Mckellen's use of tone shift and facial expressions are the reasons he is such a renowned actor. This elite acting paired with such great directing makes for a thrilling movie. It is exemplified in the dagger scene using shadows and the dagger along with the close up into a slow pan to show McKellan's contemplativeness. Overall a great film and a great watch for fans of Shakespeare or Mckellen.

Kenneth Branagh is MARVELOUS

Branagh has delivered yet another spectacular performance, his subtle tone shift is able to make the dagger scene especially memorable, the film adaptation has a decent use of camera angles, great for a filmed live play.
