Synopsis

House of Gucci is inspired by the shocking true story of the family behind the Italian fashion empire. When Patrizia Reggiani (Lady Gaga), an outsider from humble beginnings, marries into the Gucci family, her unbridled ambition begins to unravel the family legacy and triggers a reckless spiral of betrayal, decadence, revenge, and ultimately… murder.

Critics Views

Locked in a heated conversation with its own campiness from the moment it starts, ‘House of Gucci’ leverages that underlying conflict into an operatic portrait of the tension between wealth and value.
IndieWire

House of Gucci is an icepick docudrama that has a great deal of fun with its grand roster of ambitious scoundrels, but it’s never less than a straight-faced and nimbly accomplished movie
Variety

Scott looked at all the sordid, unscrupulous and deadly goings-on that ended the Gucci family’s days of running the ‘House of Gucci’ and saw a cartoon. Watching his take on a fashion empire’s downfall…you can sometimes see his point.
Movie Nation

Ridley Scott’s crime drama feels like a soap opera with airs, but its star’s sheer chutzpah ensures it’s never less than watchably raucous.

Audience Comments

Good plot and well acted.
Too long and overwrought
Very entertaining
Great acting as always but In the end I didn’t care about these people.
Last Gaga was very impressive. Could have lost 15 minutes, but an enjoyable film overall.
I liked the evocation of 80s and 90s life, but couldn’t empathise with any of the characters.
Original, laugh & cry, wonderful music and acting and directing
Too long
Excellent cast. Filming spectacular.
Knew nothing about this – v interesting. Lady G was amazing!
So glad to have seen this film as I wasn’t able to go to the cinema when it was first released. A good choice of film for Stockbridge cinema.
Very enjoyable – it was a long film but didn’t feel like it!
In spite of the dark topic the film was beautiful filmed with wonderful settings. Great acting.
I thought it went on far too wonderful fashions, jewellery, music and singing, a mediocre film. However, I’m glad to have seen Lady Gaga!
A bit long with several scenes not really adding to the story – some believable acting though
Good acting apart from Jared Leto (Paulo G) who was way over the top
