Ah, those Russians

Watching Rasputin with Rickman as the mad monk. How can something which such gorgeous locations and absolutely top-flight cast be so uninteresting? With the help of an over-obvious script, methinks.

ETA: They could lose the Star Trek lighting too. Also, Rasputin just quoted Sir Walter Scott. Sign of the times: when the astonished spies observe the Empress shagging R, they have an amusing struggle over who gets the binocs, then one of them took out a black object; I assumed it was his mobile phone.
