Viel Lärm um nichts: Directed by Joss Whedon. With Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, Nathan Fillion, Clark Gregg. A modern retelling of Shakespeare’s classic comedy about two pairs of lovers with different takes on romance and a way with words.

“Much Ado About Nothing by Joss Whedon is the latest adaptation of the Shakespeareu0026#39;s comedy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe good. Excellent ideas. Very funny settings and actions. Nice choice of actors. With visual, itu0026#39;s always possible to add non spoken actions to original dialogs and Whedon made some clever extensions. Great photography.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe actors. My favorite performance were by Nathan Fillion, Sean Maher, and Tom Lenk, although I came to appreciate those of Amy Acker and Alexis Denisof a lot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe bad. The concept of war as spoken in the piece doesnu0026#39;t translate well in modern time.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe ugly. Nothing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe result. Solid entertainment for those who like modern transposition of Shakespeareu0026#39;s work, A must for any Whedon fan.”
