I have seen it. Helen Mirren is quite wonderful as is Ben Wishaw as Ariel. I will not comment further as I know Julie and she sees all. michael

Wow -- who knew The Tempest was as explosive and spectacular (and loud) as "Lord of the Rings"!?
I've wondered for a long time why no one's made a real film of the play. I wasn't a huge fan of "Titus," but Taymor is brilliant and she's got some good actors in the mix. Should be a treat. Michael, you'll probably see it before any of us -- send your review once it's ready!
