I always have weird bond with Hamlet’s character.played it in school’s theater.I think good actor plays Hamlet goes to audience.a great actor brings the audience to the character.Certainly Benedict Cumberbatch did that.Benedict Cumberbatch is definitely actor with immense talent and knows how to make character alive.Hamlet was no exception for that.
He is no stranger to stage performances but Hamlet’s enegry was too much to carry for him.He was bit rushy as if he was saving his energy for monologues but still Benedict Cumberbatch is THE Benedict Cumberbatch.So how does Benedict’s Hamlet rate.It was worthy performance filled with passion and he was sound Hamlet in patchy production.
