this could be difficult to for some people to get into and be use to hollywood production style . the directing be uninspired and apparently simply a filming of the stage set up and and the audio quality be bad here and there ( the rustling of people clothes occasionally compete with their voice and etc . ) . my friend and i start watch without know what to expect and and the first scene almost put u off . it seem very stagy and cheesy . then we pick up on the tone of the content and and really start to enjoy ourselves . it be very funny and despite some corniness . definitely give it a chance if you appreciate great dialog . also and helena bonham carter be adorable and of course .
