Another Tuesday morning that I need to wake up at 8am to go for the movie watching session at 9am. It is not a problem for me, as I am actually enjoy the movie watching session actually. But I was wondering... What kind of movie is Hamlet about? I have no idea or previous knowledge about this movie, never ask my friends and colleagues about it as I would be rather to discover it myself and enjoy the surprises brought by the movie. Hamlet...Well, it sounds love to me, don't ask me why, it just, sounds so. I thought it was another Romeo and Juliet liked movie, but it is not! I was wrong, it is a story that totally different from Romeo and Juliet! I do not know which movie that I can use as an example to describe this movie, however, it seems nice to me!
A little bit sharing with you guys about the movie, you see, is a story about this Prince of Denmark, Hamlet(of course...) who wants to seek for his father's murder(for revenge of course, what else...). Tragically was, the murder is his uncle, Claudius(sounds heroic, but not) who then married his mother and be the King of Denmark. Now the story is interesting. You see, The story in the first place is made for revenge purposes. Why? The more "sins", or crimes that mdae by Claudius, the more that he will pay, is imaginable right? But what kind of "pay" will this Claudius receive later? I was so desperately to find out at that moment. Alright, continue with the story, so Hamlet wants to revenge about his father's death of course but everyone thinks that he is crazy. After Claudius knew what is Hamlet's intention, he tries to poison Hamlet. But things turn out tragically again of course, and the result is the queen, is the one who got poisoned accidentally. Following by that, the truth was completely revealed. So Hamlet also faces the death because he has been cut by a sword that poisoned too.Before he dead, he kills Claudius using the same sword, and pours the poisoned drink right into Claudius's mouth. At the end of the movie, all of them die(wow...tragic enough).
I imagined that people will die, of course, it is predictable, but I did not manage to predict the actual outcomes- every important character sacrificed and died in at last. Sadness came in my heart of course, but that is usually the normal "pay" when you seek for revenge that concerns human life. Agree? If you are going to take someone's life for revenge, prepare to put your life as a bet as people will defend themselves by taking your life away as well. Maybe most of you will say, why don't he just let go? If he don't seek for revenge, all of this tragedy would not happen. But put yourself in his shoe(trying to be metaphorical...), someone kills your dad and marry your mum and the worst is he is your uncle! You will probably saying "what the @#$%"! See! Is somehow reasonable! What you expect Hamlet to do? Log on to the police(if there was any in that time) ? Put on a trial on THE KING? You think it will success? Nah... So, better revenge by your own way... I don't know, maybe you guys will think that I am too radical or pessimist or whatever the word used, but I am telling exactly what I think in my life. How far do you guys agree with me? Hmm?
