I concede that it is strangely compelling, but on the downside: horribly misogynistic, eye-wateringly racist (orientalism anyone?), woodenly acted (with a few honourable exceptions, and the children are good), the scripts are really terrible, every plot twist is heralded practically with trumpets, and the exposition is plodding.
I like the music and the map with cogs at the beginning though.
Am I missing something or are we just meant to classify it as enjoyable rubbish (like "Revenge") and get over it?
Cheerfully expecting to be destroyed on this one but would be nice to know I'm not completely alone.
