Review of The Other Boleyn Girl (2008) by Jonathan H — 02 Jan 2010

Pretty good historical piece (making no comment on any known historical accuracy). Good though not earth-shaking cinematography. It is apparent that they are getting as quickly as possible through an awful lot of source material to jam it into under two hours.

It iincludes an annoying 'whatever happened to...' subtext at the end to really demonstrate the extreme desire to keep this movie short for some reason. Many scene transitions are nice with blurred fades across the set edges.

Things are kept moving through an otherwise not overly exciting story.
