I really don't understand why there are so many really negative reviews and positive reviews being downvoted. Is it Daisy? Is it that someone's approached Shakespeare from a new angle?
I'll never find out the answer but it's a real shame.
I really loved this movie. I wasn't sure on Daisy in this kind of role having only seen her in Star Wars before but I actually think she played it beautifully. I have seen someone else say they think this would have been a Kiera Knightley role ten years ago and I agree, but she would have ruined it. It needed to be understated. It needed to be timid as well as strong. None of that makes sense I suppose but in my head it does.
I'm not a fan of Naomi Watts or Clive Owen but they were watchable and actually I cried for Naomi's Gertrude at the end.
The costumes are gorgeous, the scenery and settings beautiful and the soundtrack is wonderful, especially the music playing over the ending scenes.
It made me interested in Hamlet again.
