The great thing about the words of Shakespeare is that you can move his works into different periods of history,make it work,and have great fun with it.Ethan Hawkes' rendition of "Hamlet" and Ian McKellan's "Richard III" come to mind as prime examples of great adaptations.This bloodbath,alas,is not.The main problem here is that hardly any of The Bard's words are left in this overwrought gangster film.To even infer,as in the opening credits,that this film is based on Macbeth is a crime in itself.This film is absolutely wretched.John Turturro has never been worse.In fact,there are a number of fine actors here who should have known better.But,I guess that's what you get for trying to mount a production of "Macbeth".The superstition regarding this play that all theater actors are well-versed in,must apply to attempting to put it on screen as well.This is probably the worst film I have seen in weeks.
