Hamnet Ratings & Reviews
- Kevin Ward7d agoGood Grief. This didn't hit as hard as I was expecting, but still that Jessie Buckley primal wail nearly wrecked me.
- cultfilmlikerDecember 13, 2025Portrait of a Lady that’s Tired I don’t get it tho - why did he call it HamLET Excruciating. Incredible music. Very effective little boy acting! I am so in love with Jessie Buckley. Perfect Oscar bait for her. She can and will win. Meanwhile I’m still constantly thinking about her performance in I’m Thinking Of Ending Things Got captioning glasses bc I knew it was Irish actors playing old Britains. They didn’t help considering I’m legally blind but it was close! Luckily didn’t need it for MOST of the film smh Watched at Warren Regal 21
- thomasrogers753December 16, 2025Mescal and Buckley give absolutely some of the best performances I’ve seen all year The Shakespearean langue’s lowkey was hard for me to follow at times but I mean this was a powerful movie
- justi7607December 10, 2025Very well done film all the way through with Stellar performances by Buckley, Pescal, and Alwyn.
- LivewireAdminDecember 8, 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
