Does this REALLY need an introduction? Weather you read the book, watch any reincarnation of movies or hell neither you should at least know this Shakespeareian classic or the gist of it. Lets break it down
Montague and Capulates: Hate each other.
Romeo (Leonard Whiting) is a Montague Juliet (Olivia Hussey) is a Capulet Life a b*tch ain't it? But does that stop them? You bet your a$$ it doesn't!
The famous Balcony scene O Romeo where art thou Romeo?, The sappy romance, The tragic death it's all in here and The Characters are portrayed perfectly just like in the book ( Thank you English Class for drilling it into our heads AND making it fun :3
Though it depends if you have a tolerance for the cheesy romance scenes or Shakespere just sickens you will determine if you will hate or love it.
That said even if your not much of a reader at least give this version a try. Truly a great adaptation on one of Shakesperes finest!
7/10
