I really don't want to give this review, but unfortunately this film is really bad, no matter how much I like Cate Blanchett, no matter how much I admire the first episode. The first half of this movie, one hour and fifteen minutes, is all pieced together from bits and pieces. It is better to make it into a TV series than to make it into a movie. Cate Blanchett's queen role seems to have a fixed pattern in acting, which is very rigid, but in this film it is a bit more warm and human than the first episode. I don't know who is closer to the historical Elizabeth I than Helen Mirren's outreach. Regarding the sea battle scene, this is the most anticipated part of the last half hour of the film, but it is just a few scribbles, just giving the audience some visual stimulation, hanging people in the air, not going up and down, really annoying. (I don’t know what the old white horse is doing.) In addition, the demise of the Armada is an important key to England’s transformation from decline to victory in history. There is not much to add ink to such a dramatic history, but to add jealousy to the affairs of men and women, screenwriter Silly. Such an orthodox and temperamental actress plays the queen, who wants to see the queen fall in love? What does it mean when the queen takes off her clothes and shows the light behind them when the two go to bed? Please, is this a serious drama? Is there something wrong with the dignified queen who has to show the screenwriter's brain in the movie? The sentence before the queen kissed the pirate seems to be really pure and has not touched a man for a long time. Does the screenwriter treat the audience as an idiot? Also, this film is too concerned with visually deifying Elizabeth, especially after Spain's defeat: the queen stands on the cliff, the queen stretches her arms like a model, and the queen holds a child, which is really contrived. Cate is estimated to have missed the Oscar for best actress, but this play is very interesting to win the best costume award.

    A film that is completely supported by actors, Cate and GR are both great! ! The plot is all kinds of wanting to complain... Besides, why do I always think that the Queen and Beth are true love (﹁"﹁)
