Hard time getting through it.


I bought a used copy some time ago, and I'm having a hard time getting through it. Has this happened to anyone else?

It's a well shot film, and the acting is good, but it's just not compelling to me for some reason.

Sorry to hear that, I think it's very visually appealing and has an ok pace. It depends on how many dialogue heavy films you like or how familiar with Shakespeare one is beforehand. The ending is cool.

Maybe I'll give it another shot.

I find sometimes I like some things better over time. Hope you like it more the next time!

Well, I finally got through it. It was interesting, and respectable in parts, but it's not a film I'm going to see again anytime soon.

And now she's doing a version of A Midsummer Night's Dream? Oh man.
