I have seen The Tudors and i liked it but it is too glamour in my opinion especially Jonathan Rhys Meyers looks like a rockstar not a king as Henry VIII! Is Wolf Hall more realistic?

Yes,
Wolf Hall
is more realistic. The events, the dialogue, the characters, the costumes, etc. are more historically accurate. Not perfect but much better in my opinion than
The Tudors
.
Wolf
is slower paced, there is more dialogue, and no one looks like a rock star. -

Yes, I think you would like Wolf Hall. Although it is exquisitely filmed, there is no "glamour" or attempt to appeal to youthful sexuality or stuff like that. The filmmakers took the story and period very seriously. That said, it is quite enjoyable (especially once you get past episode 1, which sets the story up and is a bit slow).

Wolf Hall. By a mile.
ps - This guide helped get me through the first episode. They jump back and forth in time and it can be easy to get lost.
