While it has been a number of years since seeing the movie, I only remember great things about it.
3 career topping performances, and impeccable technical prowess from Yorgos, on top of the insane power grabbing love triangle being played out on screen, Its hard not to say this is Yorgos's Best (I still haven't seen Poor Things).
And I think about Olivia Colemans Oscar win at least once a week, personal all-timer Oscar moment for me
9/10

10. Flawless and perfect in every way. Colman's Oscar win is an all-time.

I give it an 8, I think. No idea how I would rank the trio as they're all amazing. I think Stone might be my favourite, but then... I dunno. They're all brilliant in completely different ways, so it depends what you like. If you like all of it, you're fucked.

I think Colman is best in show, but Stone and Weisz have the more interesting characters. |

Colman, Stone & Weisz. All 3 are great and nomination worthy

7. Weisz > Stone > Colman.
I have to watch it again perhaps, to figure the Oscar-winner out... I'm far from an expert, but her sexuality and whatever was wrong with her head wasn't every sensible to me (maybe that's the point? but the film does address the reasons a little; regarding her tragic "breedings"). Still, Lanthimos is far more interested to tackle the politicing themes than to portray a serious (a little more sympathetic, how I wish it was) portrait of the central queen.
*also, the scene I posted is so far the best moment in all of his films for me. The gist of all he wants to say; just a positively miserable state to leave these characters to their own... that's why, even though I "enjoyed" Poor Things more (and Stone there is arguably better than anyone here including herself), this might be the slightly better film. It's ending is actually it's best moment, contrary to the other one.

I'll round up to a 10 despite my dislike for Robbie Ryan's pesky fisheye lens. Watching this in theaters was such a treat.
ranking-wise I've always gone with Colman > Weisz > Stone, but that's like ranking meals from Michelin-star restaurants. I have no notes for any of them and I'm so glad they all got nominated.

Sporadically amusing. A formless mess. The winner had the weakest performance of the trio. Add some profanity and some fucking and people think a movie is novel and refreshing. Forgettable fluff. People will rewatch The Departed 16 times before seeing this again.

8.5 A brilliantly entertaing piece but a bit airless when the end credits appear. Stone clearly the best, then Joanna Kulig in Cold War and Mulligan in Wildlife, then Colman and last but not least Weisz.

I'd say 8. Coleman's "character" didn't do much for me, but her performance was of course superb and made for a great win. I liked Weisz the least out of the 3.
