Review of "William Shakespeare's The Empire Striketh Back" on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Ahh, quite wonderful. What a nice way to relive these films, in iambic pentameter. He has also varied the language a little more since the last one, not so much reliance on Fi! and other more cliché bits of Shakespearean language.
I especially enjoy the emphasis on the minor characters and some of their thoughts. It even makes you feel sad for the space slug (the one in the asteroid) who has a woeful soliloquy about perhaps his last meal getting away.
