Plot: Young lovers Hero and Claudio, soon to wed, conspire to get verbal sparring partners and confirmed singles Benedick and Beatrice to wed as well.
I guess I'll take away a full star for the forgiveness of Shakespeare's forgiveness of Claudio's violence. Can't get behind that, but a marvelous movie any which way.
Again...can't take Keanu Reeves seriously in this one. Just reminds me too much of his role as Ted. Micahel Keaton is awesome as a dumbass. And of course...Robert Sean Leonard proves that even good tv actors can't manage fake-crying on screen. Poor Denzel's the only one who ends up without a woman.
A great take on the Shakespeare play. Branagh does a great job with perserving the humor and fun from it.
O.K. to tell you the truth I didn't see all of this movie but that's just gotta be proof the this movie is LAME!!! I would say that it's for elders and young but not too young of an audience. But this movie didn't hold my attention at ALL! So I would definetly not recommend this for ANYONE!
I love Shakespeare and this is a great adaptation with Emma Thompson and Kenneth Branagh being incredibly fantastic
One of my favorite plays by Shakespeare I loved how it was brought to life on screen! Excellent timing, humor and villany! Reeves is an EXCELLENT Don Jon!
I only watched the first half an hour and I was completely lost. Too many characters to keep track of and unlike Romeo and Juliet it was hard to get used to the language.
Enjoyed the acting, and after having the play, enjoyed how the movie generally followed it...after recently attending more plays put on locally, I have begun to appreciate them more-and this is one of my favorite movies that got made from a Shakespeare play!
This was quite an enjoyable film despite the negative criticism about certain casting choices...notably Robert Sean Leonard as Claudio, Keanu Reeves as Don John, and Michael Keaton as Dogberry...
I think Robert was not really a bad fit, personnaly I can't really think of another actor that would have been more suited, Keanu however was a terrible choice for Don John, absolutely horrible...
And last but not least I think Michael was actualy a good fit for Dogberry, but there are other actors who could have pulled off the role...
One of my favorite movies of all time. This thing will make you laugh and smile. It'll impress you with it's cinematography and everything like that. Don't miss it.
Branagh's best Shakespere film. His direction varies from artsy and stylized to standard and straight-forward, depending on the needs of each scene. The comedy varies from heavy-handed to subtle depending on the scene and actor. The drama is pitch perfect and never heavier than is necessary. The diction is clear but retains the poetry of the text. All the actors are suited perfectly for their roles. I could recommend this to anyone who likes period drama or romantic comedy. Whether they like Shakespeare or not.
Here is Kenneth Branagh in yet another Shakespeare adaption. But seeing as Shakespeare is one of the greatest writers in history this had a great plot
love love love. charming, lovely colour, style, casting is great, lines delievered to perfection and the art direction, costume and directing is just on the ball.
oh i liked it . it was funny & cute . i give the actors props cuz wow they pulled of thoses complicated accents well .
Watched it in English good hard to understand with the old english words they said and the ending was a bit pointless
Shakespeare's best comedy, featuring an all-star cast (minus Keanu Reeves) and perhaps the best film adaptation of a Shakespeare play - ever!
One of my Fav Kenneth Branagh's films. Treachory, love, humor, scandle, fight scenes, it's got everything, including a very hilarious Michael Keaton!! If you love teh bard, this should be on your must see list!
it was nice, i could see that you can't hide love, but when something or someone try to stop it, you do everything...
I just love shakespeare. This movie is done wonderfully. Kenneth Branagh is in many movies and plays he is extremely talented.
Movies don't get much more feel-good than this. Very good adaptation of a Shakespeare comedy. Good cast, music and lovely italian settings.
Brilliant Shakespeare comedy, not got that edge which the other Branagh films such as Hamlet and Othello have but still a good film with Emma Thompson really doing well as Beatrice.
Wonderful movie. It's Shakespeare that I can bear to watch due to the overwhelming chemistry between all the players. I especially like Keaton who is an "ass."
I love Shakespere's plays. I think the man was a genius when it came to writing. However I can't stand his comedies. Lets face it, they aren't funny. The performances in this aren't too bad. Keanu Reeves was good. I like Emma Thompson, she's a very funny woman but she didn't make me laugh in this. I love Kenneth Branagh and he was really the true star of this film. The directing wasn't that great. I don't think there is much else to say about it that could be considered positive.

how come the legend that is denzel washington isnt in the actors list for this movie, he is the one that makes it good
How come Robert Sean Leonard and some of the other actors aren't credited for this movie???
the sheriff was so funny
"let it be recorded that 'i am an ass'"
i absolutely loved this film and the chemistry between the actors made it even more enjoyable.
