It's a minor complaint, and it is a very relevant play. I would definitely recommend it for a Shakespeare fan, or a moderate Shakespeare interest. If you aren't fond of the language, it probably isn't a good choice.

Visually, it is fantastic, and production value is top notch. Hope you enjoy it if you choose to watch it!
I've been wanting to watch this as well. It received pretty good reviews that I read for, as EJ pointed out, being timely and relevant.
