The tandem Scott/Giger definitely works, but man what an absolute waste of time that was. Where should I begin? The story line is completely broken, unnecessary characters live and then die, etc. A total failure.

One thing though: Fassbender plays David perfectly.

Opponents of the Shakespeare authorship question may not like to see a chap named Will Shakespeare turned into ridicule.

But if you don't mind, then you're up for a great story and actors playing perfectly well.

Occasionally, you can catch breathtaking eagle-eyed views of the 16th century London.
