Nonureva Really Surprised!

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Marcus V. B. Siqueira Well, i got into this film because I saw a scene on a YouTube video and it really looked like my type of film, those medieval film with some battle and thrill. At the start I thought I was into the right film, but soon I found out something was wrong. Despite having a great actor on the cast, the film is boring an poetry is everywhere, everytime. The story is confusing and there is no battle scene or such. A shame. If you want some good mediavel movies, there a plenty there, but this one is sure one to never be seen by that kind of public. I could not watch it to the end, I skipped a lot of parts and found it was never meant to be seen by me.

travis_landry23 What is there to say about Justin Kurzel's MACBETH? I have adored this film for years ever since I first saw it in the cinema.The performances, the visual use of red throughout the story, the music. There isn't a film more beautiful than this one.Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard are true forces to be reckoned with. Easily the best performance I've seen from both actors.This film has inspired me to go and watch every single adaptation and incarnation of MACBETH I can get my hands on. As well as read the text, which makes you appreciate the films more. This film has inspired me to have a desire to make my own version of Macbeth. There are so many ways to tell this story, as evidence by all of the different artistic mediums that have been used over the years to do just that.This is a beautiful story, a beautiful film, and one I truly hope will go down with the classics.If anybody that ever worked on this film ever reads this. Please give yourself a pat on the back, well done.10/10 - Masterpiece

kirbycat2 Macbeth is a great play. So many great scenes were changed or omitted. Where are the supernatural events? Why did Macbeth set so many fires? Why were the prophecies not followed? Don't watch this to avoid reading the play. You will fail any test you take over Macbeth. Very little of the original play is portrayed correctly.

Michael Ledo MacBeth kills the king, becomes king and can't handle the guilt. Blood imagery, darkness, and a ghost if I recall my High School British Literature class of 1972.The Shakespearean masterpiece has been made into a modern action film, making me think this was one of the first cabin-in-the -woods slashers. I loved the acting, the cinematography (even when the sun was glaring on the lens) and the scenery. Marion Cotillard ending soliloquy had me lighting Bics and tossing Frisbees. She was that good. Fassbender did a heck of a job nailing a king crazed with guilt. The three "witches" from the play appear to be "fates" in the film which worked out nicely. Yes, much has been cut out.I was glued to the screen as I did not want to miss a word, because at times it was hard to understand what they were saying between accents and hithers. At times I felt I was watching art. I would be surprised if this was not nominated a number of Golden Globes or Oscars.Guide: No nudity. Clothed above the waist sex scene. IMDB claims there is absolutely no swearing...except for that one "damn" word. Now I did hear something that sounded like "skull f--- me thunder." I don't think that is what MacBeth said to his wife, but it just sounded that way. Could someone toss me a bone on that one?
