Eddie Kaziro reviews the highly anticipated period-parody.
Eddie Kaziro, Nouse, 7th January 2019The Favourite: a laugh rate on a par with Airplane!
Consistently, relentlessly hilarious, Olivia Colman, Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone are on top form in this deranged court comedy.
Christopher Hooton, The Independent, 2nd January 2019Review: The Favourite
With a running time of just under two hours, The Favourite positively gallops along, making me laugh out loud and, occasionally, gasp in surprise. It would be very hard to think of a more enjoyable way to begin a new year's viewing.
Philip Caveney, Bouquets & Brickbats, 2nd January 2019The Favourite is a vicious, rollicking period comedy
Colman's Queen Anne is sweet and giddy and transparently bonkers.
Ryan Gilbey, The New Statesman, 2nd January 2019The Favourite - review from Mark Kermode
Yorgos Lanthimos's tragicomedy set in the court of Queen Anne boasts daring performances from its three female stars and lashings of lust, intrigue and deceit.
Mark Kermode, The Guardian, 30th December 2018Review: The Favourite
Despite its appearance, with exquisitely realised production design and costume work, a normal period drama this is not. It's a joy to spend a couple of hours in its macabre, off-kilter world.
Ross Miller, The National (Scotland), 28th December 2018The Favourite review
Yorgos Lanthimos's absurdist take on the court of Queen Anne is wildly entertaining.
