The VHS Club Reviews Hamlet (2000)
This time on The VHS Club, we're diving into yet another modern adaptation of a Shakespeare play. This time it's Hamlet. Released in 2000, Hamlet features Ethan Hawke, Sam Shepard, Liev Schreiber, Julia Stiles, and Bill Murray (among others). Like 10 Things I Hate About You, this movie updates the setting and the story into "modern" times. Does it work? Join us to find out what we think.
