Even though I value and to some extent appreciate the work of Shakespeare, I do not know it in detail. Therefore I cannot compare the film with Othello and will judge the film as a separate unit. The story, of course, has a lot of material to work from but somehow I feel that all the characters were set without reason or background. Like we came at a story half way through, seeing how it all ended. There were surprisingly few well laid out, challenging conversation, and all motives or drivers behind any actions very unreal or vague. To top it, I was unsure as to what sort of a film it was meant to be. A love story, a thriller, action or what ever. There is simply not enough focus on any one part of the story to get you interested in the dreams and lives of one or more characters. The actors did OK as such, nothing remarkably good or bad. I think one of the downfall was the lack of suspense and/or speed. The film being rather flat and sometimes bordering on boring. 5/10

I just finished watching "O" and let me tell you its cooler than i though it would be,Josh Harnett who i personally hated on Pearl Harbor did a great job,Julia stiles who i personally hated on Save the last Dance did a very sexy and cool sex scene and it was o.k,(althought it makes you think on how she always ends up being the black guy girl?) Anyway...the movie was great and you´ll never guess the ending, Its so depressing and it takes you through the whole adventure,I just loved it.

I Personally Thought Mekhi Phifer Gives One Of His Best And Brilliant Dramatic Performance Of His Career And Also This is His First Big Movie Role As He Plays a Young Famous Wannabe Basketball Player And Who's Popular At a High School And Later On Who Gets Caught Up in a Web Of Seduction, Betrayal And Possibly Might Be To Commit Murder. "O" Co Stars Julia Stiles, Josh Hartnett, Martin Sheen And John Heard. i Really Enjoyed This Film And Like i Said Before This Movie Had Great Acting I'm it.

Josh Hartnett is a revelation in this modern update of Othello. All of the actors shine in this film, but Hartnett comes off as being undeniably cool and memorable. When you think about it though, the film gets very convoluted. Since this is Shakespeare, we are not expected for the story elements to transcend into real life; unfortunately the film does try, and ultimately fails in making the story realistic. For example, Iago's (Hugo?) master plan seems only possible in a fictitious world, and the plan seems to rely too much on luck and the film's script for it to really work. This is very distracting to the audience, cause you never buy a minute of it. The acting is superb though, and it is refreshing to see a teen movie pushed in a different direction for a change. Mild recommendation.

After watching this, I realized how important this film will be. For one reason, the demograph on the failed attempt of 1995's Othello (Lawrence Fishburne)is not directed towards teenagers. This movie has the cast of teenflick stars such as, Josh Harnett and Julia Stiles. Teens will be interested in watching this film. And it is a good thing also, this was a great movie. Though it isn't a masterpiece or brilliantly shot, it still got the tragic story of Othello very well depicted. If you are a fan of Shakespeare, you cannot miss watching this movie. 9 out of 10

'O' is a terrible conversion of 'Othello'. It attempts to update the classic tragedy of jealousy with modern high school drama, but comes off as sensationalist and overblown instead of gripping and traumatic (well, traumatic to watch, maybe). Basically, it is predicated off the notion of a failed romance between a black high school basketball star and a white blonde girl (Christina Ricci) who the Iago-figure likes too. From there, it degenerates into every newspaper headline about violent teens toting pistols, ready to kill at the drop of a hat. The whole movie feels ridiculous and contrived. The best part? In the trailer, there's a great song (The Cult's "Painted on my Heart"), but it's not in the movie. Oh, well! 3/10. Don't see it. Go out and see 'Othello' instead.

Ok. This movie, while being very well crafted and extremely attention-grabbing, was very, very disturbing. If you haven't seen this movie, but want to, make sure that you watch it on an empty stomach, and that there's someone around for emotional support. Maybe I'm just a softy, being a person who NEVER watches violent films. Still, this movie had me physically ill, crying, and emotionally wrecked for a couple of days. If you like violence, GREAT movie. If not, think twice.

"O" is a movie unlike anyother I have even been given the privalidge of seeing. It doesn't let the modern concern of trying to make it "happy" get in the way of it point. The acting and cinematography are wonderful and the best I have seen in a long time. This film truly encompasses the feeling of Shakespeare, yet places it into modern society. You feel for the characters as you witness thier lives. It is a wonderful movie that leaves you with a lasting impression. I reccomend this movie to anyone who can understand a serious film. Rating: 10/10

After the success of a modern romeo and julliet, this film tries to update othello. The middleage battle field becomes an 21st century basketball field. At first sight, that is ok. But, this meens that our protoganist now will try to destroy O only because he is the mvp off the schoolteam. And there you lost me. I' didn't believe one second of this film. Our protagonist is a young modern guy, acting like an old king in 13th century England. Awful
