Enjoyable if you forget about history.

This and White Queen are wonderfully written and luckily acted by some superb and strong women actors. That being said they screwed with history (especially the White Queen) and it sells the women of history short. They do give you a pretty good picture of how Henry the VII and Elizabeth(Lizzie) of York felt about each other later in the show but during the first of the show is not anywhere near facts.

Both movies does a great disservice to Lady Margaret Beaufort and it is a shame. Besides showing how much she loved her son pretty much nothing else is factual.

But it is a movie and like 99% of historical movies/series you must suspend beliefs and you can throughly enjoy them.
