Exciting, Alive and Vibrant
Reviewed by criddic2 for Hamlet at 2009-08-24 03:43:17
This is the only uncut version of Shakespeare's play committed to film. As such, it is a relief to find it done so well. While not all of the star-studded cast fit too easily (Jack Lemmon is a bit ill-at-ease in a brief bit), but others fare quite well (Heston, Crystal). Excellent production design, and great performances from Branagh, Winslet, Jacobi and Christie. If you fear the 4 hour running time, the Gibson version is fine. But if you want great cinema, this is the best version.

Solid Cast, Sweet-natured Movie
Reviewed by criddic2 for The Grass Harp at 2009-08-24 02:46:45
I was lucky enough to see this on a big-screen at a local theater the year it came out. Although it takes its time to tell the story, the cast is so good you probably won't mind.

One of Their Best
Reviewed by criddic2 for Out to Sea at 2009-08-24 02:43:44
I laugh more with their zany antics here than I do during either "Grumpy Old Men" movie. The whole cast seems to be having a blast, so it's hard resist joining them.

Two Films in One, Enjoy Both
Reviewed by reisen55 for The Great Race at 2009-07-12 17:17:28
I admit bias here, loved it in 1965. Years later, there are 2 films here: a 30 minute hysterical intro and the 2 hour race itself. The intro intimidates the latter race section, which is necessarily longer. But Lemmon's Professor Fate is a classic villain and well worth the time. You cannot find a more colorful film EVER. If I have a negative, I would cut 10 minutes of it along the way here and there. This film is a warm visit with a good friend.

Something's Rotten
Reviewed by shanahan for Hamlet at 2009-04-18 16:18:03
FOUR BONES? Have you been at the dognip? This thing is ghastly! Hamlet swinging on a chandelier across the room in the final scene? Give me a break - or a poison-tipped sword. This is like a Corman send-up of Shakespeare, without any of the humor. See Mel Gibson do his wired Prince, Nicol Williamson do his haunted Prince. (Skip Olivier's self-aggrandizing Prince-as-Young-Werther.) But stay away from this bizarrely inadvertent parody: Prince-as-Doug-Fairbanks.
