After reading Hamlet in school, I decided to read the reviews on it to see if anyone had the same thoughts as me. I stumbled across an essay called “Hamlet and his problems” and read it thoroughly. I strongly agree with T.S. Eliot’s review on Hamlet. It was an artistic failure for various reasons, firstly, he had many (way too many) characters, to the point that we didn’t really understand their character developments properly. It was also quite hard to understand, with many unnecessary twists and turns. Another reason for this was because of the ending. The ending was indeed quite dumb. Why did all of the characters suddenly die. This is why i rate it 1 star. If I could rate it 0 stars I would.
