This isn’t Shakespeare at his best, but it also isn’t him at his worst, and considering that Shakespeare at his worst would still at minimum be two-and-a-half stars, we probably shouldn’t be too snobbish at the sight of three (if I’d made that sentence any more convoluted it would’ve qualified as a Shakespearean grammatical love triangle). Most of Shakespeare’s plays are a thrill to read as well as to watch, but for this one you’re probably better off just watching.
