I must say, I dislike the use of Shakespeare's English, though the film is great, it is ambitious, it has great moments, great acting by almost everyone (specially Hopkins), production design, costumes, editing and rest of it was great.
Maybe a bit too long, but, was never boring or unnecessary. Have never read the original story, but can probably say that what is there delivers a very compelling story
