Guided to "Much Ado About Nothing" - Minute Review


Much Ado About Nothing – Minute Review
John Andrews

In this modern adaption of a Shakespeare play, director Joss Whedon uses a colorless palate of grey, whites, and blacks to make his point. The use of the old English script from the Renaissance adds an intriguing flare to the film. Though hard to understand at times, and a bit too complex for my simple mind, the old English contrasted with the modern clothes, locale, and time offers a great perspective on a classic story. The film is filled with comedy, great music, and excellent cinematography.
