last week i watch a royal shakespeare company production of macbeth . it be 25 year old and filmed w or no props except sword and no furniture except chair . it be rivet . the acting be super all the actor train brit . contrast that performance to this . yawn yawn yawn . al pacino and a shylock and be tragic and heavy and and couldn not quite lose the new yorker accent and despite the long . pause . between . line . the whole thing be soporific and even the comic scene be barely even worth a smile and let a lone a belly laugh . this be suppose to be funny . they try to make it tragic . it be neither and just boring . i give it four point for costume and scenery and and jeremy iron and who be good at play a dull and depressed and deep voiced guy ( can he be anything else . ) .
