What is the most critical moment in the play Hamlet?
Some would suggest that it is at the point where he finds Claudius praying and has a chance to kill him. Hamlet does not take the danger Claudius poses to him as seriously as he should. This would have been an excellent opportunity to deal with Claudius and stave off his malice, but Hamlet wants a perfect opportunity and thus allows that malice to set events in motion. Others might look at the killing of Polonius as a critical moment. Before he does this he is just a harmless eccentric but now he is a dangerous criminal. Polonius's death speeds up Claudius's plans to get rid of Hamlet, drives Ophelia crazy and brings Laertes on a revenging rampage.

Hamlet tells the audience that he does not want to give Claudius the opportunity to absolve himself of all his sins before he dies. He says that to kill Claudius then would mean that Claudius would die a guiltless death, which is exactly what Hamlet did not want. He wanted to avenge his father by killing Claudius in the same way in which Old Hamlet was killed: unprepared and unforgiven for all of his outstanding sins. This is what Hamlet tells the audience, but it is also probably an example of Hamlet's inability to take action. Hamlet is presented with a perfect opportunity to avenge his father, and he comes up with an excuse as to why it is not the right time. The question is whether or not Hamlet is ready to take his life, not whether or not Claudius is going to have a sinless death.
