Editorial Reviews

Product Description

England has never seen a more colorful monarch than King Henry VIII.

His unyielding power over the thrown was constantly overshadowed by his infamous matrimonial problems, which had such a profound effect on a deeply religious country. A man of passionate nature, he also possessed a cruel streak, the King’s six wives will forever adorn the pages of history.

From dashing youth to gout-ridden old age, this is the story of ‘Good King Hal.’ Featuring accurately dramatized reconstructions, superb period imagery plus commentary and analyses by a team of leading authorities, this film is your ticket for a voyage through the pages of English history...

2.0 out of 5 stars Done much better by others., January 26, 2007
By Heather Puhl (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you are looking for a very simple overview of Henry VIII's reign and do not care at all about the visuals, this will do. The costuming is so poor that it is humorous, with a huge replica of the gable headdress on Kathrine, Elizabethan styles on Elizabeth I's mother, and other glaring errors and low-budget compromises. The background music gets irritating, and the dramatic facts of Henry's life are narrated in a uniform, almost upbeat manner which is a little disconcerting when the narrator is describing a death by beheading. The story is factual, but skips and leaves out lots of interesting information and important details. A sarcastic quote from Henry about being "taught" by his wife is misconstrued as an endorsement of his happiness with Kathrine Parr, rather than in it's context referring to the argument that almost got her beheaded too. The way that narration lines up with pictures is confusing and could mislead viewers who are not familiar with the standard Tudor portraits to think that they are of the wrong people. Overall, it would work fine as a reference material for an eighth-grade report, but anyone who wants something interesting, enlightening and dramatic to watch should skip this.
