Superb photography but I am not sure about the history. It was the wind not the fire-ships which destroyed the Armada and where are the famed quotes about not making windows into men;s souls and her best lines before the Armada at Tilbury? I do not think this was at all an anti-catholic film. As far as England is concerned, Catholic Spain and its supporters were the enemy. A good tonic for a patriotic Englishman.
July 28, 2008Having enjoyed the first 'Elizabeth' so much, I was prepared to be disappointed in the second. It was reviewed as more concerned with costuming than acting. Call me crazy, I loved it. Cate Blanchett is a powerful Elizabeth. At no point did I feel the costumes outweighed the cast. While the first movie is still my favorite, I wouldn't have missed this.
July 26, 2008Cate Blanchett does a convincing job of portraying Elizabeth I as she grapples with her enemies, the Catholic government of Spain and her cousin, Mary Queen of Scots. She dispatches both of them quite neatly, but not before she gets to wear fabulous costumes and flirt with Sir Walter Raleigh who becomes enamored with Bess, her lady-in-waiting. The movie has some spectacular battle scenes and good acting (mostly by Blancett) and gives the viewer a brushing-up on somewhat-accurate English history.
July 12, 2008I hope the stars made a lot of money doing this turkey. Too much of nothing.

I love this movie if not for anything else, the fantastic costumes, cinematogrphy and Cate Blanchett's performance. She looks brilliant as Queen Elizabeth and her acting is incredible. She's the best, along with Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts. This is a film that takes you on a journey like a time machine, and you are met by Cate Blanchett as Elizabeth. She captivates you with all of her flair and queeny nuances. The story is bizarre but then again so were those times of wine and roses, "let them eat cake" so they say. This is a film that showcases the old school diva. Elizabeth was the first diva, she is OG, she is gangsta.
