How can people like this movie? It's and over rayed piece of dog poopy. Big thumbs down. |
I was submitted to that once and hated the ridiculous musical versions of songs like Smells like Teen Spirit. As you can imagine, it's not a film I've revisited recently!
I actually quite liked Baz Luhrmann's
Australia and, though I've only seen it once (and that was years ago), thought
Romeo + Juliet worked quite well - it's a film I'd like to see again.
I'm open to different interpretations of Shakespeare's plays and, on the stage, I've seen Macbeth where the soldiers wear army fatigues and carry machine guns and a weird version of Romeo and Juliet where the the titular couple were in wheelchairs!
