The Young Victoria is an okay movie. It’s somewhat entertaining and decently put together. Performances are solid across the board. The music is a little overdone, and I found it distracting that Victoria’s main theme is also the theme used in Secret Things when Christoph is having sex with his sister!

The problem with the film is that they didn’t write nearly enough dialog for the viewer to be truly drawn into all the court intrigue. The story feels very much like a broad-brush sketch. As a result, at the end of the film, it kind of feels like you didn’t really watch a movie.
