Review of Shakespeare in Love (1998) by Jeremy B — 23 Oct 2017

Within the first half hour, I got bored. I watched this movie asking myself why this movie won Best Picture over Saving Private Ryan. Within the first half hour, the answer became clear. It shouldn't have won.

I tried getting into the characters, tried getting engaged, but found no good part. The writing does seem clever, but that's the only good part. Not only that, I tried getting interested with Gwyneth Paltrow's character, but she gives a really bland performance that makes me snore.

This is one of the most boring movies I've ever seen. I don't want to watch it again.
