1.		Henry V [1989] from Universal Pictures UK Price: £5.98 Customer Review: Shakespeare's Henry V is lavish, poetic and dramatic. The plot is simple: Young Henry V lays claim to the French throne and invades France to claim it. The rag tag English army make their way through France conquering city after city. On their way to Calais, they are met by superior, better equipped... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		As You Like It [2006] from Lions Gate Home Entertainment Price: £4.98 Customer Review: Kenneth Branagh's film of As You Like It received a pretty cool critical reception as I remember. Amazon reviewers don't appear to be overwhelmed either. I came to it with low expectations but enjoyed it far more than I ever hoped I would. Yes - the 19th century Japanese setting is a bit... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Much Ado About Nothing [1993] from Entertainment in Video Customer Review: Flicking through my recommendations on Amazon today I came across this. Well I bought it when it first came out on DVD so thought I would add my voice to those other reviews about the quality. I won't say to much about the film. For me it was very, very enjoyable. Well acted (a pleasure to see so... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Love's Labour's Lost [2000] from Pathe Distribution Price: £3.98 Customer Review: The joyous sweep of Branagh's "Much Ado" or the logic of the concept in his "Twelfth Night" are missing. The cuts are too great and the song and dance numbers can outstay their welcome, so that the unique flavour and pleasures of the play get lost. Branagh should have had the courage to... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		"Hamlet" (York Notes Advanced) from Longman Price: £4.76 Customer Review: Really great book that can be used throughout A level study or as a last minute revision guide.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		Twelfth Night [1996] from Entertainment in Video Price: £4.98 Customer Review: I love this film! Shakespeare converted well into film form is a delight (see Branagh's 'Much Ado' as well) and this film is excellent. All the characters are note perfect, and there is not a single weak performance amongst them. Although some scenes are swapped around or merged, that... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Hamlet [1990] from Momentum Pictures Customer Review: Surprisingly good, and another side to Mel Gibson. Don't have much to do with Shakespear normally but got this free in a Sunday paper and decided to watch it. Pleasantly surprised to find me gripped enough to watch it all the way through.

8.		William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream [1999] from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment Price: £5.98 Customer Review: How can I communicate the aberration that this represents? I hope that a number of you will be repelled simply to hear that the roles of Hermia and Helena are taken (and then forgotten about) by those mascots of "Pretty but Pointless", Calista Flockhart and Anna Friel. Calista Flockhart rides... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		The Merchant of Venice from MGM Home Ent. (Europe) Ltd Price: £4.98 Customer Review: I LOOKED FORWARD TO RELISHING THE DUKE OF ARAGON's WONDROUS SPEECH, SURELY ONE OF THE FINEST IN ALL THE BARDS PLAYS, TO WHIT "THE FOOL MULTITUDE WHO JUDGE BY SHOW, CARING ONLY FOR WHAT THE FOND EYE DOTH TEACH ...

10.		The Magic Flute [2006] from Revolver Entertainment Price: £7.48 Customer Review: Love Branagh. Hate opera. Thought I'd give this a shot and I quite enjoyed it but I am not converted. Helped that it was in English. However, what I don't like about Opera is the way, particularly the women sing, it is not a natural noise. I don't understand what they are trying to say and the plot... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
