Opinion on Hamlet

It was super cool! 

I thought it was very interesting the cinematography and the approach they did to recreate Hamlet.
I was a little worried that it was going to be too over exaggerated, since the play is written in a old-classic language. But in the videos, they are doing it just fine, they talk with passion but it is not over sell.

 

The cinematography and the way they did the sets was a success too. They had a very dark-desaturated set in most of the scenes, trying to portray mystery/elegance and drama. One of my favorite scenes was this one, where you could see the character, thanks to a blue-spotlight and the fog that was light blue/white. It gave a very mysterious feel and by using the lighting the way they did it, they made the textures of the armature pop out, which makes it very beautiful.   

The acting was very well deliver, I thought it was very interesting to see in some scenes they broke the fourth wall and they made the characters face the audience and deliver the lines like if they were having a conversation with them. All the actors were very into their characters and that made it believable for the audience. The choice of outfits was very interesting too because they didn't stick with one era's outfit but they explored and pushed it a little bit.
