The sequel to 1998's Elizabeth. This film follows the monarch's middle years on the throne, highlighting the conflict between her personal and public life, and the continuing threats to her reign at home and abroad.
Elizabeth: The Golden Age squanders the opportunity to give us a telling glimpse of the woman behind the ruff. Instead, the costume drama is all gilt and opulence.
Though steeped in period haute couture, this sequel to the 1998 biopic Elizabeth fails to engage us with its wan historical fiction. Cate Blanchett reprises her role as Queen Elizabeth, and other characters return, notably Geoffrey Rush as her adviser, Sir Francis Walsingham. While there is intrigue and familial treachery, it doesn't involve us as much as it should. The drawn-out defeat of the Spanish Armada, intended as a climactic sequence, turns out to be a bombastic bore.

Painfully long & slow
What can I say, the 1st Elizabeth was simply great, the kind of movie leaving you riveted to the edge of your seat!
Unfortunately this one is very much the complete opposite. So yes the costumes are great and the few CGI special effects (basically the couple of minutes of action featuring the ships of the spanish Great Armada) are well made.
But apart from that it's a 2 hours torture that could have easily been reduced to a half-hour. There's no rhythm, it's very very slow, with many supposedly 'key' scenes just dragging on & on & on (e.g. the execution, the baby, the kiss, etc etc...). The trailer pretty much shows what's worth watching out of ...
Elizabeth: The Golden Age is a follow-up less golden than its 1998 predecessor. Without the pleasure of watching Cate Blanchett continue the role that launched her to stardom, there would be little to recommend this latest of many cinematic and television accounts of the celebrated monarch's life, which is melodramatic, narrowly concerned with portraying her human vulnerabilities, and, thanks to a constantly pounding musical score, bombastic. Commercial prospects look OK but less promising than what a first-rate film of this nature would command.
Shekhar Kapur's look at the regent's earlier years enjoyed the considerable benefit of the discovery of a ...

Very powerful movie, Kate Blanchett does an excellent job in the first one and in this one. Brilliant film, i strongly advise anyone to watch it. I gave it 5/5, and I must say i was quite eager to become part of the audience to this film.
