Hamlet is mad at Gertrude for happily marrying so soon and to he's Uncle of all people. And as for Claudius, to take the place of Hamlet's father was a villain of a decision. Most of the madness is shown after the Ghost appears and tells what has happened in the past. Revenge for what has happened---Father's brother poisoned me while sleeping in the orchard. Remember me. Act 1, scene 5.
