Shawn's Other Boelyn Girl Review

2008 Movie #83 - The Other Boelyn Girl

This is it, this is the movie that caused me to fall completely behind on this whole movie quest thing. The movie that started the domino effect that caused me to be ridiculously behind until ...well still. Well this one and Definitely Maybe. It's because of this movie that I only got to do one month in review at the end of January. That feature would have been amazing but now we'll never know for sure.

I'm not really sure what caused me to not see this movie until now. I mean I watched a lot of shit in between then and now and just ignored this one. I wanted to see it, at least I think I did. Anyway I've seen it now and it makes it even more irritating that I didn't see it way back then because the movie was actually pretty damn good.

I'm not really that motivated to write a whole lot about the older movies because they're pretty off the radar by now and really, who cares. I mean this one isn't even new to DVD at this point so whatever. I will say that I'm not normally one for these types of historical dramas, but this one is pretty damn entertaining. It's certainly not a classic but it's good and well, it has Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johanssen in the same movie and there ain't nothing wrong with that.

You know what that's essentially all that I'm motivated to say here. Were this March 1st and Iw as talking about the movie then I'm sure I would go on longer and really detail things but by this point it doesn't really matter. If you haven't already, check this one out.

*** 1/2 / 5
