This movie is the most pathetic movie I have ever seen.

Rating: 1/10 (4 June 1999)

This movie did not make sense. I am very familiar with the language of Shakespeare, but this movie confused even me. I guess I had a hard time hearing them speak Old English and seeing them in modern times. This movie was not just modern, it was stupid. And why did they make Mercutio into some awful transvestite? I also hated what they did to the balcony scene. Who was the genius who came up with a pool scene??? Again, very stupid! This movie is just a total waste of time. If you want to see a good adaptation of Romeo and Juliet, see the 1968, Zeffirelli version. This movie is an insult to this so called modern generation. This movie just sucks!!!
