Anonymous



Did Shakespeare write his own plays, or was there a complicated 130-minute long conspiracy? Anonymous attempts to solve the mystery. However, everything is so dim and torchlit if there were clues lying around everyone would probably stumble over them. Art directed and CGI'd within an inch of its life, Anonymous also features that style of ACTING! that requires all caps and an exclamation point. Not that I didn't enjoy it, but the whole thing may be a little too complicated for those that are unfamiliar with Shakespeare's plays, the large cast of characters with royal titles, and the intricate machinations of Elizabethan England. The plot is convoluted, there are way too many ruffled collars, and the film jumps around in time; so somepeople may find themselves checking Wikipedia. I did. tl;dr.

I pay-per-viewed it. Here's a trailer featuring Radiohead for some reason:
