"To be or not to be" scene

      My favorite version of this scene was the 1800s Hamlet version. I
remember seeing this seen in 8th grade as well and not knowing a thing of what he was saying. The intensity of this scene however is the most dramatic and breathtaking. The fact that he's speaking to himself in a room of mirrors is also very dramatic and adds to the intensity. Hamlet's anger is really shown well in this scene and so much emotion is delivered by his facical expressions alone. The fact that Cluadius is behind the other side of the mirror was kind of strange though. It feels almost too well planned and like it's clearly "just a movie."
 
   I did not like the Mel Gibson scene for this too much. Over all I like Mel Gibson's acting the best out of the three movies but this scene for him seemed rushed. I think it could have been better or made more intriging. It was not a strong scene in the movie. However it should be.

   The modern version was very cool. His emotions were a bit more mellow and personal but the use of props was fantasic. It was like the props fit right in with the absence of his extreme anger. The way they used the VHS cases in the backround was great for that reason. I liked this version second best though I'm not crazy about this version of the movie. It will always be relatable to, considering it is modern times.
