Coriolanus is the film adaptation of one of William Shakespeare’s plays. It tells the story of a hero banished from Rome, forced to ally himself with the enemy to get revenge. Ralph Fiennes directed and starred in the film along side beefy Gerard Butler, Brian Cox, and Jessica Chastain. Hmmm, is it just me or does Coriolanus seem like a name that is just ready to be made fun of. However, once you see Coriolanus on screen I bet no one will be making fun because he looks like he could mess a person up. Just like he’s about to mess up Rome! See it in theaters January 13, 2012

I’m excited for Coriolanus. I haven’t seen a good Shakespeare film adaptation in a while. Hope it doesn’t disappoint.
