How does the movie Scotland PA contribute to or detract from the play Macbeth?

It's contribution is in the fact that younger people watched it and had no idea they were actually watching Shakespeare. The detraction is that it is modernized and the feeling doesn't come through. All in all anything that makes younger viewers see Shakespeare in any form is a plus, and the script and acting was fantastic.
