This movie is, perhaps, the second worst that I have ever seen in my lifetime of watching movies. The director is entirely unskilled at making movies, and furthermore seems to have an enormous amount of personal vanity, this based on the interview segments of the DVD. The main problem with the story, however, is the setting. It is set in the modern age, with guns, cars, and bombs, in the country of Rome. Apparently the screenwriter was too stupid to notice that Rome is no longer a nation. The film tries very hard to be entertaining, to tell a coherent story, and fails. If it failed in a spectacular way it would at least be funny, something to laugh at, but it does not do this. This is easily the worst adaptation of Shakespeare that i have ever seen, worse even than all of Branaugh's attempts to ruin the works. Not worth the almost three hours it takes to watch. I hate this movie.
