As a period drama goes, it is pretty good, I must say. The Tudors is a period that is quite well known and there is so much to tell, it is no wonder this has been brought forth. Bear in mind though that throughout the 10 episodes of this first series, it is a dramatization. Do not go around thinking this is true to fact. If you want that, grab a good history book...more |

A great series and a thrilling watch. I was very entertained while watching this. I am not usualy a big fan of period dramas, but this was incredible. Synopsis: A compelling drama about the early years of King Henry VIII's infamous 40-year reign. With a lust for power and an appetite for love, this young Monarch (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers) rules his kingdom as he lives his life - with ruthless abandon. Review: First of all, one thing I love about this show - the music. The themes, the tunes, I love it all. And the music that plays in the opening credits hooks me every single time. When I started watching this show upon it airing, I immediately ...

If you're looking for historical accuracy, turn away now. Characters have been condensed, events rearranged, the course of history re-written to suit the narrative. But if what you're looking for is stunningly well-shot entertainment, then this is what you're after. The Tudors won best costume design, production design, and hair/make up at the IFTAs, along with picking up acting awards for a large part of the cast. The series follows the early years of Henry VIII as he meets and falls in love with Anne Boleyn, the girl some say changed the course of history. He rebels against the church, seeking a way to marry his new love, against a backdrop of ...

This four disc set offers up the tension, power, and lush sensuality of England's monarchy during the 1500's like pale flesh against dark and bejeweled velvet. Showtime's series, The Tudors, delivers a lavish feast for viewers. The settings, the complex and unique costuming, the stellar array of talent that moves each scene, like the next course in an impossibly well-choreographed fete, even the grace of dramatic lighting conjoins within this show to assemble a magical meal before our wondering eyes. However, this banquet... like cakes with Queen Mab, doesn't always satisfy and is often more dream than reality. Those looking for true and consistent historical ...
