Great adaptation

Rating: 10/10 (4 January 2016)

By my humble opinion this is the best Shakespearean movie adaptation so far. Beautifully directed and edited, with a stunning cinematography, really haunting score and two magnificent performances by Fassbender and Cotillard, this undeniably cinematic experience is a mesmerizing adaptation of Shakespeare's classic tale of ambition, fear, guilt and madness. Even the slight changes in the story (particularly part with the "moving" Birnam Wood)have no negative effect and outcome on the final product. It captures the true spirit and the poetic greatness with remarkable eloquence. This adaptation definitely takes the prize from the Orson Welles version from 1948., and even Roman Polanski's movie from 1971.
