I'm a big fan of James McAvoy. He does a great job as being MacBeth and I find this a lot like the real thing. Even though the different scenery is strange, I like how it was taken place in a resteraunt. Very casual and a lot like today, this would be a good thing to watch if someone didn't get the book or play. I feel it would clear a lot up for them. Keeley Hawes also did an amazing job. I really got into it and I just felt like the whole thing was splended.

I love how instead of witches they used garbage men. It was a good idea, everything was done nicely.

A few things I didn't like however, is how fast everything happened. I'm glade it wasn't going on and on but a little longer with a bit more details might have been nicer.

If you don't like to see blood, you might not want to watch this. Personally I don't get bothered by it, but with a weak stomach you might. It wasn't to bad but it had a lot during points of it.
