    I think people liked it because it explains perfectly how where theaters and plays in Sheaksperean times. I personally love it there a lot of excellent actors in it, the story is very cute and come on it is telling us how the master Shakespeare wrote the most acclaimed and famous play of all times, I really like it, I don't if it deserved the oscar it won but i't a very very good movie.

    overrated romantic-comedy film and lead actress...

    i dont understand why the academy gave her the best actress trophy over cate blanchett, a paltry choice indeed!

    A good film, fun to watch, just maybe a bit predictable. I only gave it 3.5 stars because, although it was entertaining, there was nothing about it that was so good that it deserved any more, I don't think.

    But I agree with TheDeathlyHallows - Shakespeare *WAS* gorgeous. <3
