The Other Boleyn Girl Reviews

Movie Reviews

• unsexy and not particularly good-looking adaptation of a historical potboiler

  by Lou Lumenick [New York Post ]

• undermined by a lack of heart, and an abundance of seemingly petty squabbling

  by David Mercier [FilmJudge ]

• oversimplified, overheated mediocre melodrama

  by Claudia Puig [USA Today ]

• one of the most authentic-looking period films in recent years

  by Mary-Liz Shaw [Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ]

• "The Other Boleyn Girl" is the kind of potted historical drama that's not good enough to take seriously and, sadly, not bad enough to be any fun

  by Ty Burr [Boston Globe ]

• "The Other Boleyn Girl" digs up the dirt, buries the truth, and cheerfully watches the queen's head roll once more
