“The Scottish Play is fun. The movie is amusing and emotionally fulfilling in all its themes and homage to Shakespeare, along with discussions on the playwright’s traits. The film will make you laugh, and it shall excite you, but it successfully remains heart-warming.”

“ Boynton cleverly begins playing with Shakespeare lore by diving right into the curse. The Scottish Play strikes and makes something unique out of the old myths. Boynton hides layers of subtexts and ironies throughout the film. He plays with the idea of Macbeth’s curse and deliberately creates two opposing discussions."

 “There’s a lot to love about The Scottish Play, which deals with questions of creation and change with enough introspection to be meaningful and enough courage to still have fun with the entire premise of Shakespeare’s ghost showing up to help a local troupe build something for themselves.”

Evan Dossey,

Midwest Film Journal

"This [film] gives us an original idea of the mystery around the play … There is plenty of potential from meeting an author of an original play and how their vision has changed over the years. The performances in the movie are strong, with Tina Benko and Will Brill playing out the conversation between the two throughout the film.”
