Product description

Big budget Hollywood adaptation of the historical novel by Philippa Gregory. The story is a fictionalised account of the life of Mary Boleyn (Scarlett Johansson) who was mistress to King Henry VIII (Eric Bana) before he married her sister, Anne (Natalie Portman). Set during one of the most dramatic periods in British regal history, the narrative focuses on the relationship and rivalry between the two Boleyn girls and the power game being played by their family in which the sisters are mere pawns. When Mary is ousted in favour of Anne, she leaves the King's Court to marry a commoner, but is compelled to return when her sister embarks on a reckless plan to try and save herself from ruin.

Great actors. Very good quality.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 May 2008
This is an impressive Hollywood movie and by using the word "Hollywood" I mean it's the usual trend of making a visualy great film with impressive costumes,stages, surroundings etc with some big names in the main roles and with a rather weak scenario with historical inaccuracies and gaps.
This movie is visually flawless with excellent costumes with attention to detail, the places that have been chosen for the outside scenes are very good and beautiful and the stages for the inside scenes are also very well done and detailed.
The scenario has gaps in the story and there are some historical inaccuracies although the main story, names and places are correct. This movie is based on a successful novel and unfortunately it's very difficult to add everything in a two hour film so it's lets say a necessary evil that some facts will be left out of the movie. In this film's case although a few gaps are indeed a bit noticeable and they could probably have been worked in a better way in order not to be so obvious, they aren't really so important as the film's purpose and its main story is to show the rivalry of the two sisters as they were battling to win the king's heart, not to show what happened to Mary's first husband or how Ann was spending her time in France! In my opinion the film succeeds in its goal and the rivalry between the two sisters as well as the intrigue at the court and in their family is well documented.
Eric Bana who plays Henry is just average as there are a lot of other actors that could have played the role much more persuasive and it's a pity that his acting doesn't add anything to the film. His acting is weak and without depth, not the sort of performance you expect from someone who tries to portrait a character like Henry's!
Johansson plays Ann's sister Mary and she's good enough and of course beautiful enough but again there are others that could have been much better. Her playing is somewhat weak like Bana's although she has a few interesting moments the credit of which should mostly go to the script than to her acting.
Portman plays Ann and her performance is one of the film's highlights and actually I would say perhaps the main highlight! She's very persuasive in her role, she's cunning, smart, ruthless and desperate when she has to be and she's one of the film's main strengths. The film's last part when Ann is desperate to give Henry a male heir and later she's found guilty of treason and sentensed to death is really touching and she makes you feel sorry for her. And the dresses of the Tudor period are looking great on her as well!
I didn't give the film 5 stars because of the performances of Bana and Johansson which are just good but not exceptional and such historical movies in my opinion requires exceptional performances in order to offer that little extra to the presentation of the various historical characters. Fortunately Portman's performance is really great and this alone worths an extra star on the movie's rating scale.
All in all the movie is well worth watching and it mostly does what it promises, nothing more nothing less.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 July 2008
The Other Boleyn Girl is a historical novel written by British author Philippa Gregory, based on the life of 16th-century aristocrat Mary Boleyn, sister of Queen Anne Boleyn.It was a phenomenal success and popularity. I still remember when I bought the book "The Other Boleyn Girl" at a bookshop at Angel in LDN. I was hooked from page one. That lasted to the very last page. I honestly can not say that about the movie.

My disappointment does not result from historic side of thing as I am not expecting a movie (or a novel) to be historical accurate. However, this movie does not really catch the essence of the story told by Philippa Gregory, is not "round" and never really graps one. There are huge gaps in the story told and only if one really knows one's history one can follow. I particuarly dislike the last scene when it looks like that Mary Boleyn raises the future Queen Elisabeth I.

It is however a sumptous movie. I like the costume design done by Academy Award-winner Sandy Powelland and the whole setting. Natalie Portman as Anne Boleyn, Scarlett Johansson as Mary Boleyn and Eric Bana as Henry VIII were performing well without being brilliant. Both were by far outshone by Kristin Scott Thomas as Lady Elizabeth Boleyn and Ana Torrent as Catherine of Aragon. The scene when Catherine of Aragon kneels before the king when the court is going to judge her marraige is one of the best. But that is not the main story. The performance of Mark Rylance as Thomas Boleyn, father of the girls, I did not like at all.

It is not a waste of time to watch this movie, but do not have too high hopes.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 December 2008
I am quite shoked by some of the bad reviews for this film, so OK maybe not all of the content is historically correct but so what??! If your full of historical knowledge and you are looking for the facts and comparing notes then maybe this film isn't for you but if you want to be entertained then I can't really fault this film. The acting is excellent with superb performances from Scarlett Johansson and Eric Bana, the storyline (true or not true) is compelling and easy to follow with some incredibly passionate and emotional scenes. I found it a real pleasure to watch and will definately watch this film again.

C'è chi dice che i film storici possono annoiare. Può essere per alcuni, ma non per questo. Intrigante, avventuroso, ricco di sconvolgimenti sentimentali e politici. Anche se i fatti storici non sono andati proprio come presenta il film, la vicenda è diretta magistralmente e le interpretazioni delle meravigliose Johansson e Portman impreziosiscono quest'opera cinematografica sottile, delicata, attraente e sconvolgente. Bravissimo anche Eric Bana, Enrico VIII nel film.
Spettacolare la qualità del video! non me l'aspettavo così ben definita e con colori così belli! Unica nota cattiva: totale assenza di contenuti extra e per un film così un pò me ne dispiace, perchè è uno dei miei preferiti.
Un ringraziamento al venditore che mi ha spedito il pacco con celerità da record! grazie mille davvero! consigliatissimo!
