Bit of a soapie I guess. Gary Oldman is acting his tits off as Ludwig here but there's something that misfires just a little. He would have won an Oscar apparently but this came out in the same year as Tom Hanks was up for Forrest Gump.
Compared to Amadeus (as inevitably this must be) this is less compelling but that is what happens when good lines up against great.
The movie does not deserve it's poor reputation (see IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes scores)
ABM Rating 2.5/3
