Were his Actions Appropriate?

Hamlet's (in the film) were very much appropriate. He shows a depressed manner in the opening of the film as one would expect of an individual e=who had just lost his father. Throughout the rest of the movie, Hamlet is energetic in his 'madness' (again as expected, he's having fun with it) and often adopts an angry, frustrated manner during many of of his moments of private contemplation (soliloquies) as he plots and plans, sometimes even shouting out his words to the audience. This is exactly appropriate behaviour for an angry young man seeking revenge for his father but frustrated by the obstacles thrown in his path by his own self because of his subconscious fear to carry out the deed and challenge his uncle. The Hamlet of the film also shows the appropriate behaviour towards his mother (perhaps except for the evident incestuous undertones which may or may not be implied in the play). He often talks to her with a derisive tone of voice. When reading the play Hamlet's loathing of his mother for marrying Claudius so shortly after the death of her husband is very apparent. As such it is expected that he would talk to her in the manner seen in the film, angry and emotional. Thus, it can be confidently be concluded that in the movie, the character of Hamlet performs no actions and acts in no manner which falls outside what could be expected of him by reading the play.
