The Merchant of Venice Audience Reviews

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
