Ron Howard Tells a True Story of Human Folly and Desperation in 'Eden'

Howard assembles an impressive cast, though it isn't always enough to make up for the overambitious plot of a film that drags in the middle. Yet the historical resonance, which could have provided pointed commentary on the parallels between today and the 1920s, falls flat amid the film's overlong runtime, unlikable characters and shaky accents that most actors stumble in and out of. In the midst of the film's crafted chaos, the story inevitably loses focus.

Netflix is no stranger to grand dramas, but its latest addition, House of Guinness, promises to blend historical authenticity with the sharp edge of modern storytelling. From the mind of Steven Knight, the acclaimed creator of Peaky Blinders, the series takes viewers into the turbulent world of one of Europe's most recognizable families. Set for release on September 25, the drama positions itself as both an origin story and a meditation on legacy, power, and the cost of inheritance.
