Impressive visuals but underwhelming conclusion

"House of Gucci" is a beautifully shot picture with great people involved. It is somewhat underwhelming and a tad too long, but there are great moments sprinkled throughout the movie.The film is based on the real murder of Maurizio Gucci and the downfall of the Gucci family. It all begins when Patrizia Reggiani marries into the Gucci family and the rest is history.Lady Gaga is great as the ambitious Patrizia Reggiani but she is also inconsistent with her performance. Pacino, Driver and Leto are good per usual. It is however a daring choice by the filmmakers to have the actors speak in English with an Italian accent. It is not a huge problem, but it does occasionally take the viewer out of the experience.The first forty minutes of the movie are great. The characters are well introduced, and the plot is intriguing. The rest of the movie does not maintain this standard. The last 30 minutes are beyond underwhelming and the climax is cold and emotionless.There are issues with "House of Gucci" but the production design is not one of them. The film is beautifully shot and the locations look great. "House of Gucci" is very stylish and the costume department really outdid themselves.With everything said, "House of Gucci" is a decent film with outstanding visuals and great acting. If you like fashion, then you should give this movie a watch. It is beautiful and quite enjoyable despite its excessive runtime.

First rate cast, popcorn movie

It's not nearly as bad as some feel it is but it isn't necessarily at the level it was expected to be.I particularly liked Lady Gaga, Al Pacino and Salma Hayek . I would have liked more scenes between Gaga and Hayak .I thought Adam Driver did well as Mauriizo Gucci who Gaga's character Patrizia marries and has her own ideas about the Gucci company. As Maurizo Driver plays him as a bit of enigma. He's originally trying to be independent from his family and his father ( well played by Jeremy Irons) he's disinherited but his father brings him back into the family fold after Patriza has a daughter. But without the Will signed they look to Maurizo's uncle Aldo ( Pacino) who's all about family. In fact it's Maurizo's buying Aldo and his son out that Aldo finds the bigger betrayal ( not Maurizo and Patriza turned him in on tax evasion with a little help for Aldo's son Paolo ( Jared Leto. But Paolo never meant for his father to go to prison ( for a year and a day) . I would also have liked an additional scene between Pacino and Driver after Maurizo's buys Aldo and Paolo out . That said the movie runs a bit long .Back to Driver's performance it's difficult to tell if Maurizo just got caught up in doing something different with the house of Gucci he never seemed as into it all as Patrizia but he grew tired of her as well and takes up with an old friend. This is when Patrizia plots his murder with Pina ( Salma Hayek) . All comes crumbling down and Patrizia, Pina and the hit men are caught and convicted. Aldo and Paolo didn't survive long and due to Maurizo's poor management he was dealt the same fate he delivered to his own family and lost control of Gucci. No member of the family has had a part in Gucci for nearly two decades.The story is of family, fortune won and lost, backstabbing and revenge but it's not that you will probably feel bad for anyone involved ,it's entertaining and I was never bored . It's more of a popcorn movie with interesting performances. Leto is unrecognizable but you won't forget about him! Gaga is good as the calculating Patrizia who charms her way into the family that has a big part in destroying it . Salma Hayek as Pina a psychic who got to invested with Patrizia and couldn't seem to see her own fate if she didn't back off. Pacino and Irons play brothers who couldn't be more different but want to keep the family and business together. Leto plays the over the top Paolo and Driver is the hardest to figure out in film that's not so subtle.
