The movie was okay, but the ending was great. They did have some scenes where it draged on. So i would give the movie 3 stars

I saw this film with my friend Mitch, and we both agree that this film was an excellent follow-up to the first "Elizabeth". The acting was great, the characters were all well fleshed out and engaging, and I learned some stuff about history. I had no idea Sir Walter Raleigh and Elizabeth were hot for each other!

I am very puzzled by the mediocre movie reviews from the critics, saying that the movie was boring, slow moving and the movie jumped around to much in the different story lines. As a huge fan of historical fiction and having thoroughly enjoyed the first movie, this movie is an incredible follow-up to the first. What I so enjoyed about this movie were many things--the costumes were amazing, Cate

What a great movie. Cast was wonderful. And the costumes, I just can't say enough. Beautiful movie.

Gives new meaning to "costume drama" in that it is a drama primarily about costumes. But the drama is about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the temple. Full Review

Squanders the opportunity to give us a telling glimpse of the woman behind the ruff. Instead, the costume drama is all gilt and opulence. Full Review

If you go in fully prepared for the cinematic equivalent of a grocery-store novel, this unnecessary sequel to "Elizabeth" (1998) has its pleasures. Full Review

Overdresses and ultimately abandons what drew us to its 1998 predecessor in the first place: an intimate embrace with history. Full Review

Elizabeth: The Golden Age lacks the intricate plotting that characterized its predecessor. The screenplay is more action-oriented but not as smart, and some of the dialogue is downright cheesy. Full Review
