Hamnet - Nel nome del figlio Ratings e Recensioni
- LivewireAdmin8 dicembre 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
- EmperorWatcher18 h faPowerful stuff here. The first Soliloquy delivery is the best of 2.. remarkable, and the 2nd is terrific. I had no idea what I was in for here. Great to have no expectations. The first act had me puzzled, but the unfolding is quite noteworthy.
- MarioW20 h fabeautiful and touching
- Hairon_p.h5 febbraio 2026I love movies that make me cry from sadness and happiness.
- wllmr1 g faAllowing multiple ideas to battle it out at the same time. Marvelous. Actors and camera and setting and music all battling for what they want and none giving up ground easily.
- rg94004 febbraio 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.
- Krista Glover2 gg faI 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
- Kevin Ward18 dicembre 2025Good Grief. This didn't hit as hard as I was expecting, but still that Jessie Buckley primal wail nearly wrecked me.
- Hakihiko5 febbraio 2026Graceful, Intimate, and Deeply Powerful "Hamnet" is an extraordinary film: delicate, emotionally devastating, and crafted with remarkable elegance. It's the kind of movie that speaks softly yet leaves a profound impact, lingering long after it ends. The performances are simply outstanding. Every emotion feels lived-in and authentic, carried with restraint and depth rather than excess. The cast delivers something rare: performances that feel intimate and universal at the same time, grounding the film's grief and love in something painfully real. Direction is confident and sensitive, allowing the story to unfold at its own pace without ever feeling slow. The film trusts silence, gestures, and small moments, and that trust pays off beautifully. The cinematography is stunning, with fantastic shots that feel almost painterly, while never losing their emotional purpose. The music is splendid, subtle, evocative, and perfectly placed. It enhances the emotional weight without ever manipulating it, blending seamlessly with the visuals and performances to create a deeply immersive experience. "Hamnet" is a film of rare emotional intelligence and artistic control. It's moving, elegant, and quietly devastating; a true cinematic achievement. Easily one of the best movies of 2025.
- samotsama3 febbraio 2026Amazing performances
- nightcatnl4 gg faSlow and long
- Delroy G James7 gg faThis was a quietly devastating drama that unfolds with patience and emotional precision. Rather than relying on shock, it lets grief and love settle in gradually, making the impact even more profound. Jessie Buckley delivers a deeply affecting performance, anchoring the film with raw vulnerability and strength. A beautifully acted, award-worthy story that lingers long after it ends.
- makdelart19 febbraio 2026I generally avoid tearjerkers because these films are usually charlatanism. It's easiest to make a film about a dying child or a mother who has cancer, and everyone around them cries, sad music plays, and “what a beautiful film.” Here, we do have a fragment of Shakespeare's biography, so the story is not entirely fictional (which would somehow justify the events shown), but it has been filtered through the prism of a contemporary novel by Maggie O'Farrell. In addition, Max Richter's heart-wrenching music is a typical element of charlatanism here. On the plus side, I definitely count the spectacular photography in natural lighting, the set design, the costumes, and Jessie Buckley's acting.
- yusefcabrera19 febbraio 2026This is one of those films that really needs to be experienced in the cinema. I sat with strangers left and right, and we all cried! Those final moments in the film carried so much emotion and catharsis. Then it all fades to black and the credits roll but the cinema lights don't turn on yet.. And you sit there with the palpable silence of the audience and that haunting music all movie lovers know. Few films have that impact where the emotions of the audience (in the film's theater) extend to the theater you're sitting in. Currently my best film of 2026!
- hokasu19 febbraio 2026Beautiful.. a bit of an acting demonstration
