Email this page to a friend   Critics Reviews Average Grade:   N/A Source Brief Review NZone (5 out of 5 stars) "This version of 'Love’s Labour’s Lost' is sure to raise a few eyebrows among purists, but Branagh’s bold cinematic adaptation is stunningly imaginative and ultimately, highly successful." more... BBC "...says much for Branagh's tenacity, talent and imagination." more... culturevulture.net "Shakespeare has been cut to the bone. Branagh sets a rapid-fire pace to the lines, making them often hard to follow... " more... E! Online (grade: B) "With so many players in the mix...the casting becomes uneven." more... Empire (4 out of 5 stars) "...this potentially risky venture is the kind of success that could signal a major revival for the musical genre." more... Evening Standard (0 stars) "Most of the way it is high camp: often inventive in concept and setting, but performed in front of a merciless camera, rather than a forgiving audience of undergraduates." more... Film Threat (.5 stars) "...yet another experimental film attempting to reinterpret Shakespeare and failing miserably." more... Flick Filosopher "This is a wonderful film, an absolute delight." more... indside out film (2.5 out of 5 stars) "Branagh has cut the play so drastically, only its shadow remains." more... Irish Times "...[a] slight but entertaining soufflé of a movie." more... James Berardinelli (3 out of 4 stars) "...an enjoyable trifle, especially for those who don't take their Shakespeare too seriously and those who love the old Hollywood musicals as much as Branagh obviously does." more... JoBlo's Movie Emporium (7.5 out of 10) "Wow. A magical recreation of the classic 1930s style musicals, filled with infectious dances, delightful songs and an overall sense of joy and merriment all around." more... PopMatters "I. There are people who don't like musicals..." more... Spliced Online: Shakespeare Song-and-Dance Delight "Brilliant Branagh does it again, turning 'Love's Labour's Lost' into a spirited '30s-style musical." more...
