To be or not to be

Almereyda's Hamlet Version:
     The setting took place in Blockbuster, and it seems that there's nobody in the store, so I'm guessing it happened during late night. In here it showed that Hamlet was seeking revenge and was also talking about life and death to himself. In my opinion, I don't really like this version, the setting doesn't really make any sense to me, as well as the plot.

Zeffirelli's Hamlet Version:
     Honestly, I really like this version better than the other ones. The setting seems pretty reasonable since Hamlet is in the catacombs and he seems sad when talking to his dad. Also when he was talking to himself he seemed somewhat curious about life and death.

Olivier's Hamlet Version:
     this version caught my attention when he was thinking of the speech and then all of a sudden starts speaking to himself. it seemed less dramatic and was interesting.
