If you want to! Watch it for Natalie Portman

Rating: 7/10 (19 April 2008)

Just watched this movie and must say I was disappointed by the treatment to this royal subject. This subject required more screen time than under 2 hrs as after the movie the feeling you are left with is there should have been more, more in detailed. But apart from less details in the story, acting is superb and especially by Portman. Natalie Portman definitely deserves praises and awards for her depiction of 'Anne', she is simply brilliant. Her portrayal of the Other Boleyn Girl gives her everything, every space to show off her skill as an actress and she does that with complete authority. Scarlett too is good in her role, and so are other actors. Again among another negative aspect of the movie in Eric Bana, he is a very good actor but he had nothing to do in this movie and also for me he wasn't at his best either and at any time didn't feel like he is the King of England, he lacked that authority. But watch this movie if you want to, only for Natalie Portman, she not just looks good throughout the movie her acting is wonderful too.
