Definitely Under-rated. One of 2008's Best Films So Far.

Rating: 8/10 (11 June 2008)

A terrific story with excellent multi-dimensional characters; particularly the 4 leading female actresses; most particularly Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johanssen. I'd never have given either credit for the brilliant job they do here. One of the few films for adults, I'd like to say that when I was an 11 year old boy (since 90% of Hollywood product is targeted at 11 year old boys) we would have enjoyed a film like this, and learned something from it.
When you watch the almost G rated sex scenes with Scarlett Johanssen you can understand why she was named #1 in sex appeal in a recent poll.
As the Episcopal Church was created for the ill purpose of providing the King with a means toward his unjust divorce, as well as to allow his false marriage to Ann Boleyn, these ill deeds --- including the head-chopping of moral men -- seems of comparable high purpose in light of the recent split in the Episcopal Church to allow the consecration of a man who divorced his wife and dumped his children in order to have sex with his buddy. As Liberals steer their church into the abyss and attempt to force compliance through extortion, righteous persons stand strong, as their leader the Archbishop of Canterbury -- spineless and weak -- does nothing at all. Thus does history repeat itself.
Sex and the City is definitely this years's chick flick, but this excellent historic drama stands right there with it; both films strongly recommended for men.
