As we see the movies they become more and more modern. The last one we watched which was with David Tennant is the most modern one of them. I find weird that such a language is used at that time. I do not like the idea of modernizing such a great piece by shakespeare. The one I really appreciated was the one with Mel Gibson which gives a type of authenticity to Hamlet since it is set around the medieval times. However the actors in the avid tenant one are much more realistic than any other one. The mother is not overly flirty and does not start a sort of makeout session with her son. Obviously each movie is different including the characters behaviors.
