  • July 26, 2008
    Bright, colorful, lively Cole Porter musical inspired by Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. Originally filmed in 3D
  • April 3, 2009
    A sweet movie musical about a couple putting on a musical despite their romantic drama offstage.
  • September 18, 2009
    Not a bad film but not great.
  • August 18, 2009
    Based on 'Taming of the Shrew' by Shakespeare.

    If I didn't love The Taming of the Shrew or didn't know one thing about the theatre and Shakespeare then I don't think I would've like it as much. So before you see this film, brush up your Shakespeare!
