The Other Boleyn Girl

I wasn't sure what to make of this historical drama movie. I heard rumors that it was a chick flick, but honestly it wasn't. Def. a lot of soap opera type drama on a historical backdrop but I say guys can enjoy this too. It takes place in England in the 16th century. The story focuses mostly on the Boleyn sisters and how their lives mix with the King and Queen of England. Both these Boleyn girls "hook up" with the King but with different motives and manners entirely. This movie goes thru a lot of emotions and shocked me a few times too. Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson looked great. I'm not a history buff, but I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.
