MCT:October 17, 2008Many people will go to watch this movie knowing the whole plot. It is Shakespeare of course. But fear not people that think Shakespeare is just some dead guy, this is a really good take on the his classic tragedy "Othello"
I am a keen fan on Shakespeare, and having seen Julia Styles make an outstanding preformance in 10 things I hate about you (Based on Shakespeares comedy "Taming of the Shrew") I knew we had actors with their whole hearts in the performanc.
It was acted beautifully, the characters are likeable and hateable and the story flows with prestine precision. Good film to ease yourself into Shakespeare, or wanting a good story performed by a good, young cast. -

Basketball isn't fun to watch, so the basketball element of this movie shits me. So do the characters (other than Josh Hartnett's character). However the plot was pretty cool I guess and the ending was really good and probably made me rate the movie higher than I should. Julia Stiles is ugly.

MCT:April 13, 2008I was shocked at how this movie turned out I had never heard of the story before...and just think it is great didn't see how Mekhi Phifer was so easily influenced, by the otherers he should have trusted his relationship more or just asked his girlfriend for the truth. This one ended tragically.

MCT:April 7, 2008Pretty risible really - a modern day updating of Shakespeare's Othello that fails to make any kind of impact, O features drippy, unlikeable performances (Mekhi Phifer aside, who is excellent), terrible dialogue, increasingly hard to swallow coincidences and scenes that go on far too long. There's no tragedy here, just unintentional comedy. And the classroom 'Shakespeare' scene is utter wank; psuedo-irony towelled on without any skill. Terrible.
