Nesta visceral e áspera adaptação da peça de Shakespeare sobre o rei implacável, Henrique V de Inglaterra está determinado a reclamar o reino de França. A insegurança de Henrique e a diminuição da moral do seu exército impedem uma vitória que uniria os dois países e daria a Henrique uma rainha. No entanto, a sua determinação e os seus discursos apaixonados preparam os seus homens para uma das mais sangrenta batalhas da Guerra dos Cem Anos, conflito que, entre 1337 e 1453, opôs Inglaterra e França.

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...
