Jonathan English

The Profile

Jonathan English is a film director known for the 2011 medieval film Ironclad.

Directed Ironclad (2011), a British medieval siege film starring Paul Giamatti.

Jonathan English's Ironclad is presented as a niche, spartan medieval epic that favors relentless assaults and atmosphere over broad historical scope. The film is praised for landscapes, realism and Paul Giamatti's performance, but criticized for a weak screenplay and an out-of-place love story. Overall an interesting but limited work.
