Title: Shakespearean language NOT understandable
Review: Great actors, great camera work, but unless you are fluent in old English, you will find it tough to understand what is being said.I am a great Shakespeare fan. In school we studied the great plays, and with help from the teacher we laboriously translated the Shakespearean language into modern day. But as dialog in a fast moving movie, I just couldn't keep up.Why would anyone make a film with dialog like this? Why didn't the first words of the Amazon editorial review mention that the dialog was nearly unintelligible? After Amazon asked my opinion on this movie, I went back and scoured the reviews of people who scored it a "1". After reading a number of these, I saw that I could have understood the difficult dialog from reading these reviews. But I feel every review should start with mention of the dialog issue.I turned it off after 10 minutes. What a disappointment.
Is the review positive or negative?
