Fun, funny, funnier, funniest farce I have seen in many a day. The Bard should be smiling down on this one. Never Say Macbeth lifts the curse with laughter and sweetness. This is one time you should definitely say Macbeth. Go to Full Review

What the film has that so many of its impoverished cousins lack, is a fairly delightful personality, and a cute story born not of anybody's conflicted relationship with sex or obsession with urban life, but of an unbridled love for live theater. Go to Full Review

Former Chicagoan Joe Gold wrote and stars in this not bad little comedy that is long on theatrical tradition and stereotypical characters (including a few gay ones). Not surprisingly, the material would lend itself very well to a stage adaptation. Go to Full Review

...sweetened by the 'let's put on a show!' quality of the filmmaking. Theater lovers, in particular, should get a kick out of this slight but likable effort. Go to Full Review

See more 10/06/2008 Never Say Macbeth is a movie for a narrow audience -- theater fans and stage actors. For that audience, it will be indispensable viewing. For anyone else, don't bother.
