Visually stunning

Rating: 6/10 (11 March 2003)

When I first started to watch this movie I had my opinions, which luckily were proved to be wrong. This movie has the plot of Romeo and Juliet (young man falls in love with the rival family's daughter).
This movie was very stylish, the visuals were great and the actors were also pretty good(especially the one who played the priest I can't remember his name).
Luhrmann succeeded in creating a world almost like our own but with some touch of surreality which was strenghtened by the shakespearian dialogue. In only few points did the dialogue bother me and that was when there wasn't great deal to say.
In the end, the movie was really entertaining with a touch of magic in it(especially in the water tank sequence). This movie deserves 5 or 6 out of Ten. 6/10
