Very definitely style over substance... and script.

Rating: 6/10 (10 December 2019)

Except, it isn't really much about the "other" Boleyn girl is it? Eric Bana never could hold a film together, and he can't here either. Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman play the Boleyn girls well enough with strong, if brief, contributions from Kristin Scott-Thomas and Mark Rylance. This is really quite an imperfect adaptation of quite an insipid story from Henry VIII's reign that is one for fans of a good costume drama big on costumes but less so on drama...
