#Spencer was one of the most claustrophobic cinematic experiences I've had all year. The first two acts are treated almost like a horror movie, with paranoia and the inability to escape seeping through the grand walls of Sandringham. Kristen Stewart is as magnificent as you've... pic.twitter.com/MxgIApHWU2

#Spencer was astonishing with a career-defining performance from Kristen Stewart. Drenched in atmospheric dread and nervous energy, SPENCER feels more like a horror movie than a drama (which I loved). This’ll be a film that’ll sit with me for a long time. pic.twitter.com/royZox8rQQ

However, many were not too pleased with the venture despite liking Kristen Stewart. They termed the movie as 'boring.'
Saw 2 movies in the theatre this week. Thought #GhostbustersAfterlife was fun and nostalgic. #SpencerMovie well Kristen Stewart was good, the movie was boring as hell.
