"The Other Boleyn Girl" Review
The Professor gives it a
D.
IMDB plot synopsis: Two sisters contend for the affection of King Henry VIII.
Oh my gawd. Gag me with a spoon. For sure.
The costumes were gorgeous. The cinematography, interesting (although some hand-held, jerky shots rather jarred.)
I'm trying to find something more nice to say, but I'm grasping at straws, here.
Let's put it this way. Someone in the audience was zapping the screen with a laser pointer. There were nervous giggles from the audience at the intended "points of tension." And, given that it's a historical about Anne Boleyn -- the "eeuuuww"s from the audience were NOT about the executions. That's all I'm sayin'.
And could Natalie Portman have chewed more scenery? Could Scarlett Johannsen have been more sweetly insipid? Gack.
Yes, it's worse than "The Spiderwick Chronicles," which were merely formulaic and boring.
I am not going out to buy the novel.
Save your money.
