script and solid dialogues that would give to the film a quality that, in this way, does not have. Anyway, since Diana is such a beloved personality even today, it took some courage to make the film, and so I can consider it was a merit effort, even if it failed at what was essential.

I had high expectations for this film. I actually stopped watching halfway through because I found it boring. It didn't pull me in like I expected it too.Some points are interesting and thought provoking, but overall non engaging. There was something about Diana and Hasnat that seemed off, like the chemistry wasn't fully there. It was also extremely slow moving, which was why I stopped halfway through. Also was not that impressed with Naomi Watts' performance. Especially when she's in Africa tending the sick children, all she did was ask what was wrong with them, frowned, and then moved onto the next kid. I'm sure Princess Diana probably did more than that and I wished they had shown that.

Let's face it, a score of 5.4 usually means "don't bother" Either a poor-ish film by somebody known for better output or a foolish romp involving American high school kids This deserves a bit of retrospection (is there any other way to look at films?). OK, it's going to be difficult to find an actor that looks exactly like Diana,but by the end Naomi had me convinced and arousing in me the same feelings(sadness, shame)I had at the time.I liked the way the Windsors were dealt with in the film, there would be no point in turning this love story into a who done it. If this is close to the truth, then how very, very sad. I implore everyone who went through the Diana years to watch this
