It was written by Tom Stoppard who may be the world's greatest living dramatist and has spent his career deconstructing Shakespeare. It was witty and romantic. What didn't you like about it?

I found it to have an amazing lack of wit and romance. Give me an example of the wit. I've read instruction manuals for calculators that had more wit. I love Shakespeare and I was looking forward to seeing the movie, but I was gobsmacked at how bad it was. Shakespeare was an ignorant dullard. Almost every charcter in the movie was unlikeable.
