@Hyman74Roth Mel Gibson was good, but no version captured Hamlet better than Kenneth did. He's had the most experience, so he knew exactly what he was doing. I'd say watch the Gibson film anyway, because it's interesting to see what the actors/directors can bring to the screen. There's also The Royal Shakespeare Company's version with David Tennant that was satisfactory (still can't beat Branagh), and I want to see Jude Law's Broadway portrayal.
