    It’s sumptuous period fare, but suffused with dread and melancholy; a sense of spiders and vermin scuttling over the bowls of pretty bonbons.

    Marie Antoinette starts slowly but should pick up as Antoinette tries to seduce the reluctant Louie and both become monarchs.

    The dialogue is rife with anachronisms. ... Never mind a torrent of vulgarities that seem far more 21st century than 18th. ... For all the dithering—something for which Louis XVI remains famous—"Marie Antoinette" has some very solid performances, notably by Mr. Purefoy, who makes Louis XV kindly, fierce, fatherly and sexually predatory. Ms. Schüle pivots from making Marie a believable child to portraying her as a convincing court politician and schemer.
