Why?
Infuriating romantic comedy in which every moment is drowned in a sea of schmaltz, particularly those between the lovers; the script is fairly good, witty even, but is ruined by honey-coated direction and poor performances.
Why this arrogant, soppy sludge won so many Oscars remains beyond comprehension; its just a run-of-the-mill, saccharine rom-com. Dont be drawn in by the word Shakespeare in its title; it doesnt make it any cleverer. |
