Fiennes, an actor who disappears into roles like ice in a teacup, makes the Duke a complex and almost sympathetic figure, a bulky, unappealing man whose interests are in all the wrong things.

Keira wears a series of gorgeous frocks and runs through her full repertoire of smirks and simpers... But if you can look past the dresses and the sullen lips, then you have to admit that [she] delivers another solid performance.

Knightley and Cooper don't ever generate much in the way of chemistry.

a refreshing look at British royalty, and it will curb your want to be part of that era, age and societal level

The Duchess doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is: a comfortable, low-calorie morsel of historical drama.

The Duchess is clearly Knightley's movie, ultimately rising or falling on her performance. She's up to the task, capturing both the charm and grace that made Georgiana so captivating.

There's something really special about Kiera Knightly in these period pieces.

Everything you'd expect it to be: a well-acted British period piece with lavish attention to period detail, about discontented characters in a royal family. And that's about it.

It chronicles the saga of a vibrant and forward-thinking woman hampered by the constraints of a rigid society.

At its simplest, it's a gorgeous film with beautiful period costumes and intricate set designs. However, something tells me that's not the level director Saul Dibb wanted to achieve greatest on.

It's disturbingly shallow, focused so tightly on one woman's feelings of repression and loneliness that it lacks any perspective on their causes.
