macbeth

i was really looking forward to this movie as i have heard so much about it and am really glad to say that i actually enjoyed it. i have not watched many of shakespeare's work but i must say that this is one brilliant tragedy play. there were many gruesome scenes but i have to admit that it really added colour to the movie as we audience dwelt into Macbeth's actions as he greedily sought power and fame without any remorse or guilt. the movie might not have been portrayed exactly as the play would but i would say that it was really good and entertaining all the same while increasing my knowledge on literature as well as shakespeare's work.
i enjoyed the movie and i am really glad that i could identify the different literary devices from the play while watching the movie.

I agree with you when you said that this is one of interesting plays that we have watched. Yeah, it is hard actually to find such an action play by Shakespeare. He did brings colours in the play making it more strong in real. Maybe some of us think it is quite violence, but that is what actually bring up the play. Without those scene and action, the play would totally dull and boring towards conveying message to audience. I did agree that this play is interesting play.
