The flitting glimpses of interesting moments and grand rooms don't shape into much of a narrative here, perhaps because the people featured also seem detached from a greater purpose.

Armchair travellers will revel in this opportunity to see such a superb collection as well as all the toil and passion behind it.

Feels like a cursory guided tour.

The Great Museum is a beautiful love letter to obsession and eccentricity, the love is given and received in equal measure.
