I was determined to see this movie whether it was good or bad. I was born in 1993; I was only four years old when Princess Diana died so I never knew a whole lot about Princess Diana other than the fact that she was a Royal, she was involved in charity work and she was loved by the people so when I read the blurb for this movie and realised that it only covered the last two years of her life I figured that I should probably do some research before I saw the movie. I have to say that I really enjoyed the movie. I found myself shocked at how accurate certain details were but also wanting more details in other areas. Dodi Fayed barely says two words in the film which I was disappointed about because he was the last man that Diana was with before she died and the film really didn't give viewers a chance to get to know him at all. I also wanted more detail surrounding her death, especially because of all the conspiracy theories surrounding Diana's death. We don't actually see Diana's death happen in the film, we only see beforehand when she is leaving her hotel in Paris and then the aftermath. These are the only criticisms I have of the film and that is only because I am a curious person and wanted to keep watching it so I could see what happened next.
Although this film has been a huge flop with the critics, Naomi Watts should win an Oscar for her portrayal because she was incredible. Her mannerisms of Diana were impeccable. If you want to be super impressed with this movie, I recommend that you watch Diana's interview on Panorama and Diana's Landmine Program, both of which you can find on Youtube. I thoroughly enjoyed the film and would happily watch it again.
