Hamlet 2

The film constructs its humor from the clash between grandiose theatrical ambition and drab school life. It relies on absurdity and self-deprecation to explore the nature of a creatively unhinged passion that recognizes no limits.

What lingers after the credits is the infectious, ridiculous energy of its musical numbers and a surprisingly genuine heart. It’s a celebration of creative failure that somehow feels like a triumph. — MovieFinder Editorial
