imgres.jpgQueen Elizabeth (Blanchett) has survived assassination plots and battles so far with the help of the assassin Walsingham (Rush), but now King Phillip (Molla) of Spain is set on having a catholic queen of England and will stop at nothing to have it so. The Queen is distracted from this by the Knight, Sir Walter Raleigh (Owen) as he becomes her new love interest.

E:TGA does not hold up to it's predecessor, as a lot of the film will bore you to death. Geoffrey Rush has nothing to do, and he's the best character. It has a different feel to the first film (Probably because most of the original cast were killed off in the first one).

***Okay
