Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The style of Franco Zeffirelli's Hamlet, with Mel Gibson in the title role, is robust and physical and -- don't take this the wrong way -- upbeat.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
There's nothing embarrassing about Zeffirelli's brisk new version, nor anything particularly remarkable; it's an entirely credible, middle-of-the-road production.
– Hal Hinson,
Washington Post,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
[Mel Gibson] is by far the best part of Mr. Zeffirelli's sometimes slick but always lucid and beautifully cinematic version of the play.
– Caryn James,
New York Times,
4 Oct 2003
fresh:
It's a surprisingly successful venture, decked out in Anglo-Saxon styles and with a brooding, robust castle setting which oozes horse muck.
– Derek Adams,

rotten:
Performances all fall in a middle range between the competent and the lackluster.
