Hamnet - Avis

Jessie Buckley is brilliant and heartbreaking in Hamnet.

...hits like an emotional wrecking ball—devastating as it clears its path.

This sublime adaptation of Hamnet couldn’t have been done any better.

...through the tears, you'll realise you've just experienced one of the best movies of the year.

What makes Chloé Zhao’s films so special is the way they convey nature’s transcendent quality.

A quiet character piece at last becomes deafening.

...if you forget to bring tissues with you to see her mourning her “Hamnet,” that’s on you.

Jessie Buckley is superb in this masterly study of loss.

Jessie Buckley, already the Best Actress Oscar frontrunner, is remarkable as William Shakespeare’s wife Agnes in Chloé Zhao’s speculative grief drama.

Jessie Buckley could make a stone cry.

Those tears you will likely find on your face are of catharsis, of cinematic healing.

...sob your eyes out to this tragic Shakespeare origin story.

...this masterful period drama is one of 2025's most deeply affecting films.

Welcome back, Chloe Zhao. We missed you.
