Hamlet

As always when I meet the Danish prince, I had to struggle a little with fragmented mood and plot shocks in the first act, but once it gets going, I was glued to my seat. Benedict Cumberbatch plays a bit less emphatically than, for example, David Tennant a few years ago, but because he was born to play Hamlet, with his stubborn face and unpredictable expression, he has an easier time of winning over the audience.
