A Midsummer Night's Dream Ratings & Reviews
Movie Metropolis
John J. Puccio
...overdone, overproduced, overblown, overacted.... Shakespeare gets rather lost in the shuffle, but it's hard to deny the film isn't fun to watch.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Feast for eyes and ears Shakespeare whimsy
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Gorgeous to look at, unevenly acted.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Bold and impressive, Reinhardt's screen version of his famous Hollywood Bowl Shakespearean production was nominated for the Best Picture Oscar.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
This "merry carnival drama" is pretty loose Shakespeare ("Holy Zeus! It's a busy night in Athens today!" one intertitle reads), but it does give good eye candy...
McCall's
Pare Lorentz
A fine, merry, lovely and melodious picture.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Shakespeare's romp involving young lovers and forest fairies finds an appropriate outlet in a filmic take that employs classical music, elaborate ballets, and a cast mixing classically trained thespians with Hollywood hambones.
