To be or not to be post

I liked all four of the "to be or not to be" scenes from the four movies but each has their own special trait that made them different and worth seeing. 

    In my opinion, and once again, I liked the Mel Gibson one the best. I loved the setting (inside the catacombs with tombs), and as always Mel Gibson's acting was on point. He made the scene emotional with his actions of walking from place to place and looking at the tombs. It was dark also which made the scene more serious. However, it wasn't really how I pictured it in my head.

      The Olivier one was the one who showed me the portrayal of the scene of how I would have put it. It was set on the roof of a castle looking down on crashing waves with mist all around. At first, he was thinking the speech and it transitioned into him saying it aloud. I thought that was the best part of it to be honest. I also really liked how he would stand on the edge of the castle. It enforced the speech and how it was about contemplating wether suicide or choosing to live is the best choice.

     The branagh's scene was set in the castle with the actor playing Hamlet was staring at himself in the mirror. This, to me, was the best part of the scene. It made the scene thought-provoking because of what the speech is talking about and how the character stares at himself while speaking. It shows a true sense of the contemplation of wether or not suicide is better than living one's life.

      The Almereyda scene, or the most modern version of the "to be or not to be" scene was not as bad this time. I'm not too sure why they would set it in a blockbuster and what the significance of blockbuster is but on one of the TV's it showed someone getting shot and killed. I feel as if that had significance to what the speech was about. Also, in the background the music made the scene that just more emotional and serious, along with the good acting and body language by the actor.
