It’s an odd mixture from the start. It grafts one of Shakespeare’s lesser known (and, in general, lesser) works to a movie that’s trying to recapture some of the artistry and brains of The Hurt Locker. That is never quite succeeds is obvious, that it even dared is admirable, that it is Ralph Fiennes first directorial effort is remarkable.

“To be honest, I had no idea what to expect from this flick but since I always had a weak spot for Ralph Fiennes, I was quite eager to check his directorial debut. Well, eventually, it turned out to be one of these modern adaptations of a Shakespeare play. However, even though it was taking place more or less nowadays, they still kept the original vintage dialogues, a gimmick which might have some merit but, to be honest, I never really cared for it. On top of that, even though the timeline was definitely contemporary, they kept all the Roman names for the characters and the cities involved, which made the whole thing even more confused and confusing. So, as you have probably guessed by now, I had a hard time to get into this flick. And, yet, I have to credit Ralph Fiennes as I was actually” read more
