The Tempest Reviews & Ratings

Average viewer score of 5.3/10 from 138 ratings.

Filipe Manuel Neto

2/10

**A film that seemed very promising, but ended up being very disappointing.** I have to say that I have never read _The Tempest_ and I needed, before seeing the film, to read a little about the original play. Personally, I really like the works of William Shakespeare and have read several of his plays. And I've also noticed that the most staunch defenders of the renowned author's work are sometimes quite suspicious…
