Review of Hamlet


The play of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark is a tragedy by William Shakespeare. It regards as one of the best tragedy in the English literature. The story is about prince Hamlet want to revenge for his father. The story began with a hush and dark night. The guard got shock to see the dead king ghost and told Horatio. In the second night, they came to see the ghost again and the ghost told them:” I was murdered by your uncle, Claudius. The prince Hamlet swears to kill, his uncle, the king Claudius. Eventually, Gertrude, Claudius, Laertes, and Hamlet are all dead. And Fortinbras, prince of Norway, gave the last honor for Prince Hamlet.

Through the study of the play Hamlet, I have learned that I should strive to find a balance between my desire to act and react immediately and my desire to think before and consider the all possibilities before acting. As shown through the tragic death of Hamlet, a person who spends too much time thinking and asking may never be able achieve his purpose. However, as Hamlet said, a person who acts without rational thought is no different from a beast.
