The only one of Branagh's Shakespeare films I've seen is Henry V.
It's one of my least favorite plays (totally illogical plot) but I liked Branagh's version of Much Ado About Nothing although Michael Keaton was badly directed and way over the top as Dogberry, and, as usual, Keanu Reeves as Don John was totally wooden. However, the rest of the cast were great and I liked the whole feel of it.
