Critic Reviews for A Midsummer Night's Dream

Taymor's "Dream" is, in Bottom's words, a most rare vision. It flickers before us almost too quickly, passing by "swift as a shadow, short as any dream."

Julie Taymor's off-the-stage filmed production of A Midsummer Night's Dream has a phantasmagoric visual fluidity that emphasizes the play's uncanny unsettling nature more than its carnival silliness.

For filmed theater, this is about as immersive and immediate as it gets.

All's well that ends well, of course, not that there was any doubt of that. The visual marvel, in fact, outweighs the tale.

Hyper-flexible theater star Kathryn Hunter as Puck is a marvel.

This Dream is still out of this world.
