  Grand Theft Hamlet 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  The greatest pandemic film ever made…. for the first half or so. When they begin forcing a narrative arc to raise the stakes, it begins to feel contrived and lackluster. Grand Theft Hamlet shines when it embraces the absurdity of its premise. I enjoyed it a lot. It’s inventive, fun, and tackles the loneliness of the pandemic in a not cringe way. All-around an exciting piece of new media art.

It’s why The Darjeeling Limited is still one of my favorite films. (I’m due for a rewatch soon.)
