      Some dull historical drama

      First of all, it must be said that the tones of this movie are handled well. Although it is a little dark but still more textured, it restores the coldness of the turbulent situation that year. In addition, the acting skills of the actors are also okay, except that the arrogant little Thomas is acting for the sake of acting.

      But it must be said that this drama is too dull. I have always had high expectations for British historical dramas. Before, there were a series of...

      A classic

      The father of the hero doesn't know whether he hates iron for not making steel or really hates the hero. In short, their contradiction is a bit close to being old and dead. The male mainstream fell on the streets, drunk and dreaming. But fortunately, there was a courtier with years of experience by his side.

      The male lead’s father’s messenger found the male lead and told him that your father is dying. Go and see him for the last time.

      The score is too low, I am fighting for this movie

      Wrote a film review for the first time, pure passerby, slight spoiler. This movie has been following for a long time, I heard about it before the official trailer came out, and I look forward to it very much. Recently, after Netflix went online, I found resources on the Internet to help me out. To be honest, I really can't figure out why the score is so low, only 6.2 points. After reading everyone’s comments, some people complained about the accents of the hero and Wufang, some complained...

      Serious feedback

      Watching this movie for tea? I feel that tea's acting skills are still online! ! I especially like his explosive force during the period that inspired the military

      And after his father passed away, he had tears in his eyes. I also like this paragraph (reminds me of CMBYNM)

      This rating is definitely not objective

      How can the gap be compared? The production itself is more than six-point grade. The story line is a bit old-fashioned. One film critic said that it is quite clear. It is a story of the loneliness of the king being framed by the nobles. The problem is that it did not choose the right king. It is not compatible with history and literature, leading many people to accept it.

      But what is the level of a film that should be scored with one's conscience alone? There can definitely be four...

      The biggest flaw is the protagonist. Tiancha can't support such a heavy theme and the focus of the whole story on him. The thin physique itself is very dramatic. When the protagonist collapses, the script is boring, and it depicts one historical process after another like a running...

      It's really drowsy, and the temperament of Sweet Tea is literary and melancholy, and it really doesn't match the cynical and heroic young king of Henry V (at least Shakespeare's). However, the temperament of sweet tea goes well with the depression and gloom of the whole...

      The temperament of sweet tea is not suitable for acting as king, but suitable for acting as...

      Was Henry V a villain who was good at making daggers?...

    Movie plot

    The sickly elderly Henry IV ( played by Ben Mendelsohn ) is a protagonist who is about to end his rule, but has always refused to make concessions in the conflict between Scotland and Wales, which also made his son Hal ( played by Timothée Chalamet ) Disgusted.
    Young Hal had nothing to do. He often went to the tavern to drink with Falstaff in the evening, and then brought a woman home with him every night. And Hal's father bluntly told...

    Evaluation action

    There is no doubt that the film is a contemplative upgrade and update of the writings of the troubadour Shakespeare. This is a powerful movie with outstanding performances. At the beginning, Chalamey's performance was a bit slow, he gradually adapted to the role, and when he began to adapt, the film gradually improved. But in this movie, at least at the beginning, he seemed to be a little outside of the story. His performance followed...

    Movie quotes

    • Sir John Falstaff: A king has no friends. Only followers and foe.

    • The Dauphin of France: [Hal enters the tent] Ahh!

      [drums impatiently with fingers]

      The Dauphin of France: Your majesty!

      [smiles and picks up his glass]

      The Dauphin of France: Ah. To your little... victory!

      [drinks]

      The Dauphin of France: Ah. You wonder why I have come? Hm? Do you wonder this? I have not come to offer you surrender, if that is what you're hoping. I have come to describe for you your end days. The screams of your men as they die. Slow. And so, King of, uh, England - you seem so intent on making France your new home. So let me help you. I will drain your body of its blood and bury it under a tree. A little French tree - very young, very small. Since perchance that is fitting of your mind for you to come here - small. And maybe your...

      [mimics a penis with his fingers]

      The Dauphin of France: I mean, your balls must be big, no? Giant balls.

      [laughs]

      The Dauphin of France: Giant balls with a tiny cock!

      [laughs heavily]

      The Dauphin of France: And the sound of your wives and children weeping shall lull me to sleep at night.

      [Falstaff yawns audibly]

      The Dauphin of France: Have you heard what I said?

    • The Dauphin of France: Please. Please, speak English. I enjoy to speak English. It is simple and ugly.
