Editorial Reviews

Kenneth Branagh makes his feature film directorial debut with this adaptation of William Shakespeare's Henry V. After the Chorus (Derek Jacobi) introduces the play, young king of England Henry V (Kenneth Branagh) begins an angry dialogue with King Charles of France (Paul Scofield). The king's son, Dauphin (Michael Maloney), insults Henry and the argument escalates into war. In flashback, Henry is seen as a young man drinking in a tavern with Falstaff (Robbie Coltrane), Bardolph (Richard Briers), Nym (Geoffery Hutchings), Pistol (Robert Stephens), and Mistress Quickly (Judi Dench). Meanwhile, Henry and his captain, Fluellen (Ian Holm), assemble an army and invade France. The French greatly outnumber the British troops, yet Henry leads them to victory in the Battle of Agincourt after delivering his famous St. Crispin's Day Speech. Throughout this struggle, Henry also courts Katherine (Emma Thompson) and eventually wins her over. Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide

January 17, 2010: The English know how to make a production well. And their actors can actually act. A great adaptation of this work. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

One of my all-time favorite moviesby Anonymous

December 26, 2004: I can watch this movie over and over. The St. Crispin's Day speech and Henry roaming the camp in disguise the night before the battle are both incredible scenes. The cast speaks Elizabethan English smoothly and naturally, making it easy to understand, unlike the forced recitations of other Shakespearean productions.
