Enrique V, el joven rey de Inglaterra, no es más que un muñeco entre las manos de la Iglesia: convencido por los clérigos de invadir Francia, se decide a entrar en guerra para reivindicar el trono del país vecino. La guerra culmina en la sangrienta batalla de Agincourt y, poco a poco, el rey debe luchar contra la moral cada vez más hundida de su tropas y contra sus propias dudas. (Filmax)

Branagh's best adaptation of Shakespeare, I'd almost bet my head on that! The story of Prince Henry, who became king and rejected the past in the name of England, is monumental, impressive, full of Shakespearean doubts about the royal destiny, full of sheer emotion. And, of course, precise and inventive direction, as well as Branagh's riveting portrayal of a young king who convinces Europe of his abilities. The scene of the King's speech before the seemingly lost battle with Dauphin is so unique that world cinema is hard pressed to surpass it – in its shadow, king Theoden and William Wallace are merely pathetic babblers. I don't think anyone's ever going to write it like this again... Branagh was born for Shakespeare, and Henry V just proves it...
