| Users review: Ill start by saying Im Scottish with a reasonable knowledge of the times in the drama and this is bunkum BUT it is enjoyable bunkum with a very beautiful Mary and some of the best music Ive heard on a TV show since the new Battlestar Galactica. Think The Borgias without Jeremy Irons pope and you will be on the right lines when you imagine what Reign is like. Its actually so pretty, and the music is so great, that I really want them to dump the historical narrative altogether and disappear off into a fantasy world where they can make up their own ending and create their own marriages and alliances as they go along. Adelaide Kane is a gorgeous Mary – in fact I keep forgetting its supposed to be Mary Queen of Scots and getting confused with Snow White. That girl was just born to wear red roses in her hair. Her young French prince is the ringer for the younger of the Borgia sons and is very easy on the eye – and talking about eyes, the bastard brother to the French prince is another honey. And then we get on to the pagans in the woods, the conspiring Queen and the enemies all around. Its quite sumptuous. As I say, its nonsense; its absolutely not to be taken seriously, but I will carry on watching it because it is all just so darned enjoyable and glorious in its wrongness. And the soundtrack is just breathtaking. |
