Despite Dench's dynamic performance, unless you really love Shakespeare, at 146 minutes this stylized interpretation will seem interminably long and dry.

Audience Reviews for Macbeth

Last semester, I had an assignment to watch this production of Macbeth directed by Trevor Nunn and review it. That review has since been lost due to a lost thumb drive, but I have never forgotten what I called Dame Judy Dench's Lady Macbeth: The Puligny-Montrachet of Lady Macbeths, referring to the Chardonnay that every other Chardonnay in the world is trying to (and should) be. Her Lady Macbeth captures the guilt, restlessness, chaos and the aftermath of Duncan's murder, and immortalizes them in the look on Lady Macbeth's face and the inhuman moan of agony she exhales during her hand-washing scene. It is a sound that dishonors our ears and never seems to end.

This Macbeth, while stylized and can be seen as dated to many, honors William Shakespeare and his Scottish play, which has been accused of being cursed for so many decades. Though it does drag a little, you're watching masters at their best performing the work of a master at his best. Macbeth is about ambition, guilt, and fate, and it's about a good man who corrupts himself.

Incredible production of Macbeth. Talking heads. No scenery. Really gripping as a result.
