Our take

Collaborating with Ethan Hawke on a modern Shakespeare adaptation for the second time, Michael Almereyda spins a crime thriller out of a timeless tale of rival clans. Ed Harris and Dakota Johnson star among the robust cast who wear the Bard’s words lightly in this descent into deceit and anarchy.
