An incredibly rich and accurate feeling Shakespearean adaptation from Justin Kurzel that's brimming with passion and love for the original work. The cinematography is outstanding, Kurzels direction is really impressive and the acting from the whole cast is stellar. Fassbender especially. I'll admit I would have enjoyed this even more if I understood the dialogue better, but it's not the films fault that I'm an uneducated plebeian, so I won't hold it against it.

Damn good film, damn good adaptation and I think this is a good starting point for accurate Shakespeare adaptations for anyone interested. Just be prepared for the dialogue.
