Hamnet Ratings & Reviews
- hairydemonhace 6 dThe rise of neo-fascist cinema or just plain entertainment? What would Huxley have said?
- davidj886hace 7 dJust finished Hamnet A deep grief shared offers a portal for the living and the dead thru which the living reconnect with life and the dead find their place in our hearts. Sweet film
- tom_wenhace 7 dA solid 4, and the lead actress did do an amazing job, but I just felt that the script was a little “light.”
- LivewireAdmin8 de diciembre de 2025I think the only reason I was able to reasonably hold it together through this is because the person next to me in the theater was absolutely sobbing and essentially crying for the both of us. I say reasonably, I still had a few tears running down the side of my face. Amazing performances, specifically Jessie Buckley and Jacobi Jupe. I now feel the urge to consume a bunch of Shakespeare's work. I feel like understanding more of his plays will allow me to pick up on more things in this, it's the type of movie that feels incredibly layered. Shit, this actually has me considering a re-watch of Eternals

- Krista Glover27 de febrero de 2026I am absolutely broken after watching Hamnet. 😭 I had no idea Shakespeare had a son, Hamnet, who died at only 11 years old. The film shows how Hamlet wasn't just a play it was William’s way of saying goodbye to his son because he was away working when his son actually passed. By playing the Ghost himself in the play, Shakespeare metaphorically 'died' on stage so his son could be the one who stayed alive as Shakespeare wished had been the case in real life. Naming the play and the main character Hamlet was also his way of making sure that his son would continue to live on as long as it was performed on stage. This film deserves every Oscar. Prepare to cry your eyes out
- rg94004 de febrero de 2026I bawled. Grief is such a hard thing to capture and convey in a movie. It's doubly hard when the viewer expects it. I think it's no secret what this movie is about, and a lot of viewers will go into it expecting that moment. For it to work despite those expectations is very impressive. Chloe Zhao's signature bucolic scenery is omnipresent throughout this movie, and there's this dusting of magical realism that gives the movie an almost ethereal feel. However, the real driving force of this movie is Jessie Buckley. Don't get me wrong, Paul Mescal is great as well. However, it is Buckley that is the living, beating heart of this movie, and all Zhao has to do is zoom into her face, and the rest just works. There is a scene where all she is doing is raising her hand to grasp someone, and it broke me. That scene is right up there with some of the best scenes I've seen this year, period. This is a movie about grief, and how we can process and experience it in different ways. I think Zhao and Buckley really capture that theme so poignantly in this movie. I do have one criticism though. The first third of this movie is very slow, and it feels overlong since it's mostly a prologue to the main theme of the movie. I was honestly worried about how I would feel about the movie during this section. Editing it down would have made the movie leaner without losing anything in my opinion. Regardless, this movie hit me hard, so I have to rank it as one of the best movies of the year. I hope Buckley gets her much deserved flowers.
- Evan May11 de marzo de 2026“Hamnet” is a strong illustration of our need for stories to understand and feel our experiences. So well done technically. Score and sound design fill every scene with a sense of presence. Jessie Buckley has a thousand faces, each of them true.
- Hairon_p.h5 de febrero de 2026I love movies that make me cry from sadness and happiness.
- rlindsley11 de marzo de 2026It was ok, but soooooo sloooooowww.
- Audrey Layman8 de marzo de 2026this is the last time I watch Paul Mescal play a sad dad
- Kevin Ward18 de diciembre de 2025Good Grief. This didn't hit as hard as I was expecting, but still that Jessie Buckley primal wail nearly wrecked me.
- Rowan Krzysiak8 de marzo de 2026It's hard for me to be objective. This was genuinely my worst nightmare in every way. It is absolutely terrible but saying that, you might like it.
- Arthur Zepeda8 de marzo de 2026Hamnet was another Best Picture nominee that I probably would not have chosen to watch on my own, but since I have this tradition of working my way through all the nominees, I made sure to give it a chance. I’m glad I did. The film is inspired by the real life family of William Shakespeare and focuses on the story of his son Hamnet. It is very much a period piece, and the movie does a good job placing you in that time in history. There are moments that feel mysterious or a little unusual, but when you remember the beliefs and culture of that era, it all fits within the world the story is trying to show. The movie is definitely driven by emotion, especially as it explores family relationships and loss. At times it felt a little long, but the performances and the atmosphere kept me interested enough to stay with it all the way through. The cinematography and scenery also help bring the time period to life, which I appreciated. In the end, it is not the kind of film I would normally pick on my own, but I’m glad I watched it and I can understand why it received a Best Picture nomination.
- Mancubus997 de marzo de 2026Over rated in my opinion. This was boring from start to finish. It took us 2 attempts to finish it and we only gave it a second try because of the Oscar nomination. We were left scratching our heads as to why, and then we saw that Stephen Spielberg was a producer. That, and it must have been a slow year, because this was not what I would consider Oscar worthy.
