As a long time lover of all things Bard, and a pretty consistent admirer of most things Whedonesque, I went into this film predisposed to enjoy it. Still, my familiarity with the play could have made it painful had the effort lacked imagination and execution. As my review suggests, it didn’t, though, and its version of “Sigh No More” enthralled me. Thank you, Mr. Whedon.
