he is too smart for that.
his character flaw is his indecisiveness meaning that he thinks too much but can't decide and that prevents action

1. He just wants to go back to school in Wittenberg.
2.His father wanted revenge, but Hamlet was struggling to be true to his own values, not his father's.
3 If he kills Claudius, he'll inherit the throne. He doesn't want that.
4 Thou shalt not kill. Hamlet didn't want to be another sinner, like his father and his uncle.
5 To attempt to kill a king is suicidal, which could doom Hamlet to hell.
By the way, like Hamlet, Elizabeth I was indecisive. Her indecisiveness kept England out of wars and layed the foundation for English greatness.

3. he's a scholar, not a warrior
4. he is so wrapped up in the intellectual reasons behind revenge and its implications, that he is crippled to inaction

read the soliloquy again "to be or not to be"...that's where he thinks out loud about whether to kill his uncle/stepfather or not. your answer is in there.
