A terrible Shakespeare adaptation


http://www.cutprintfilm.com/reviews/cymbeline/

Shakespeare, huh? What an incredibly daunting undertaking this is. In many respects, when you come across an adaptation of a play written by the man they called ‘the bard’, you’re not just reviewing the production in question, you’re reviewing almost an entire body of work, and without the necessary research and preparation, you can very quickly come across like a bit of an *beep* Luckily, I’m a fan of Shakespeare so I don’t feel like so much of an *beep* going into this...

Been expecting that. Almereyda already ruined Hamlet years ago.

I was really looking forward to this, but was disappointed with it. I had read the play before and it's one of my favorites, but I wasn't impressed with the movie. It seems like they were just trying to capitalize on the whole Sons of Anarchy thing, but it was barely a thing.
