Peter Bradshaw, Guardian, 5/5.
This film succeeds, not because it solves the mystery, but because it deepens it still further. It is contrived and speculative, but ingenious and impassioned at the same time.

Philip De Semlyen, Time Out, 5/5.
Zhao doesn’t just tell you about the healing power of art, she shows you. Prepare your tear ducts accordingly.
Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph, 5/5.
What Hamnet leaves you with isn’t sadness, but joy at the human capacity to reckon with death’s implacability through art, or love, or just the basic act of carrying-on in its defiance. It blows you back on to the street on a gust of pure exhilaration.
John Nugent, Empire Magazine, 4/5.
With strong performances in service to a clear, confident vision from Chloé Zhao, this is a wrenching contemplation of the “undiscovered country” of death and grief.
Clarisse Loughrey, Independent, 4/5.
It’s a deeply contemplative film, its candlelit shadows provided by cinematographer Łukasz Żal, as if painted by one of the Dutch masters. The camera focuses on spaces as opposed to people, moving as slowly as curtains drawn across a stage.
