Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for families and anyone who loves a strong drama. Works for the whole couch, from little ones up.

- The pace
- Unhurried and epic, at 2 hr 36 min.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
