!!!! what a tragedy !!!!!!!!!

First of all i have been waiting so long for this moment.The moment for Hamlet avenge his father. To kill the person who murdered his father.Hamlet has been waisting everybody time including mine wondering if he was ever going to do it.By the the he did it , too many innocent lives waisted by the murderer king. Now that i think about it Hamlet is as Evil as his uncle. How many people did hamlet kill tragically? surely as much as his uncle. It is sad the no one besides Horatio knows the truth about what really happened in that kingdom.Will people believe him when he tell them the true or even better who will be the new king?

I think the idea here is that Fortinbras will become the new King. This seems fitting, because Fortinbras is a soldier, just as Hamlet's father was.

Horatio is left to bear the burden of truth, but it seems fitting that the main characters have died by the end of the play. Only when they are all dead can you be sure the truth of their deceit will come out.

I don't think Hamlet is as evil as Claudius, because though both men killed a lot of people, their motives were different. Claudius killed for personal gain. King Hamlet had never given anybody cause to kill him, but Claudius did so anyway. Hamlet, on the other hand, kills Claudius out of revenge and he kills Laertes in a fight that would not have been deadly except for Laertes' deceit. Gertrude dies because of Claudius' deceit, and Ophelia dies because her world has been inverted by the cruelty of her father, brother, and Hamlet. Her death is not purely Hamlet's fault.
