Shakespeare was one hell of a dirty minded brit. If he were alive today people would be amazed at his humor and how it translates to modern English. His works don't particularly get me excited, but when I learned that this film was based on his "Taming of the shrew", I was curious enough to give it a chance.
I never knew that a movie of this kind of background could be so amusing. Particularly, Heath Ledger. He made this film so enjoyable and entertaining, that even the Shakespeare haters will like too.
If you haven't seen the Baz Luhrmann adaptation of Romeo and Juliet this is film is more enjoyable then that sorry excuse for a rom-com.
Also starring in the film, Julia Stiles. She is quite the character, just saying. She is just as enjoyable as her on screen love interest played by Heath Ledger. The two share an amusing connection on screen, viewers will find to their liking.
One of the most prolific literary figures, who I am dubbing the English Literature's version of movie whiz Steven Speilberg. Shakespeare has it all with this story: Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll and innuendos that are brilliant. What more could you want?
