With Brendon Gleeson, Kathryn Hunter, Corey Hawkins.

"Every beat of "The Tragedy Of Macbeth" a cinematic flourish, a tale told by a master full of sound and monochrome fury." (NPR)
"Joel Coen's The Tragedy of Macbeth is both satisfying and limited, spot-on and slightly off, for myriad reasons. But you can't fault it for lacking a genuine sense of interpretation." (Rolling Stone Magazine)
"I could see 'The Tragedy of Macbeth' becoming a favorite Shakespearean film adaptation, for those who rank such things. Watching it, I felt as if I were part of the audience seeing the play for the first time, from the pit." (TIME Magazine)
