Tony McNamara (The Great, The Favourite, Poor Things) adapted Warren Adler's 'The War of the Roses' without his distinctive black comedy; the most innovative thing about this version is the sarcastic repartee between the two Brits - Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch, who also exec produced - and how it's received by their American friends. Cue dinner party scene where the Yanks try to do it themselves and fail.
Kate McKinnon, Andy Samberg, Ncuti Gatwa, Sunita Mani, Zoe Chao, Jamie Demetriou, Allison Janney.
It's rather over-edited. We quite enjoyed it - wasn't the best or worst thing we'd seen.
It was actually filmed in Devon. It was? No way!
