This is one of those movies that probably every British lit class has seen. I know there were people who fell asleep in my lit class when I took this course ten years ago. And there seems to be a sharp contrast between those who like and those who don't. But the movie is not bad in my opinion - at least compared to reading the actual play.
Mel Gibson played Hamlet wonderfully. And Helena Bonham Carter looked hot. Although it's been ten years since I last watched Hamlet, I remembered the casting, acting, costumes, and background scenes being well done. I'm not a big fan of movies based on old British plays, but if you're going to watch one, this one isn't too bad.
