What I liked:

• Very well acted by Rhys Ifans and Vanessa Redgrave.  The supporting cast was also very good: Joely Richardson, Sebastian Armesto, Rafe Spall, David Thewlis, Edward Hogg, Sam Reid, Xavier Samuel and Jamie Campbell Bower.  And if you are wondering where you have seen the actress who played Anna De Vere, it is Helen Baxendale, aka Emily from Friends.
• The story was interesting.  What if Shakespeare didn't write what we know to be as Shakespeare?  There are many conspiracy theories out there.  This is just one of them.
• The costumes are exquisite.

What I didn't like:

• The story jumps around through time and it can be a bit confusing.
• It moves a little slow at times.
