Trivia:

One line states that Coriolanus, played by Ralph Fiennes, "has grown from man to dragon." In the film Red Dragon (2002), Fiennes' character wished to become a dragon.

Goofs:

Errors in geography: In the Senate, while General Cominius praises Coriolanus, in a close-up of Menenius on his right hand side a coat-of-arms of Republic of Serbia (doubleheaded eagle with crown) can be seen. The Senate scenes were filmed in the Serbian parliament building.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Second Citizen:Before we proceed any further, hear me speak. You are all resolved rather to die than to famish?
Gathered Citizens:[in unison] Resolved.
Second Citizen:First, you know Caius Martius is chief enemy to the people.
Gathered Citizens:We know it.
First Citizen:Let us kill him. And we'll have corn at our own price.
Second Citizen:We are accounted poor citizens, the patricians of good. The leanness that afflicts us, the object of our misery, our suffering, is a gain to them.
Gathered Citizens:Aye.
Second Citizen:Let us revenge this with our sticks, ere we become rakes.
First Citizen:No more talking on it. Come!

Shakespeare's Ancient Tragedy Brilliantly Told

Shakespeare's most complicated tragedy set in the early days of the Rome Republic gets an updated setting in Fiennes' movie. Using story-telling techniques combining CNN, CSI, and YouTube along with images of street demonstrations, riots, and urban warfare, Fiennes gives us a Coriolanus befitting our times, clarifying how the titular hero can fall from national hero to banishment in a matter of minutes on the whims of a fickle populous easily swayed by political spin-masters. Still, the mamma's boy element of Coriolanus' tragedy remains intact.

Though significantly cut, the text is pure Shakespeare, even in the mouths of TV talking-head pundits. Spoken by the likes of Fiennes and Brian Cox, the verse lifts what could have been a gimmickry telling of Coriolanus into a five-star Shakespearean movie.
