Our Favourite Quotes Of Why The New Diana Film Is So Bad

Apparently the film is utter shit. We feel a bit bad for Naomi Watts and Naveen Andrews, as they’ve been alright in other films, but we’ve seen the trailor and it looked pants. 

 

Anyway, we digress, here’s our favourite quotes from the British Press about why ‘Diana’ is so shit. 

 

Director, Oliver Hirschbiegel, best pop his hands over his ears for a couple of minutes. 

 

“A cheap and cheerless effort that looks like a Channel 5 mid-week matinee”. David Edwards, The Mirror

 

“Wesley Snipes in a blonde wig would be more convincing.” David Edwards, The Mirror (again)

 

“Creepy weepie that will make you sleepy”. Christopher Tookey, Daily Mail

 

“The major problem, predictably, comes with the dialogue, which involves characters telling each other things they already know. ‘I am a heart surgeon!’ declares heart surgeon Khan [Naveen Andrews]. Yes, we get it.” David Gritten, Daily Telegraph

 

“The Queen of Hearts has been recast as a sad-sack singleton that even Bridget Jones would cross the street to avoid. David Edwards, The Mirror (again, ok we like his review the best!)

 

“The awful truth is that, 16 years after that terrible day in 1997, Diana has died another awful death.” Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

 

We’re not sure whether these reviews will make people want to go and see how bad the film is for themselves, but we’re going to wait for it to come on the tele ourselves. Pain & Gain will do for our cinema trip… it’s more on our level.
