Movie Reviews of Henry V (Cliffs Notes Edition)
Movie Review: If you don't get Shakespeare, get this.
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this in its original, full-screen glory in theatrical release. Before I did, the distance of Shakespeare's language made his work strange to me at best. And I was a theatre major in college!
Branagh's direction and a simply amazing cast opened my eyes. I never looked at the Bard the same way again, and even went back to reread the plays I had studied in high school.
For everyone that doesn't "get" Shakespeare, get this.
Summary of Henry V (Cliffs Notes Edition)
He ruled a massive empire...and fought a mighty war! Kenneth Branagh, Paul Scofield, Derek Jacobi, Ian Holm, Emma Thompson and Judi Dench star in this heroic, action-packed epic based on the timeless play by William Shakespeare. "Magnificent, passionate and steeped in powerful emotion" (The Washington Post), Henry V is a "stunning," (Leonard Maltin) OscarÂ(r)-nominated* adventure that takes its place amongst the greatest war films of all time. Having recently been crowned King of England, Henry (Branagh) commands a massive invasion to assert what he believes is his legal right to the throne of France. But a mighty army stands in his wayâ?¦and the young monarch must rely on untested reserves of courage and cunning as he personally leads his outnumbered forces into a desperate battle for the honor and glory of the British Empire.Similar DVD Movies
