Fab film! You know the story (which of course is rousing, patriotic and epic) - as far as cinema is concerned its about what is done with the story that counts, and this Director/cast have whipped up a magical visual feast with only a little licence. Makes you proud to be English! If you like Elizabeth, see this film. If you like history, see this film. If you like cinema, see this film!

I really like this film. very well written

Also found watching the "boelin sisters" helps a lot to fill in the history

Elizabeth - the Golden Age was a fantastic film and a brilliant sequel. Cate Blanchett played elizabeth brilliantly and it was fab to watch. She really portrayed the queen well and it was a shame when the film ended. Film was very moving at times and had good fights and battles. Highly recommended for others to watch. I bought it because i enjoyed the film because i enjoyed the first film elizabeth and wanted to see the sequel to it, im glad i did!!!

Superb performances by the cast and especially Cate BLanchett. Magnificient work of wordrobe, score and art direction.
It's a shame the film didn't do well at the box office!!
