I am in absolute love with this movie

Rating: 10/10 (22 October 2001)

This movie was by far the best this year, actually I thought it was the best movie since Romeo and Juliet in 1996. If you are fans of Romeo and Juliet you will looove this movie. I saw it four times and if it was still in the theatre and I had money I would see it again! I love the way Baz uses his camera as his paintbrush and shows us all the emotions and feeling the characters are experiencing with it. Ewan McGregor was amazing as the sweet and innocent Christian (Just look at his eyes!!! They are so genuine!). Many people are complaining about the simplicity of the plot. Well, quite honestly I didn't even notice. I was too astounded by the beauty and wonder of the film. I thought the plot was good actually. So what if it's been done before? Romeo and Juliet had been done a million times and Baz still found a way to make it brilliant and original. He did the same with this film. I don't see how anyone could dislike it.
