It thought it was a solid, worthy adaptation of the classic. Mel Gibson is interesting as Hamlet. Franco Zeffirelli could have done a better job as the director and the screenplay could use some refinement.

Mel Gibson has a fascinating attempt to convey the atmosphere of Hamlet but doesn't quite make land a lot of the lines to convey the story.

One of the worst movie I have ever seen, only finish it because it was a school assignment

PS: The face of the king in the play scene is the best of the movie
