mickman91-1 Review of Hamlet

Hamlet (2009 TV Movie)

Tennant is solid but not the Hamlet we endear the most to. Quick paced dynamic production makes a complete version of the play run at a nice pace

[6/10 · 7 February 2022]

There are a million and one Hamlet's so I will briefly list the merits of this one: --Interesting camerawork and staging make a very long and exhausting play dynamic and supportive to the intellectual rigour required of the audience --David Tennant is technically an excellent Hamlet, portraying the full range. But he perhaps never quite makes himself vulnerable enough to invoke as much pathos as he should.

--A complete version of the play but the pacing is quick and energetic meaning it fits into 3 hours.
