Elizabeth: The Golden Age

here I can't say the same thing I said about the first one (1998) - oh guys... the movie is cool, but it's SO slow, but SO slow, that it irritated me at a certain point, because I didn't think it would get anywhere! - In the first film, the screenplay followed a whole thread that knew how to bring facts that really contributed to the development of the film... here, the film is all full of cuts that show different moments of queen elizabeth (already fixed on her throne ) but for ME they didn't add up to practically anything! it gets very boring at a certain point in the movie - luckily I can say that Cate Blanchett managed to carry this movie on her back to make me watch it until the end (she has superb moments during the movie, I LOVED it) - besides, the costumes are GORGEOUS and they manage to surpass themselves at every moment of the film - Anyway, if you watched the first movie and like that kind of movie, it's worth checking out the sequel, otherwise... - an ''ok'' movie and only

It has a terrific art direction, just like the photography. The beauty of this movie is almost renaissance. My eyes are grateful!
