COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Not recommended submitted by GJBarnett2 on August 31, 2012, 10:24am A very good cast bu curiously flat. For the curious Shakespeare-fan only.

Great Acting submitted by crazypockets on July 12, 2013, 4:39pm I really enjoyed this. I'd actually never heard of this play, so I didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised, and I really enjoyed the acting. It's kind of violent and a little hard to watch, but if you like Shakespeare, you'll probably like this.

Unless You Really Enjoy Shakespeare, Don't Rent This submitted by diana_kimball on August 21, 2019, 1:13pm I rented this because of the great cast of characters but it's too strange to hear the star of the movie "300" (i.e., Gerard Butler) speaking lines from Shakespeare.

Not my type of movie submitted by mandevil on March 31, 2021, 11:01pm Wanted to like it, but couldn’t follow the dialog or the action. Sort of like a sleeping pill, put me right to sleep
