O is the story of Shakespeare's Othello. I think this film is a good adaption on to the play of Othello. And is actually an interesting educational film! rare!
The acting in the film, for me, was not very good especially on the part of Julia Stiles. Thankfully Josh Hartnett and Mekhi Phifer were able to compensate for this.The film was very intense and built up to the climax great. Was very powerful and I think the operatic music really brought the film together as an art house film for me.
The film for me is worth the money. But the film is very underrated. Especially due to what Tim Blake Nelson was able to do with a low budget. But needed some special features to help sell it's self.
4 star acting
5 star directing/editing
3 star DVD extras
so.... 4 star overall.
Brilliant & Breathtaking.

A brilliant film in my opinion. Tim Blake Nelson brings an old story into the modern era. Fantastic story with great acting. A story full of twists and turns and sheer hatred. A must see
