Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring

NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

leonis-11045 I wanted to disappear at the sight of this movie. The sound of the string was like a bee slowly stinging at my brain but I still would have died quicker than Macbeth did after being stabbed so many times. Don't watch. If you do be prepared to lose custody of your kids and have a false accusation against you. Dreadful

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

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?

gavinooch21 So disappointing. I loved it all the way to the end, until the filmmakers just had to go a completely different way with their ending. IT REALLY MAKES ME MAD WHEN THEY DO THAT! WHY? WHY DID THEY DO IT?! It's stupid! People are gonna go into this film, especially the ones that know the story of Macbeth are going to be disappointed at the end of the film! Stupid!
