William Shakespear's "Much Ado About Nothing". Critique of the 1993 film directed by Kenneth Branagh.

"Much Ado About Nothing" is your traditional romantic comedy. Written by William Shakespeare, it is a perfect example of a timeless love story, including the classic components: drama, humor, and unsubstantial love. This comedy will have you laughing even if you don't understand half of the Shakespearean dialogue; it is witty, and surely will keep you on the edge of your seat wandering how even more twisted the plot could possibly be. To give you …

…you wander why you aren't having such a perfect romance. Once again, Kenneth Barnagh has done another Shakespearean film as close as you can get to perfection. How he wrote the screen adaptation, directed, and acted is very impressive. After all, who else can pull off Shakespeare as well as him? (Also see Henry V) The film is rated PG-13 for some minor violence and brief shots of nudity in the opening scene, and runs 1:51.
