    LOVE a good dinner party. This was so much fun. Entire cast was fantastic. Really tight script. Great stuff.

    Imagine pitching a canoe chase, muskets, subtitles, and those wigs to executives today. Studios would never.

    Mann proves again to be a master of action set pieces.

    Somewhere in here there is a Five Star movie. We are given a glance at a young Edgar Allen Poe, played by Harry Melling, in his early years covering the events that lead him to who he would become. The atmosphere, setting, design and acting all work in its favor. The winter setting, chilliness of the location really set a bleak gothic tone.

    Unfortunately it’s bogged down by an inconsistent pace, a muddled final act, and twists which didn’t quite land for me. I wanted to love this, and almost did! Still a worthwhile watch and an intriguing story.

    Would sit through a marathon of “The Tonight Show with Kenneth Marshall” just for a chance to sniff Kai’s tea.
