Movie Reviews of Romeo & Juliet
Movie Review: A favorite movie
Summary: 4 Stars
While I love the movie, this is the first DVD I have bought from Amazon that won't play on my multizone DVD (region O) player. But it will play on the laptop, so not a complete loss. Movie Review: Romeo and Juliet (1968)
Summary: 5 Stars
Far and above the best rendering of this particular Shakespeare play I have ever seen. It retains the flavor of the play as it was written, while placing it in an "off-stage" setting. I would recommend this for anyone who prefers a traditional performance of Shakespeare insread of the modernized, "fluff" to appeal to modern audiences.Movie Review: The definitive Romeo & Juliet!
Summary: 5 Stars
Italian director Franco Zeffirelli did an outstanding job of bringing Shakespeare's romantic tale to life. It is THE definitive version of Romeo & Juliet, in my opinion. The fact that the actors were so close to the age of the star crossed lovers adds realism and freshness to the story.
Shakespeare's words flow so naturally that you forget that it is a classic play and just get lost in the story. The cinematography is beautifully done and the wonderful customes are a treat for the eyes!
You will enjoy this movie ... again, and again ... I highly recommend it!

Summary: 5 Stars
As a teacher of Romeo and Juliet, this version stays pretty close to the original. There are some parts that are left out, but most students do not notice those. They are more likely to notice the "skin scenes" of Romeo and Juliet's wedding night than the comic relief that has been excluded. While the Luhrmann version always hits closer to home, this one is good ancillary material for more reluctant readers, or those struggling to find a theme in the pages of something supposed to be watched.
