Much Ado About Nothing
Director Joss Whedon enlists the aid of some former acting associates (like Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, Nathan Fillion, & Clark Gregg) in a contemporary retelling of Shakespeare's classic comedic tale of romance. This creative piece is filmed in black & white on a 12day shooting schedule, while preserving the vernacular of the Bard. Alien did find this ambitious attempt admirable, but doesn't anticipate it to be very popular with the general public. It is more likely to become an English Literature example or a video Cliff Notes for students.
Alien gives it 2 "Old English" stars out of 4.
