Highly Overrated But Still Good
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
What is there to say about Justin Kurzel's MACBETH? I have adored this film for years ever since I first saw it in the cinema.The performances, the visual use of red throughout the story, the music. There isn't a film more beautiful than this one.Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard are true forces to be reckoned with. Easily the best performance I've seen from both actors.This film has inspired me to go and watch every single adaptation and incarnation of MACBETH I can get my hands on. As well as read the text, which makes you appreciate the films more. This film has inspired me to have a desire to make my own version of Macbeth. There are so many ways to tell this story, as evidence by all of the different artistic mediums that have been used over the years to do just that.This is a beautiful story, a beautiful film, and one I truly hope will go down with the classics.If anybody that ever worked on this film ever reads this. Please give yourself a pat on the back, well done.10/10 - Masterpiece
Period.Word for word accurate from the original text.This film and those portraying these famous figures of Shakespeare, the ambiance, atmosphere, all could not be better represented.Beautiful and magnificent.Such a shame rubbish like these comic book movies make such a fortune where this did not even break even..TRAGIC.
So disappointing. I loved it all the way to the end, until the filmmakers just had to go a completely different way with their ending. IT REALLY MAKES ME MAD WHEN THEY DO THAT! WHY? WHY DID THEY DO IT?! It's stupid! People are gonna go into this film, especially the ones that know the story of Macbeth are going to be disappointed at the end of the film! Stupid!
OKAY, WOW! Not to be super mean, but the first review of this movie really is deceptive! I loved this movie and am a huge fan of Macbeth so I would not say that lightly! Please take the time to watch and form your own opinions on the film!I loved the way the cast (Macbeth/ Lady MacBeth) spoke! Although it was in old Shakespearian it flowed beautifully! Lady Macbeth's (adapted) "monologue" chilled me to the bone, in the best way. I already knew what was going to happen and it still surprised me! Just watch and decide for yourself before you listen to puffed up movie critics!
