Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The costumes designed by Sandy Powell - leather gowns and military uniforms, Renaissance in silhouette and detailed with zippers - are the film's most arresting element.

rotten:
Normally I'd watch Helen Mirren in anything, even if she was just putting out the laundry or reading the phone book. But, given the roteness of her line readings here, it might have been better if the phone book rather than Shakespeare was her text.
– Peter Rainer,

rotten:
Primarily an exercise in eccentric (and, I would argue, empty) spectacle.
– J. R. Jones,

fresh:
Taymor, by turning Prospero into a woman while retaining an "imperialist" view of Caliban, will no doubt simultaneously please and enrage left-wing critics. The rest of us can enjoy the movie's strengths...

You expect Nicolas Cage to pop up from behind a sand dune on a Harley brandishing a rocket launcher.
