Writer and director Julie Taymor comes full circle with her fourth feature with another bold attempt on Shakespeare. The revenge tale about a powerful and exiled magician who plans to lure the culprits into her island to settle scores. Shakespeare's flawless language gets striking visuals with an all star cast including Helen Mirren as Propera, the female version of Prospero. Taymor strikes the right balance between style and substance where they complement each other. Mirren and the talented supporting cast are more than capable that should delight fans everywhere.
