    this film takes the bounds of the unwatchable and stretches them to near-mythic proportions. how a director could start with a play of such stature and end up with such a poorly acted, unintelligibly edited piece of filth is beyond my comprehension. the only thing this flick has going for it is the supporting cast. Pete Postlethwaite is excellent, as always, but putting him on screen with leo's befuddled romeo is a true crime. some modernizations are better left unmade. on the whole, i'd rather sit in the treatment chair in "A Clockwork Orange" and be forced to watch "West Side Story" for three days straight than be forced to endure a second watching of of this beast.

    This modern version of Romeo and Juliet was actually the most foolish one I have ever seen. The director depended on choosing popular actors and forgot about everything else. I think that his fatal mistake was choosing the setting of the movie to be in modern times. If he had decided that the script would go unchanged and retain the same events as the original play, then he might as well have preserved the setting. Yet he didn't and at the end everything was messed up. It is quite apparent that the problems that faced Romeo and Juliet cease to exist in modern times. First of all Romeo and Juliet come from extremely rich families, when they realized they were in love, couldn't just go to another Italian city or even buy two two hundred dollars plane tickets to Spain and forget about their families. The film just doesn't present anything contra that solution. Maybe in the older days, some five hundred years ago, girls in Europe couldn't walk out easily out of their family's house, but I presume that his is not the case nowadays. Even if we made the hypothesis that Romeo and Juliet weren't "that smart", or if Juliet's family was the only traditional family in Europe and the events went on in the same sequence, when Romeo was banished couldn't she just go visit him like his church friend did and tell him about her plan?With all those up to date communication devices was the DHL the only choice to report such vital news? Also this banishment in a desert thing seems so stupid. Eur
