Elizabeth: The Golden Age [DVD]

A wonderful movie. I was waiting to get it at a great deal to add to my movie collection. It is a move that I love and will watch over and over again. I have added the Elizabeth movie and The Other Boleyn Girl movie to this collection.

Excellent film, better than the first Elizabeth film, which was also very good. Highly recommended.

My favorite movie, totally love it

If you like period pieces you will really enjoy this movie. If you love Cate Blanchett as I do, and who doesn't, you will enjoy seeing her in this one. It follows the 1998 movie, Elizabeth, in which she also stars. I would highly recommend purchasing them both so you can watch them in the order intended. She is fabulous in both. Another role that was made for her. Also, this movie features Clive Owen as Sir Walter Raleigh. He played it very well. Buy it!

Mom loves it

Defective disc that stops then skips forward during run-time. Otherwise, an excellent movie.

Not as good as the first movie, little rushed in the story cramming too much history in

did not meet my expectations of previous sequel, although good to see her play role as strong role model.

All the overhead shots in glorious English cathedrals cannot make up for the gossamer-thin historical accuracy of this over staged, overdesigned fact-thin production. One glaring example: the ludicrous rendition of the Tilbury speech (which omits the heart and stomach of a king/foul scorn lines; the HEART of the speech), delivered with a youngish Elizabeth (she was middle aged at this point) riding astride (she rode sidesaddle) in full armor (she only wore a breastplate) and natural flowing hair (she wore carefully styled wigs) like a cross between caricatures of Joan of Arc and Lady Godiva. There are also many scenes with almost no dialogue whatsoever, which may be a blessing. Scenery and set design without substance. An AWFUL movie.
