Lady of the Manor

Try poor script wasted on a group of strong acting potential. Low budget and it shows. Do not waste your time with this one not much to like here.

Any film with Melanie Lynskey is worth watching. Justin Long, with his brother Christian, makes his directorial debut here. It won’t win awards, but it’s a fun, feel-good ride.

Though I like Judy Greer, and also found Melanie Lynskey quite alright in 2 1/2 men, this movie here is just silly nonsense, forcing one to fast-forward through 90% of it. It's simply childish beyond believe. 2/10 points.

I thought this would be a fun historical romp but the language was so foul and pervasive it was mostly vulgar and trashy. Don't waste your time. Beneath Judy Greer in the staring role.

predictable, not very funny....tried to watch 'til the end but couldn't stomach it. Had to turn it off.

As a fan of the cast, and even the writers-directors' podcast, I was seriously underwhelmed… The premise was cute enough for a buddy movie, I expected nothing more. It honestly felt like a tween boys' idea of a great movie, and I don't mean the intelligent ones. It felt like a thrown together loooong skit that would not have made it through Wed night writers' room on SNL. This is what happens when no one challenges your ideas. I'm especially sad that the 2 lady leads, who it seemed had finally gotten the recognition they deserve, were actually lowered a few rungs by this sophomoric at best, frat house for 5th grade boys raised by wolves. It could have worked without the endless crass humor, massive airtime to wholly unrelated bongs, and general direction toward the lowest possible bar. Definitely disappointed and surprised. I root for the underdog and I really wanted these brothers to prove their mettle. I expected low budget production values. I expected silly, even stupid, I'm not above dumb jokes, but THIS was painful. #cringefest #dobetter

This was such an awful movie that had such great potential. The gratuitous vulgarity was the beginning of the end and it was painful to watch.

[Spoiler Alerts] The talents of the actors were wasted on this predictable, barely watchable, almost insulting movie full of hackneyed clichés. Elegant lady trying to train up a slob (ala My Fair Lady, et al.), black servants winning out over unlikable white folks without even trying (ala Driving Miss Daisy, et al.), even tasteless fart jokes played too often, it's all here, with poor dialog, an underlying story of police entrapment into child molestation, and mail-it-in performances from actors who should do better. I would have shut it off early, but my wife wanted to hang in until the end. Don't bother.

Lady of the Manor's off-beat attempt at humor couldn't match the amount of acting talent they had lined up. Lynskey's irreverence gets old about half way through, but it's a decent afternoon flick.

Worst movie ever. Bad acting, dumb story line. Just wasn't executed well at all. Foul language is over the top bordering on ridiculous.
