Editorial Reviews

Edited to a tight core, this powerful tale is swift, sharp, and to the deadly point. As Montague and Capulet meet on the field of battle and the field of love, romance must be cast aside and tragedy, only tragedy, can win the day.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Sleeper Easily Beats the R&J Competition, May 18, 2001
This review is from: Romeo & Juliet [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Who would have thought that a "no name" cast and director could produce the best film version of Shakespeare's classic love story? With no Franco Zeffirelli, Baz Luhrman (or George Cukor) at the helm, and no Olivia Hussey, Leonard Whiting, Claire Danes, Leonardo diCaprio (or Norma Shearer and Leslie Howard) in the cast, this version is straightforward, swift and devastating in its impact. Directed by Alan Horrox, and featuring Geraldine Somerville and Jonathan Firth as the star-cross'd lovers, this film is revelatory in its simplicity, pays attention to the words as the principal vehicle of the tragedy, and relies on acting rather than starpower. Just terrific!

3.0 out of 5 stars JULIET IS 13, May 10, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Romeo & Juliet [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Although this production was wonderfully done, the people who play Romeo and Juliet are too old for the part. According to the text in act 1 scene 3, Juliett will be fourteen in "a forghtnight and odd days." Romeo, is also a teenager. The fact that they are so young hightens the tradigity because they are little more than children who kill themselves over what is in essence an adolecent crush. Seriously, How many relationships between a 13 and 15 year old last forever.

4.0 out of 5 stars Unknown R & J, August 6, 2005
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Romeo & Juliet [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Shakespeare can be pretty hard to understand, but this version was easy to watch, and I even understood it! I have read the play and seen the other movie versions and I like this one because it covers all the important stuff. The actors playing Romeo and Juliet seem too old for their parts, yet play them very well.
