It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Take "Hamlet." Strip it to it's bare bones. Throw the bones as high as you can up into the air. Assemble them in whatever order they land and you'll pretty much have the plot to "Let The Devil Wear Black."It's been a long standing policy of mine never to criticize an actor for taking a shot at the role of Hamlet. (Even a barely recognizable Hamlet like this one.) I mean, what actor worth his salt *wouldn't* take a run at Hamlet? And truth be told, Jonathan Penner does takes his best shot at it. Unfortunately, Penner and Title torpedo the effort with orgulous writing and plot developments so painfully aimless I kept hoping for Zombie Shakespeare to rise from his grave, shamble onto the set and start ripping those responsible for this embarrassment limb-from-limb.

wow i just saw this last week and i loved it. The cast is amazing, Mary-Louise Parker as a bi-polar Ophelia, Jonathan Penner as an angst ridden hero, Jamey Sheridan as an evil Claudius, Phillip Baker Hall, Maury chaykin, it's so funny and well done. Doesn't talk down to you.A truly excellent Hamlet adaptation.The look of the film also deserves mention, it is lush and eerie. Very well directed.

have seen this movie three times now. excellent. mary-louise parker is so sexy.and this piece is wild. it has a wicked sensibility. funny. the writer is very in tune. there's some beautiful flashback home movie stuff. but mostly gorgeous 35mm.i assume this was done independently... fantastic acting, and it moves. well let's just come out and say it: it's hot.

this is well worth a viewing. satisfying and filmic -- a standout. a great director...is this a gal or guy? just cause the sex scenes are steamy. mary louise parker is excellent here, crazy and haunting. penner is great. jamey sheridan, maury chaykin this just has an awesome cast and it's a blast.
