Two Houses in Fair Verona where our story takes place...

Rating: 9/10 (30 December 2002)

ROMEO AND JULIET
STARRING: LEONARDO DICAPRIO, CLAIRE DANES
Two Teenagers. Lovers at first sight. Husband and wife soon after first kiss. Two deaths when a plague is put on both their houses. Demanding parents, constant fighting friends and a love that could never be is what makes Romeo and Juliet one of the most heartbreaking love stories and in Baz Luhrman's modern day version Leonardo DiCaprio, as Romeo, and Claire Danes, as Juliet, bring a new generation to understand the movie in better quality.
Romeo and Juliet is an epic story with an epic version added on. This movie consists of great humor, a wonderful balcony scene for Romeo and Juliet and a heartbreaking scene of death. This movie is beautiful and emotional in only a way Baz Luhrman can pull it off.
I give this movie **** out of ***** stars.
