Synopsis: Shakespeare’s beloved romantic romp has never been more fun than in Academy Award® Nominee Kenneth Branagh’s electrifying adaptation featuring an all-star cast!

Review: Kenneth Branagh's version of Much Ado About Nothing turned out to be a very accessible and enjoyable work!  He took Shakespeare, which is typically not for the masses, and brought out the nature of the elements that make the writing so great to begin with.  The chemistry between Branagh and Emma Thompson is fantastic, probably due to their marriage at the time of the filming back in the early 1990s.

The transfer into high-definition is a solid one, albeit not a huge difference from the DVD version.  The color pops a bit more and I certainly didn't experience much for grain or fleck.  The extras only have a short featurette about the making of the film and the original theatrical trailer.

Interest Range: Shakespeare, Comedy
