Week 9: My Thoughts

I did not like the Branagh version of Hamlet.  Then Branagh turned Hamlet into a girly movie and come on there was only one scene that had very much blood.  Branagh could have used lots of blood at the end of the movie when everyone was dying but no he turned that decent action scene into a girly action scene.  The fight between Hamlet and Laertes would have been ten time better if Hamlet and Laertes would have been bleeding every where or if when Hamlet threw his sword at his uncle blood would have squirted everywhere when the sword hit him.  But no the only person that bleed was Robin Williams, seriously.  I also did not like the time period that he put it in. However Branagh does play a good crazy person.  These are my thoughts on Kenneth Branagh's version of Hamlet.

  1. I think Branagh is an amazing director, I mean think about it, he made a Shakespeare play slightly interesting.
