평점 및 리뷰

If you're thinking about watching this movie as someone who has never heard of this story before and are hoping for a moderately entertaining period piece on the trials and tribulations of Anne Boleyn, then this movie will fit the bill. However, if you are a fan of the book and the captivating story that is tells of Mary Boleyn, and her depraved, yet fascinating, sister Anne, then prepare to be sorely disappointed. All the charm, intrigue, and emotion of Phillipa Gregory's novel is completely lost on this film. Mary, the narrator of the novel whose story is central to the plot, becomes a mere supporting character to her sister in the movie which is basically a rushed summary of Anne's rise and fall. Scarlett Johansson is perfectly cast as the demure Mary Boleyn, making it even more disappointing that her talent was wasted on this poor adaption of the story. What helps to save the film from being a complete failure are the beautiful costumes and art direction, but if you're a fan of the book, not even that will stop you from inevitably saying after watching this film what most do after seeing a movie based on a novel, that,"It was ok, but the book was better."

One of the things that fueled Anne Boleyn is that she was absolutely determined not to be used and discarded by Henry 8th like her sister Mary Boleyn. I think she loved her sister Mary, who came out ok in the end because her children became Elizabeth I's favorite cousins. Both sisters were remarkable women, but Anne had the courage to defy Woolsey and to defy the Catholic Church. Anne put steel in Henry's backbone! Bravo for Anne!

Ms. Johanson, Ms. Natalie, Redmayne and their portrayal of Monarchy decisions and in -decisions , i would recommend it to people for the use in tenses , grammar , colors and very notable mixes ,how the mention of the Vatican was very helpful, the Old and very strong buildings ,Mary seem to have it a lot and was instantly the King's Bride well obviously Anne was improve after she just back from the French Monarch, lets refer to it as grooming but still very lacking in the morals and character which Mary,had been endowed with,There was an obvious and pressing demand to survive,their family needed the resources the King was their sole source,God keep the King,yes and also the Pope.
