Light-hearted Shakespeare just as it should be. Pretty much perfectly cast with each actor hitting all the right notes. Still like with most Shakespeare it will never match up to its source material but at least it goes for a fair balance between the theatrical and the cinematic.
Imaginative but overdramatic at times. I say they should have had a different person in charge of music - that would have given it a 4.
At first, it was a little confusing because the film assumes you know the story already. But after a while, you catch on and it becomes quite humorous.
Wonderful Shakespeare production. Love Imogen Stubbs and Helena Bonham Carter. Wonder if she's still smoking the fags?
