Critic Reviews of "Hamlet (1990)"
VarietyJuly 04, 2008Performances all fall in a middle range between the competent and the lackluster.
Time OutJune 24, 2006It's a surprisingly successful venture, decked out in Anglo-Saxon styles and with a brooding, robust castle setting which oozes horse muck.
New York TimesOctober 04, 2003[Mel Gibson] is by far the best part of Mr. Zeffirelli's sometimes slick but always lucid and beautifully cinematic version of the play.
Rolling StoneJune 06, 2001Gibson gives the melancholy Dane an earnest but pedestrian reading.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000Reduced to 'Master Pieces Theater,' Shakespeare's text nevertheless gains in force what it loses in integrity.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000There's nothing embarrassing about Zeffirelli's brisk new version, nor anything particularly remarkable; it's an entirely credible, middle-of-the-road production.
EmanuelLevy.ComJune 06, 2012Starring Mel Gibson, Zeffirelli's Oscar-nominated version is colorful and mildly engaging, but lacking depth and poetry, and the two women are miscast.
Three Movie BuffsFebruary 19, 2012Alas, poor Mel Gibson! I knew him when he was on top of the world.
Common Sense MediaJanuary 02, 2011Mel Gibson emotes as the doleful Dane.
TV GuideJuly 04, 2008Offers what amounts to a comic book intro to Shakespeare's classic, retaining few of the play's psychological complexities.
F5 (Wichita, KS)June 23, 2004In retrospect, it's a small jump from Shakespeare to God. What if Gibson had been stopped then?
Film4October 04, 2003Not only is Mel Gibson much better than you might expect, but Zeffirelli's Hamlet is often entertaining and rarely hard to endure.
