Romeo and Juliet

CriticsCritics: 82
AudienceAudience: 7.4

Two teenagers fall in love despite a bitter feud between their families in Verona. As they try to protect their relationship and build a life together, family conflict, youthful passion, and long-standing hostility push them toward tragedy.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy passionate period romances, Shakespearean drama, and richly atmospheric productions; Not for you if you prefer naturalistic dialogue, restrained emotion, or lighter love stories.
