  1. poor sequel

    Posted: 06 December 2008
    The Indian Hollywood export (Shekhar Kapoor) returns with his second Hollywood venture, Elizabeth : The Golden Age.This time, it picks up the strings of history, thirty years after where it left off in Elizabeth l. It’s the sixteenth century again, ornate and full of intrigue. But unlike the first film, this one is laboured and has nothing new to offer, other than a power-packed performance by Cate Blanchett who plays the eponymous role with gusto and verve. She is both vulnerable and invincible, powerful and pitiable, alpha-woman and child-woman...all at the same time. And it is her fiery rendition of the troubled monarch that makes this tryst with history watchable, even though it does seem remote when the tempestuous present has so many stories to tell and retell. And Shekhar threatens to never say never. He threatens to come up with a third sequel to the Eliz-Ah-beth saga!
