So, this is really how the Scottish feel about the English? Haha, Politics aside, this is my short review.
This title had me on the edge of my seat. I love it when film makers combine aspects of fiction with historical events, as they did in this film. I wonder if there will be a sequel, especially after that post - credits scene?
Some comments on actor performances:
Ralph Fiennes. It's his world, and we are all living in it! Whether he is running up and down the halls of the Grand Budapest Hotel serving exquisite guests or playing the despicable Amon Goth. He is perfect! But he really does stand out in roles such as that in this film.
I honestly did not know of Rhys Ifans till i saw this title, but playing the controversial and mystic Grigori Rasputin is a tall order, and he nailed it! He made his awkwardness so awkward that it was believable!

This movie will definitely charge up mixed feelings, especially from seasoned film folk, but I have to mention that I haven't seen anything quite like it and that is what builds the interest for me. I does start kind of slow, but kind of keeps the viewer asking subtle questions and wanting to find out what exactly will happen. I clearly fell for the trap as I made it to the other side.
Nevertheless, an excellent cast all round with mixed instances of great acting (you know the usual suspects) and some strange performances as well. Since the movie is new, I will not mention names.
This movie screams out "Political satire" as it progresses and I believe that it somehow tries to show us , from a external perspective, how irrational we can be - politically - and how politicians are able to exploit this even when thing are or about to go awry. One could even claim that it could be a mockery of a certain administration, but that is for you to find out.
For me, 7/10.

All I can say is 'One bad apple spoils the bunch'.
The acting is so bad, I paused the movie intermittently times asking myself if I had to continue.
However, the story line does have some interesting plots.
