This is one of the best made biopics I have ever watched. The makers of this movie do a great job in depicting the life of great leader of her time.
It was a turbulent time that Elizabeth ascended the throne, and I have to admit that what Cate Blanchett did a superb job and showed her array of acting skills. In acting as Elizabeth she really brought the pictures in my head after reading the story to life. She is a real star.
Throughout this movie there is little time to relax, kudos to Shekhar Kapur who not only made an emotionally charged movie but also one that the tension never goes away for the entire duration.
The movie showed how trust was in limited supply early on when there were scenes of martyrs being burnt alive for their part in the war with the Scots. While there are some scenes of violence in it, this was a great biopic to watch.
