Great remake of the most classic lovestory ever told.

Rating: 9/10 (22 September 2004)

When Baz Luhrman decided to replace the guns for swords and still have the cast speaking just as Shakespeare did, I fell in love with this story all over again. The acting was great, the locations were excellent. The photography in the movie is excellent. There's only one thing I didn't like and that is Romeo and Juliet should have had more on screen time together, just to show more depth to their love. I love this movie though! Its one of the only movies I know ALL the lines to. My favorite part is when Romeo sees Juliet for the first time through the fishtank. I can feel their excitement . This captures the love at first sight theme right on point. Who wouldn't fall in love with Leonardo DiCaprio though? I give this movie two thumbs up!
