The film is sweet. It is often amusing. It is only the teensiest bit dull. ...read the complete Midsummer Night's Dream movie review at Jam! Movies (Liz Braun)
Midsummer Night's Dream, A (1999) scores a combined 2.00 out of 4 stars for Steve RhodesSteve Rhodes
Partially modernizing the drama, Hoffman sets the action in Italy at the turn of the 19th century. The opening credits explain that it was a time when the bustle was on the wane and the bicycle was on the rise, which were compatible trends.
