I liked it, but it was certainly not spectacular like Shakespeare's big plays. The plot has more issues than most of his other plays; what is really most interesting about it is how problematic it is. Still, the plot, though not original, brings up a great deal of questions that are still relevant today, and the characters (namely Isabella) are pretty good for how short this is. Three stars simply because I really dislike how he ended up throwing everything together at the end, but the themes are nice.
