Has its moments and is well shot but had a hard to time really getting in to this, though guess I enjoyed the chaos and backstabbing within the family. On the other hand, found the Italian accents to be laughable at times and Jared Leto was just ridiculous under that makeup (in conjunction with his accent). Not terrible and at least watchable, though could've been a tad shorter. **2.75/5**

It isn't often that I can say this, but for me the best actor by a country mile here is Jeremy Irons. He plays the aging Rodolfo, whom along with his far more flamboyant brother Aldo (Al Pacino) owns and runs the legendary Italian fashion house. His son Maurizio (Adam Driver) falls in love with Patrizia (Lady Gaga) who the daughter of a trucking company owner and needless to say his dad is less than impressed. He proceeds to cut his son off, but … read the rest.

This movie really struggled with pacing. All the time I found myself surprised at how big the jumps in time were, even though everything is chronological. Overall I think they were working from a compelling story but just couldn't quite tell it in a way that was captivating. The film could only hold my attention for half of its length.

I’m finding it very difficult to figure out where to begin with House of Gucci. I could start where the movie started, the last morning of Maurizio Gucci’s (Adam Driver) life. Or, I could start with Lady Gaga’s bizarre Italian accent as Patrizia Reggiani. There’s also the extremely questionable prosthetics used fo…

<em>'House of Gucci'</em> makes for good viewing.
I enjoyed the performances of Lady Gaga and Adam Driver, with the former being the film's best in my opinion - she is two for two now after <em>'<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/a-star-is-born-2018/" rel="nofollow">A Star Is Born</a>'</em>, so I'm keen to see what she produces for <em>'<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/joker-folie-a-deux/" rel="nofollow">Joker: Folie à Deux</a>'</em>.

I'm glad I watched this but am slightly disappointed that there was surprisingly less action than suggested in the trailer - yes I know that could be said of every film but in this one, there wasn't any. Even the promised murder was unremarkable. However, it's well worth brushing up on the history of that handbag you're so proud of. It's worth watching but if you're interested in fashion biographies, then Coco before Chanel is better, and if you'… read the rest.
