Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Shakespeare done to perfection
This adaptation of the classic is perfectly understandable, humorous, beautiful and a joy to behold. Even those who are bored or daunted by Shakespeare's work will enjoy this bountiful, star studded film.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Love of Language
I think this adaptation of "Much Ado About Nothing," I think is one of Shakespeare's best comedies, is a great film. It can function as a sort of introductory bit of Shakespeare, because this play mostly consists of characters exchanging witty banter, and the actors (Keanu Reeves very much aside) brought such life to the already hilarious words.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - DVD Much Ado About Nothing
This is an excellent Hollywood presentation of Shakespeare's play Much Ado About Nothing. Emma Thompson is an excellent actress. I would definitely be careful not to show it to children or young teens as there is a fairly explicit sexual scene in it unless you totally fast forward that scene.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Movie
A great movie to watch. It's kind of shallow in the plot, but very witty and comical. The acting is excellent, and it's definitely worthy of imagination of Shakespeare himself... as if these people were watched while he penned this play.

For those worried about being able to follow the archaic language, don't worry. The movie has subtitle options and it's by far one of the easiest to grasp!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great!
Wonderful movie! Now to find the Flying Karamazov Brothers' rendition of the Merchant of Venice.
