Shakespeare is a divisive individual, and he always has been. I assume that if one watched this movie, they are either fans of his history or of his work. With that in mind, it is fair to guess that the average viewer will either love or hate this story, without much space between. I for one would more or less fall under the "love" category. Sure, the screenplay tried to pack in a lot of The Bard's most interesting domestic experiences into a timeframe of only three years, and some of these details are overtly sappy, alleged, or even false. However, one cannot deny the excellent cast, dialogue, and cinematography that turned what could have been a dull biopic into equal parts artful and fascinating.
