This is the best modern adaptation of Shakespeare I've ever seen. I haven't seen them all, obviously, but right now this is my new sweetheart. Every detail is in place, the actors are great, the visuals are awesome - I cannot belive it was shot in only 25 days...
My mom happened to have bohemian rhapsody on when I pulled this up and it was about half way though and the timing was perfect to the point where I ended up muting this and watching how it matched up. Literally perfect
@Mentulasso Because it is Macbeth. Shakepeare didnt write plays to be famous or artsy he did it to make money little did he know that his work would become the standards for plays, shows, and movies.
just think every time someone said mcbeth they all had to run out of the room and spin 3 times and spit and say the worst profanity that comes to mind
Looks pretty badass! Sam was badass! The songs are badass! I need to know what the song is called!! The first part and the last part! If anybody knows, please let me know! thank you! :)
This was actually the first Sam Worthington movie I saw him in, I never knew that he'd go on to be a Terminator and a Marine in an alien body. Good work Worthington, you got a great success story.
Interesting trivia, both Christian Bale and Sam Worthington stared in Terminator Salvation and they both played in modern Shakespearean movies, Bale in Midsummer Night's Dream and Worthington in this.
BTW, I enjoyed this, a little intense but very well done.
It Doesn't Ruin Shakespeare...Remember Westside Story? This Takes Shakespeare, Applies It To A Wider Audience, Embelishes Details... All Together Awesome, There's No Way to Ruin The Book.
does anyone know of a really good film version of macbeth? the 1971 one is supposed to be good but does anyone know of a more recent one thats quite true to the actual play? :) x
i remember renting this movie with my friend, of course i had forgotten about Macbeth, when we started watching the movie we were like wtf are they saying literally then i started to remember of macbeth xD
I think you either hate ir or love it. I saw it just recently and it was a great movie. Ummm, I have also read the original MacBeth and liked it, just btw... Sure this movie was... different but very very cool. :-)
think this looks quite cheap. setting shakespeare in modern times is not an offense for me, since shakespeare set his plays on HIS time (which for him it was the modern times). It worked with romeo + juliet, which I think they were trying to do here. unfortunately, it looks like it doesnt work AT ALL!
This doesn't look too bad, I mean, Wright has certainly hammered home the vengeance/blood/murder/guts/human nature side of things really well, from the trailer it seems this way. Lady MacBeth also looks good. But there's a lot of guns, too much guns & blowing things up. Sam Worthington doesn't do a bad job, from watching this. Probably 1 of the betetr adaptations.
this looks like the trashiest interpretation. it's all like "calling all hipsters, shakespeare is COOOOOL! this movie is down with the stuff teens like!"
and i'm just like "shut the fuck up, this is shit."
what i find interesting about shakespear's plays, if you were to take them from what they are, they are exactly this, about gangs, and all that, its pretty cool when you think about it
Common misconception. Shakespeare wrote in pantameter, also. Every line in his plays is ACTUAL poetry. No one back in the 1590's actually spoke that way. Shakespeare contrived a new speech pattern, and because of this, he also invented hundreds of new words (such as "can't" and "don't").

LOL, I saw Worthington in the underrated Horror film Rogue before he was in Terminator 4 & AVATAR.
I also saw Hart's War & Great Raid but had no idea he was in those since he was a background character in those two war films.
He is a good actor though
