Led by dual mesmerizing performances from Sir Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson and rounded out by a solidly stocked ensemble, this King Lear is a highly watchable adaptation.

The performances hold it together; this play has always been focused on human suffering. Amazon's King Lear is by no means a definitive adaptation of what is arguably the Bard's finest tragedy, but it is a thrilling and entertaining one. Oct 1, 2018 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

While the language of Shakespeare can be a challenge for the modern viewer, this "King Lear" is so physical and the acting so expressive that one is never unsure of what is happening, or what devilment. Sep 28, 2018 | Full Review…

Just because nobody could or should feel this is a definitive King Lear detracts only somewhat from the undeniable joy that comes from even two hours of watching Anthony Hopkins gnash his teeth, wail and go gloriously mad. Sep 19, 2018 | Full Review…

Now 80 himself, the right age, Hopkins is at home in Lear's skin. Shouty, angry, cruel one moment; vulnerable, tender, loving the next - or at the same time. A mesmerising performance. May 29, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Flawed parenting, ingrate children and family estrangement will never not be relevant, and the modern-day dress gave it the feel of a production at ease with itself. May 29, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Any Lear with Hopkins is a good Lear, and while this version may be thinner than most, it's still got all the moments one would wish for. Jan 31, 2019 | Full Review…

The whole cast - top-notch - takes Anthony Hopkins' lead and chews the scenery down to gristle and bone. Oct 4, 2018 | Full Review…

What a story! Well done, Will. Fantastic imagery and art direction, but a little heavy and a tad wearing, the film's chock-a-block with interesting British actors. Oct 2, 2018 | Full Review…

I'm sad to say I'm torn on this Lear... That said, it is an absolute joy to watch Hopkins, Thompson, Menzies, Watson, and Christopher Eccleston chew into Shakespeare. Sep 28, 2018 | Full Review…

If somehow you've gone this long without ever being exposed to this dramatic masterwork, this is a thoroughly approachable introduction. Sep 26, 2018 | Rating: 9/10 | Full Review…
