Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Interminable plod through the story of Henry the Eighth and Anne Boleyn.
One of those almost unbearably classy movies, like A Man for All Seasons and Becket, that have a way of elevating the reputations of moviemakers without doing much for the art.
It's about what you'd expect -- slow, dry, fleetingly intelligent.
It is a story fit for the second Elizabeth, though it has perhaps one minor fault: the first two hours.
