  • I dislike Brannagh's version.

    I say this because he doesn't seem in control. He's all over the place.

Without boring anyone with the details I will say that I have some background in psychological studies, and can say that his performance reminded me very much of the symptoms associated with Bordeline Personality Disorder...it's uncanny.
