  • "A new spin on the old song and dance."
  • "SUMMARY: "Kenneth Branagh's musical adaptation of Shakespeare's comedy sets the action in the last few days before the start of World War II. In the fictional kingdom of Navarre, King Ferdinand (Alessandro Nivola) and three chums take vow to study rigorously and avoid women for three years. Their vow is immediately tested with the surprise visit of the Princess of France (Alicia Silverstone) with three ladies-in-waiting. Romantic merriment ensues as each of the men fall in love and attempt to woo the ladies without being caught. Branagh's film features musical numbers by Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and others performed in the classic style of 1930s MGM musicals." (http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo)"

  • "The handsome young King of Navarre and his three friends--Berowne, Longaville, and Dumaine--make a pledge to retreat for three years to study literature and art, depriving themselves of all comforts, including the company of women, for the duration. The pledge survives intact for exactly as long as it takes the beautiful Princess of France and her three friends--Rosaline, Maria, and Katherine--to travel to Navarre on a diplomatic mission from her father. Shakespeare purists will probably be horrified that Branagh has juxtaposed the Bard with classics by Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, and George and Ira Gershwin, in a loving homage to the great musicals of the '30s. He has also thrown in every cliché of said musicals, reviving the abandoned genre with 90 minutes of elaborately staged flossy, frothy, campy, cotton-candy fun."@en

  • "Verfilmung des gleichnamigen Theaterstücks von William Shakespeare, die auf die zeitgenössischen Anspielungen verzichtet und die Handlung um die Errichtung eines wissenschaftlichen Utopias in die erste Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts verlegt. Zugleich wird das Stück durch die Verwendung vieler Gesangs- und Tanznummern in den Rang eines eleganten Musicals erhoben, was die Zeitlosigkeit der Liebesgeschichte noch unterstreicht. (www.zweitausendeins.de, 15.9.10)."

  • "Adaptation of William Shakespeare's play as a musical in the style of the Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers films of the 1930s."
  • "Il Re di Navarra invita i suoi tre amici più cari a sostenere un giuramento molto duro: per tre anni non dovranno pensare ad altro che allo studio, senza frequentare donne, con un solo giorno libero a settimana e non più di tre ore di sonno a notte ..."
