    65/100 I can probably understand why this movie is popular: a court Mary Sue drama where men and women are reversed, and a biography that celebrates the harmonious relationship between ruler and minister. There's great mise-en-scene and art direction, and Dench's excellent performance. In addition, it also inspired the feeling of "people take tea and cool", although it is difficult to really appreciate Abdul's excellence from beginning to end in the story.
