A solid costume drama. Nothing really stood out but it is well made. Paul Scofield is great. Robert Shaw was a little over the top.

A pro- Thomas More telling of history. The movie depicts More as a righteous martyr. But glosses over his use of torture and capital punishment against so called heretics. By capital punishment I mean burning people at the stake. It's a great costume drama. Well acted. Great script. I don't know who is more kingly Robert Shaw or Damian Lewis.
