In many ways I can say "Elizabeth" is impressive and magnificent. Clearly a historical epic not to be missed. 'Cate Blanchett' is phenomenal in this picture, furthermore a celebrated masterpiece.... Full review

And Elizabeth did whisper Robert Dudley's name on her deathbed… The movie is an imaginative interpretation of the way that things could have been… Shekhar Kapur's film explores the instabilities of her reign, and the absolute horror and terror that surrounded... Full review

CATE BLANCHETT, MULTI-LAYERS OF ACTING ABILITY

What does it take to rule England, once the world's most powerful nation? At the expense of personal interests! The movie is symbolic. It symbolizes the dawn of women ruling over men (in general) and men. Elizabeth (played by Blanchett) was... Full review

This was one of the greatest portrayals ever. Cate does such a good job bringing out the mood, emotions, and just lighting up the screen as Elizabeth I. I love the story. And the visuals and acting were perfect!... Full review

The Academy Awards ceremony of 1999 angered many people: Shakespeare in Love, albeit a very smart and funny film, robbed the superior Saving Private Ryan of the Best Picture Oscar; Roberto Benigni beat Edward Norton in the Best Actor category (though... Full review

This movie is almost worthless as history, but it is so much fun I didn't care. Cate Blanchett plays the Virgin Queen with such aplomb it is easy to see why this role has garnered more acting awards than any other... Full review

A very original way to look at the "The Virgin Queen" instead of focusing on the end of her rein they focus on the start of her struggle to unite a divided country. I would highly recommend this movie to people... Full review

Louise Keller "Its a stunning, magnificently mounted film of sheer cinematic depth and character, with both a sense of finely drawn history, coupled with a contemporary edge. This is Blanchett at her best, responding to Kapurs lucid and firm direction, as he raises the film well above standard costumer levels to an intricate, intelligent human and historical drama. ...

Louise Keller "It's glorious, of course, on the faithful DVD format, and Elizabeth benefits from the intimacy that DVD offers the viewer in the home. The very first thing I noticed about Elizabeth on DVD is the excellent, quality packaging. ... Full Review

Boxoffice Magazine
Royal intrigue is inherently dramatic but "Elizabeth" is pretty sedate stuff, despite multiple murders and sexual shenanigans. Blanchett ("Oscar and Lucinda"), though, whose Elizabeth is the only fully-realized character in the film, is wonderful as a young woman who must shed her lover (Joseph Fiennes) and her naivete in a bid to hold on to her throne. ...

But it's the smartest and best suspense movie you're likely to see for a while. She's a wonderful counterpoint to Ardant, whose smile conceals as much as it reveals. ... Full Review

San Francisco Chronicle
But it's the smartest and best suspense movie you're likely to see for a while. The movie takes advantage of Ardant's strengths, her sense of fun, as well as her quality of cold observation - a quality that makes her friendliness just slightly less than reassuring. ... Full Review
