A modernized version of the Shakespeare classic about young, star-crossed lovers of two feuding families.
Tensions are high and soon a shootout occurs between the rival gangs.
Things go from bad to worse as the young lovers realize their future together is uncertain at best and by a twist of bad luck and timing, they meet an untimely end. That's hard to say. For scenes of contemporary violence and some sensuality. This is a rather interesting, modern take on the Shakespeare classic. The first third of the movie is shot in a frenetic MTV style, obviously to hold the interest of that generation that's being coveted as the target audience.
