Romeo + Juliet for the Tarantino generation.

Rating: 10/10 (29 April 2006)

From the all out visual directing of Baz Lurhmann come the 2nd in his trilogy of red carpet movies, Romeo + Juliet. From spaghetti western style shot outs to romantic love scenes, this film has everything; and I mean everything.
Leonardo Di Caprio (Titanic) and Claire Danes (Termnator 3) star as the star crossed lovers in this epic of a film that will last for decades to come. And not only are we gifted with these two giants of the big screen, but this movie has an amazing supporting cast including John Leguizamo (Ice Age 1 & 2) and Harold Perrineau (TV's Lost).
This modern version of the tale of love, tragedy and death will have you glued to your seat. You may know what happens in the book, but this film twists the original story in to film that will be loved by everyone. A must see for all. If you haven't yet seen it, what are you waiting for.
