Exactly the hilarious romp I expected from the writing of Russell T. Davies. David Tennant is delightful, charming and sometimes disturbing in the lead role of the most famous seducer in literature. If you are expecting this to be a historically accurate film, you will be disappointed. Anyone who has ever seen Davies Dr. Who work will not be surprised at the unusual parade of characters or Casanova's stance on "morality". Rich costumes, beautiful scenery, creative use of make-up and memorable characters all come together to create a delightful film about judging others and taking excesses too far.
