I think Hamlets hesistantion to kill Claudius is thought through. In the story it says the reason why he was so hesitant to kill Claudious when we first saw him was because he was engaged in prayer, and to he believe if he dies while repenting he would go to heaven. Since Hamlet is upset by the fact that his dad was killed offguard he wants to do the same to Claudius. Hamlets wants to catch Claudius offguard just like his father's death to make things even. I think that is a clever and still quite weird and unique.He did notify his guards that he would be acting weird. So I do agree with his hesistation because he wants to do it on the right time.
In all honesty I don't think he really thought about it as carefully as he should have. I think that if he had thought of it carefully he would have thought to maybe not do it at all. With Hamlets circumstances I guess he did think carefully as to killing him offguard. It would be better if he stuck to his plan rather than just getting it over with because his types of beliefs. I think Cladius is guilty for killing Hamlet's father, especially offguard for going straight after his wife and throne. And the devilish nature of how he killed King Hamlet was bad too. If I were in Hamlets position I would be full of rage and vengeful. So I think Hamlets idea is okay in a way just because it is well thought through.
