Review of Hamlet 2 (2008) by Rosemarie S — 26 Aug 2009
Unfortunately, this movie sucked. Steve Coogan was only mildly amusing and Catherine Keener was in it too briefly for there to be any comedy coming from her end (not like there typically would be anything funny coming from her anyways).
Even the "musical" at the end of the movie was stupid. You spend the whole movie being convinced you will witness this really blasphemous and politically incorrect high school musical, but instead you get this really crappy Jesus sing-along movie (?) mixed with time travel and characters from Hamlet.
Ridiculous, but not ridiculous enough to make it absurdly funny. Elizabeth Shue was cute as the actress turned nurse, and Coogan did manage to drop a couple funny lines, but really that was all. Don't watch.
