    Witty and dynamic,a really alternative and refreshing look to the classic myth,Luhrmann provides a feast of love and affection,a fair/carefree spectacle when you won't notice.

    to lkehisal and to whoever else decided that this movie was inappropriate:
    I'm 14. I never thought that i would be able to get through a shakespearean movie, but this opened doors for me. i know shakespeare is amazing, but some of his work is very, sadly, inacsesable to a younger generation. this version makes that generation able to understand the magic of shakepeare. you are fully welcome to have your own opinion but dont make it so that others are turned off of a chance to discover the most amazing playwright this world has or will ever see.

    This movie is BEYOND amazing. Claire Danes is brilliant and Leonardo Dicaprio is too! I just love it SO much. My favourite scene is the scene in the swimming pool, with the proposal and you know, declaration of undying LOVE that sort of thing. But anyway, this scene makes me ACHE! it makes me wish I was in love, makes me long for it......it was soo good!

    Superb. A modern, enthralling, exciting, romantic, emotional, action-packed version that does justice to the orignal play.
    Excellent soundtrack, perfect script as it's true to the original language and though modern, keeps aspects of the original play threaded into the settings, situations and props.

    William Shakespeare is rolling in his grave. This has got to be the most awful versions of one of the best plays in history. It was ghetto, street, inappriate, ridiculous, and insulting. All involved in making this disgrace should be sent to court and sued for taking peoples' time and money unfairly.
