Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Scott C (2,765) on 05 Mar 2013

Kenneth Branagh's version was way better…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Keenan F (1) on 12 Feb 2013

I do agree that Zeffirelli did not strictly follow Shakespeare's Hamlet, but I don't think that it was a bad movie…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Amanda F (170) on 12 Feb 2013

My favorite Shakespeare play and the only film version that does it justice. Helena Bonham-Carter is the best Ophelia I've seen…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Chris V (666) on 11 Feb 2013

Hamlet was a gross display of a take on the play…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Lora K (2) on 10 Feb 2013

Zeffirelli made a mistake by taking on the challenge of making this adaptation…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Kara N (6) on 10 Feb 2013

Zeffirelli's Hamlet is a terrible version of the timeless play by William Shakespeare…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Danielle W (169) on 03 Feb 2013

Fantastic. I have always loved this movie and still do some 20 years after first watching it. I also might add that it has aged very well…

By Aubrey B (78) on 22 Jan 2013

Would rather read this story any day than watch this ever again…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Jen B (231) on 27 Dec 2012

Saw this film, it was awesome,while I do not lke Mel Gibson's more recent actions I do have to say that this film was moving and full of action,…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Jaykumar B (72) on 26 Dec 2012

I think Glenn Close and Helena Bonham Carter - both were good but I wont rate version as the best one of the play…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Walter H (57) on 02 Dec 2012

Personally I prefer this version...even if Hamlet and his mom have a rather odd incestuous relationship. Mel plays the perfect whiny emo Hamlet…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Andrew W (1,668) on 09 Oct 2012

I haven't read the book, but the movie made sense to me, so I'm sure if I read the book, I'd be like...ahhh, interesting…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Thescarlatescu R (226) on 09 Oct 2012

In my opinion a rather weak interpretation, but the stand out is clearly Mel Gibson who plays a great role, as for Glenn Close and Helena Bonham…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Zilla B (27) on 08 Oct 2012

Usually true to the source material, but the changes are way too bizarre…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Jas P (22) on 23 Sep 2012

Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of Shakespeare's play is the best ever…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Éowyn A (71) on 05 Jul 2012

For Shakespeare fans, it will be wildly satisfying. For everyone else...less so…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Spencer B (136) on 13 Apr 2012

This is the only version that I like. It's a very gripping story and Zeffireli manages to capture the right feeling…

Review of Hamlet (1990)

By Noah W (151) on 12 Feb 2012

Overall I think this version of Shakespeareâ(TM)s Hamlet was sub-par. Itâ(TM)s over-acted and poorly produced…
