Still enjoy it many years on

Rating: 8/10 (30 November 2008)

Firstly let me say I'm 23 and I first saw this one it first came out in the cinemas when I was 13 - and promptly loved it, bought the soundtrack and a year or two ago bought the movie. The two couples have good chemistry and play their characters with feeling, the music was up to date, up beat and completely fitting for when it came out and still fun to listen to now. Also around that time and still today I am Shakespeare buff and am always happy to sit down and take a look and a new adaptation.
I'm not going to say that the fashion has dated and some of the ideals have too because they have but honestly in comparison to the other teen films coming out right now this is well written and well acted by people who have gone on to do amazing things and who actually played characters who were both likable and relatable. As I said before I'm 23 and saw this for the first time when I was 13 and even ten years on I can still sit down and enjoy nearly everything about this movie and yes I still have the soundtrack....somewhere.
