Has anyone seen 'The Other Boleyn Girl' film? I saw it on the plane home and it was AWFUL!! We know the book was not brilliant with a lot of inaccuracies, but the movie was worse! They had to skip a lot because of the time so if you had no idea about Anne and Henry, then you saw him as a monster and a rapist and Anne as not only a shrew, but at the beginning, as a subservient wimp, doing everything she is told by her Father and Norfolk and more than willing to bed the King.
As for Mary, oh my gosh, what a limp rag!! She was so submissive and woebegone!! Definitely not worth wasting an hour plus watching it!! Do you find this valuable?

There's a whole page of reviews & comparisons to The Tudors here : http://tudorswiki.sho.com/page/The+Tudors+vs.+The+Other+Boleyn+Girl
You should add yours to it.

I haven't seen it yet. I have it downloaded but I really have no desire to see it. Do you find this valuable?
