There are things that should not work (the multiple casting is a touch distracting at the beginning; the transitions between times and storylines is a touch distracting at the beginning) but the performances are good, the distractions ceased to distract after a little while, and it delivers a satisfying story(ies) without neatly tying everything up in a bow. Visually stunning and thoughtfully made. Wow.
And Hugo Weaving wins for most startling make-over (among many, many startling make-overs).
