Film ruined by the present-day context
Why bother having a present-day aspect to the stort? Spain in 1492 is a far more rich and colourful period than 2016 in the UK/US. This hardly needs time travel/sci-fi on top of the detailed historical context already provided. Every time they switched to the modern day (which must be 75% of the time) my hopes of watchinng a decent movie were blunted and then finally extinguished altogether.
