Task 8 Movie Review

After watching the movie Much Ado About Nothing it gave us a different perspective on the book. After watching the movie, we got a better understanding of scenes we didnt get when reading the play. I didnt like the movie because I thought that there was no point to it. Matt agrees.

Acting 
We both liked the actors, we thought that they met the expectations of our imaginations while we were reading the play. Hero seemed sweet and innocent and Don John seemed intense and he fit the role well. The only thing that we werent expecting was that Beatrice and Bennedick and Ursula were a lot older than what we would have thought.

Pace
Matt and I both agreed that the pace could not have been slower. We got bored during the movie because nothing was really happening the entire time and it didnt help that they were talking in Shakespeare. There were many parts where we could have been more engaged in the movie, but for the most part it was too slow.

Was it worth it?
We both dont think it was worth watching it. It was too slow and didnt capture our interests. The reason being is because shakespeare language is too hard to follow and understand. And we didnt think that there was a point to the movie. We would definitely recommend it to shakespeare addicts because they would understand it and enjoy it because they like shakespeare. Overall the rating we would give this movie would be a 1.5/5.

Overall we think that this movie was done well but it wasnt for our age. We think that if they modernized it the movie would be a lot better and capture both our interests.

Yours always

Hero and Leonato
