I cannot believe few have seen the doect

i cannot believe few have seen the doect inluence of shakespear, had it been acceptable she would have had a wet nurse to talk with. fant bloody tastic, had to stop 20 mins in to share my joy at finding another modernisation of his plays' usually when people know they critikebthe fuck out of them and destroy people having a go. i just have not listened well enough, or read too few of shakespears to know...or perhaps i insult and the style has been too long lost.

Potter shows herself to be a very limited

Potter shows herself to be a very limited visual stylist. She pulls out every trick from the hack director handbook, from canted angles to Peter Jackson-esque motion blur to overly intrusive foreground texture (get that fucking glass out of the way!) and it is endlessly irritating. I could probably forgive all this (and I do to an extent) if the writing was amazing, but the gender dynamic of the central love triangle is pretty clichéd, and some of the rhymes clang horribly. It does work at times in spite of itself, but not brilliantly.

Such a pretentious attempt at poetic cinema. For

Such a pretentious attempt at poetic cinema. For some reason the dialogues come in pathetic, childish rhymes. The script is a feeble collection of generic characters and themes and doesn't really focus on anything worthy. The cinematography leaves a lot to be desired, the dialogues are stilted and the love story has zero impact. Despite that, Sam Neill is pretty good and the few scenes he has are the only fine moments of the film, especially his monologue and impromptu dancing to the blues.
