What a lot of people aren't getting here is that this isn't actually a horror movie (though it is fairly creepy etc), it's a comedy. I'm not into scary movies, but the cast brought me here. Excellent cast and performances. Excellent art direction. Good writing/directing. Smart/funny/cute.

Good story. Really good performances for 'Rose' and 'Wallis'. 'Grantham' could have used a bit more direction or editing. Refreshing diversity in casting. Attention to detail not always so obvious, but really cool stuff through-out. 'Rose' and 'Wallis interplay was great. Fun humor - particularly from 'Rose.'

This is really well done. It's subtleties make this movie particularly good. Performances are very well balanced - not overdone, a lot of really good non-verbal delivery. Olivia is brilliant and Vincent nails it too. Great editing/pacing. Great cinematography. Perfect shots of incredible vistas, wildlife, weather, the sea. On location to Antarctica - can't imagine pulling that off. All locations actual - including the tight confines of the ship (required shooting through mirrors). Very effective music score. Main potential criticism is lack of story, but I don't think that's the case. There's a magnitude of story and many layers between the lines - though appreciation is likely reliant on the viewer's degree of personal life experience.
