HENRY V (Released to Theaters USA 1989)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.7|5.0 Starsììì 

Henry Vhistorical movieattempts to use the small screen as a theatre stage. The movie requires a stage to cover the theatrics and long dialogue rants. The movie could be watched as an academic work of what not to do. The sets are probably the best part of the film.

? Yes? No? Maybe? 

Maybe.  If the audience absolutely loves Shakespeare-theater-style entertainment, then this is the film for them. This movie absolutely needs a plotline read to place events and the reason for those events. Otherwise this movie can be an exceptionally long and drawn out film.
