He is a figure who represent people who are avarice about power and money. They can did anything for money or power. During the story, he killed King Hamlet and try to kill young Hamlet. He is very exact defination of bad people.

I think he is a hypocrite because he tends to show his love toward Hamlet while trying to kill him. He didn't even confess his sin and apologized to Hamlet. Because of Claudius's these personality, in my personal note, Hamlet got more angered.

I think the Claudius is the worst guy in the story because he killed Hamlet's father and he also tried to kill Hamlet. So he is the worst character and he is the one who started to make this tragedy. If he could have hold his greediness, this might have become better story.

Yeah i agree with you, he is just one low and disgusting person who is corrupted by the power. Killing his own brother for the throne is just inexplicably worst thing to do he should be at each of Dante's levels of hell without exception. But what a story without a bad guy so i think he fits in the story as there always should a guy to blame for everything.

I hate Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. They are Hamlet's old friend but they betrayed him.

I hate Gertrude and Claudius both. The beginning of this sad story and Hamlet got crazy and killed people is because of those two. When I read Hamlet, I feel so sorry for Hamlet. But they say Hamlet got crazy by himself, and that was not their faults. WTH! I think it is very selfish.

I do not like "Claudius and Gertrude".They are Hamlet's elders so they should make a model to Hamlet but they did not.I agree with Woori that I think Hamlet got mad because of them.Claudius killed Hamlet's father because he wants to take crown from Old Hamlet by his corruption;Hamlet's mother got married with her brother-in-law after her husband died in few weeks by her desire.In the end,they did not apologise to Hamlet and did not tell Hamlet the truth.

I agree that Claudius is the worst character in Hamlet. He killed King Hamlet to steal the power and status, and took Gertrude. After he realized that Hamlet knows about the truth, he tried to kill Hamlet by using Laertes. Any deed of Claudius cannot be justified. He does not have any legitimate excuse for such crimes unlike Hamlet or Ophelia.

well, all the previous guesses about Claudius's character can all be dismissed since Claudius did confess his crime and felt guilt. This confirms that he did commit murder, but!!! even after that, he still believes that it's ok to not do anything since he values his material stuffs so much….. greed -_-..

For one, claudius is a bad guy for killing his own brother and trying to take all Hamlet's rights. Second, gertrude also deserves most of the blame because she is irresponsible and has failed as a mother. Ophelia also is a bad character because if she truly loved hamlet, she shouldve been with him all the time no matter what happens. Hamlets old friends also betrayed him. I think hamlet was the biggest victim of the play

Claudius is definitely the main antagonist of the story. He killed his own brother in order to get the kingdom and the queen. Not only that, he even plotted and idea to kill and get rid of Hamlet once he reaches England. And the worst is yet to come

yeah, Claudius is the worst character in Hamlet, and Hamlet is the second one. Anyway Claudius is 'the bad one' in the story, he technically caused all the problems

Claudius is definitely the guy to blame everything on. He is the complete bad guy in this story. He doesn't care that he's sleeping with his own brother's wife, killed his own brother, and plotting to kill his brother's only son. I find nothing that can even give him the slightest chance that he might be able to go to heaven.

I too hate Claudius and Gertrude because Claudius killed Hamlet's father and acted like as if he was innocent and Gertrude cheated on her dead husband by quickly marrying Claudius after her husband's death instead of cherishing her dedicated love for him. I also hate Hamlet because if he really loved Ophelia, he done too far on pretending to hate her and say that he never loved her.
