Is it good?
shakespeare is for plebs
have you read it?
>>70846990
yes
it's macbeth. if you like the play you'll probably like it. the acting is kinda meh though, the costumes aren't historically-accurate, the slo-mo shit in combat was awful, and the pacing is kinda bad because there's no room for the natural pauses and set changes of a stage production.
it's kind of a grimdark braveheart with more elevated dialogue and less emotion
>>70846987
well how else was he supposed to make money?

If you understand what the characters are actually saying in the script you immediately realize that how the actors deliver the lines is completely emotionally inconsistent. I guess you could say it makes sense for Macbeth in the sense he has a form of PTSD, but literally everyone just says their lines as mutely and as emotionless as possible and it can be very irritating at times.
If you want to watch a stellar Macbeth adaptation, watch Roman Polanski's. It's incredible.
>>70847013
then yeah
>>70846953
it's macbeth, lad. You already know your opinion on it.
>>70849295
read macbeth several times, found this movie boring as hell.
only dinner scene and forest prophecy were handled well
>All those Shakespeare "experts" suddenly out of the /tv/ woodwork
Plebs obviously can't handle true cinema, no surprise here.
This was an amazing ethereal experience, everything from directing, music, cinematography, acting etc. was perfect and contributing to a real piece of art
It's also heavily influenced by Boorman's Excalibur in its editing and visual style, and I see no problem with that, if you're borrowing, borrow from the best.

The visuals were obnoxious at times desu
For real though, his delivery of "O full of scorpions is my mind" is my favorite take of the line I've ever heard
>>70846953
It's beautiful.

>>70846953
It's horrible it is pretentious. The set pieces are clichee as fuark...people battling in biker clothe with sticks and without helmets.
The actors don't know what the fuck the lines mean they are spilling, they are making a meaningful face while robotically reading them out loud. The whole thing is so over the head of these hollywood popstars, who want to prove that they are 'Real' actors and the director..urgh...
>>70846953
Shakespearean Cinematic Universe when???
It's definitely not bad. Some interesting liberties are taken with the material and both Fassbender and Cotillard are ridiculously good. The cinematography is way overblown though, and kind of shitty at times.
>>70846953
Watch Coriolanus.
>>70853406
That is the sense I got from the trailer.
10/10 not watching
>>70853483
It's called Hollow Crown.
No. watch superior adaptation instead.
>>70853406
Bought the film months ago but never got around to watching it because of this very feeling I got
>>70853836
The right choice, my ricenigga
Shakespeare is better on a stage

>>70846953
No, it'sgreat
>>70853406
You are so dense. They have experts on Shakespeare on set and go through evry fucking delivery.
The problem is, its not fucking theatre but a movie.

Throne of Blood, Japanese Macbeth

I agree with, I watched it and was thoroughly impressed with the execution. I just hated the fact it's macbeth again. I had to study it in school for a solid year. Why can't they make a movie like that with something original. It's not the 1600s anymore, we have lots of great writers and matierial out there. As good as the bard was he didn't have media on tap growing up.
