Hamnet Ratings & Reviews
- James Saenzhace 2 d“the rest is silence.” for almost the entirety of the runtime i felt disengaged from this film; i could feel it fervently trying to appeal to pathos, every single audio cue and directorial choice desperately trying to garner sympathy and manufacture an atmosphere of sorrow that hardly ever felt authentic. undoubtedly the performances were staggering (most obviously and notably from jessie buckley, who commands the scene in every second she’s on screen), but it felt like it was trying too hard to make me feel sad that it more often than not ended up making me feel ambivalent. the ending changed that for me. the moment agnes reaches out to touch the actor playing hamlet is the moment the film finally won me over and i broke down in tears. of course that’s the point and the thematic and emotional climax of the film, but it could’ve easily been mishandled and instead it stuck the landing. this made a very interesting double feature with sentimental value; both films circle around artists unable to communicate the complexities of their emotions in normal conversation and so seek to express themselves to their estranged loved ones through art. a beautiful concept that worked far better in sentimental value for me, but zhao also managed to deliver something here that touched me.
- 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
- hill.r2hace 2 dQuite boring
- finders29 de marzo de 2026Wow! I am not normally one for venturing to films with Oscar nominations, I often end up disappointed. Nor normally one for ‘period’ or ‘historical’ dramas. But Hamnet just simply and seamlessly draws you in. Jessie Buckley is magnetic. And a hats off to Noah Jupe whose performance (alongside Buckley and Paul Mescal) in the last 15 mins brought tears to the eye. Outstanding. Loved it. I’m getting soppy in my old age.
- hugoagogo6928 de marzo de 2026Beautifully filmed and excellent acting by all the cast. Jessie Buckley deserved her bafta and oscar for this.
- russrev1ews26 de marzo de 2026I was really scared to watch this movie because I have a five year-old and I was struggling with the idea of having to watch the loss of a child. Nonetheless, I did watch and I am really glad I did because it was such a powerful movie about parenthood and the inner excavation that you feel as a parent. Like you really do lose a part of interior into the livelihood of your child and I think that’s a really hard thing to capture and Chloe Zhao did a great job of doing that. I thought all the performances were great and to quote my friend Evan, “it was a movie about death that made you want to live life.”
- hairydemon17 de marzo de 2026The rise of neo-fascist cinema or just plain entertainment? What would Huxley have said?
- davidj88616 de marzo de 2026Just 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
- 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
- tom_wen16 de marzo de 2026A solid 4, and the lead actress did do an amazing job, but I just felt that the script was a little “light.”
- nickpatong16 de marzo de 2026Avoid at all cost
- 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
