The film is very interesting, but it is only slightly over-produced. A lot of the cold humor of the writer Wilde is lost in the scene. Rupert Everett's role is not as good as Anthony Asquith's 1952 film version, and the effect is also Less than half of the latter. Film critic Pauline Kyle once called Wilde's play "the most absurd work of art ever", an intricate comedy maze. The film tells the story of two gentlemen friends from Belle Epoque from London. For various futility and convenience reasons, they each created their own fictitious selves. Oliver Parker and his actors captured most of the jokes of the show. Reese Witherspoon was the only representative of the American actors among all the actors. His performance was particularly prominent, and whenever Judy Dench appeared in the image of an awesome lady When on the screen, the movie becomes alive. The film is also the least dramatic and best-looking film adaptation of Wilde’s work. It contains several large-scale scenes (including an epic crowded street scene comparable to David Lean), and many Gorgeous shots of luxurious townhouses and magnificent country estates. However, through the opening, the introduction of jazz music and other annoying anachronisms (the worst is the hip tattoo scene), coupled with some widely used action comedies, many of Wilde’s short jokes have not reached the same level as they appear on stage. Effect. The biggest surprise of the film is that Rupert Everett's role is almost as reckless as in "Husband Fails", but his performance is not very good. He and Colin Firth failed to create the evil brotherly chemistry that drives the whole play

Compared with Wilde's original work, a lot of new scenes have been added, including the final revelation of the truth, which has also been changed. Compared with the old CC version of TIOBE, it is much more playful, costumes, music, and exaggerated performances of characters. The footwork of mocking is indeed Wilde's style haha, I really like the part of playing the piano and singing. Sure enough, Colin is holding the guitar, and Rupert must be blahblahblah again on the set
