Good movie that you will forget.

Rating: 7/10 (26 February 2013)

Shakespeare in Love has all the ingredients for a Best Picture winner: Good actors, beautiful costumes, nice sets, some romance and some funny jokes... Was that enough to make you fall asleep? It's everything you'd expect by looking at the cover, and that's fine, but it's simply not enough for a truly amazing movie. Shakespeare in Love is an entertaining, well written film and at the same time never surpasses the realm of mediocrity.
Judi Dench stands out as a hilarious Queen Elizabeth who can act like a goddess without even moving her face and Ben Affleck stands out for being Ben Affleck in the 1500's and thus taking you out of the movie.
