This is my first review, and I am writing coz of less number of reviews and voting for this film. Saw it last night, and must say my patience was tested in first half of movie, after that it became a compelling drama. Potter establishes her characters well, and we get a good insight of characters. I like how she open and closes movie with same scene but different scenarios, and wrapping it up nicely.

The cinematography and background score were apt to the era of 60s, but they made movie look sluggish and this is where the problem lied. Second half is where things pick up, and Ginger realize that along with saving world, she also needs to deal with crisis happening in her world. Elle Fanning is a young actress, and gives a lot of facial expressions, like her sister, but she also infuses life to Ginger. I give it 7.
