Quite simply, loved this!! Very theatrical without being too pompous, reminded me a lot of Titus (Very similar, original dialogue with sprinklings of contemporary dialogue, theatrical asides, and some brilliant anachronisms) All accomplished with great acting, the whole cast deserves equal credit.

Based on a very "meaty" story, They say that Revenge is a dish best served cold, but this is a film that'll warm the hearts of any film fan! Go see...
