Great stuff

Rating: Null/10 (8 August 2001)

For a Shakespeare fan like myself this was wonderful viewing. The language, look and feel of the whole movie was just as you would imagine London in Shakespeares times. Paltrow gave one of her strongest performances - hence the academy award! I also thought some of the supporting roles were well acted, Simon Callow and Martin Clunes in particular gave very funny performances.
If you are not a Shakespeare fan i wouldn't let the title scare you off as it has people i know! The film has comedy, drama, suspense - all the ingredients for a fine movie. Go see!!
