Critics Consensus

Impressively cast and beautifully filmed, All Is True takes an elegiac look at Shakespeare's final days.

Read Critics Reviews

Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's almost like Shakespeare wrote this movie. Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Soren Andersen Seattle Times The movie's impressive appearance notwithstanding, Shakespeare's domestic problems do not a classic make. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 19, 2019 Full Review Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle Apart from fleeting pleasures, All Is True is mostly a goodie bag stuffed for Shakespeare completists. Rated: 2/5 May 30, 2019 Full Review Max Greene InSession Film All is True pushes the boundaries of truth but at all times the film is true to itself, and that’s all one can ask in a world filled with so many truths to uncover. Rated: B+ Aug 1, 2024 Full Review José C. Donayre Guerrero EscribiendoCine One of the greatest virtues of this film is the intensity that drives the editing of the picture from the very beginning. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 8/10 Jul 25, 2022 Full Review Tom O'Brien Next Best Picture Though much of the film is mere speculation on what the last years of Shakespeare's life may have been like, it is in those extraordinary high points in the film that "All Is True" really does ring true. Rated: 6/10 Jun 14, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Harvey K I don't understand it. I do have a brain injury, probably from trying 😞 to understand it. Have you seen my keys. Also maybe a ride to the shops. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/07/24 Full Review Fong Kok Hoong F Taking the alternative name of Shakespeare's play Henry VIII and transuding melancholia, it is a reimagination of the retirement years of The Bard returning home in Stratford-upon-Avon after Globe theatre perishes in fire in 1613 to brave domestic affairs, grief for his son and an unrequited romanticism with Earl of Southampton. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Michael H The second best movie Branagh's ever done. Shows what Shakespeares final years were like in glorious fashion. A masterpiece from start to finish. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/25/24 Full Review Steve D Branagh's work earns it an extra star but I found the script unconvincing and found some of the other roles miss-cast. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Alec B The screenplay feels a little too simplistic and predictable but Branagh is able to find enough emotionally compelling moments (i.e. the scene with Ian McKellen) so that the bittersweet ending is earned. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/24 Full Review L L Not as great as the trailer made it look, disappointing Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/08/24 Full Review Read all reviews

Synopsis The year is 1613, and Shakespeare is acknowledged as the greatest writer of the age. But disaster strikes when his renowned Globe Theatre burns to the ground. Devastated, Shakespeare returns to Stratford, where he must face a troubled past and a neglected family. Haunted by the death of his only son, Hamnet, he struggles to mend the broken relationship with his wife and daughters. In so doing, he is ruthlessly forced to examine his own failings as a husband and father.
