I actually felt like standing up and booing at the end of this movie. It made NO sense at all and the ending was absolutely A-W-F-U-L!! Light and delightful in parts, but obviously the work of someone who ran through Dallas with some scouts and got a LOT of details wrong. And the interaction of the characters throughout made no sense at all. Definitely one of the worst movies ever made. It's like they ran out of time and ideas at the end and slapped something together. Magical realism, my foot! Sloppy filmmaking at its worst. Don't bother!

Beautiful and moving - a tribute to Gielgud's talent. I'm so glad Branagh had the foresite to capture the magic on film, especially in light of Gielgud's recent death. This film brought tears to my eyes and reignited my love of Shakespeare. Gielgud truly brought Shakespeare to life like noone else.
