This Romeo and Juliet is set on its disappointing course, and it can't be deterred. What a bummer.

The grown-ups outshine the kids in this handsome, romantically anemic rendering of Shakespeare's perennial.

What can you say about a Romeo and Juliet that lacks heat, romance, eroticism, or lyricism? Mercifully, not much.

"Romeo and Juliet" is too soapy and improbable to count among the Bard's very best plays, but it surely has some of his best dialogue, and messing it up this much is close to inexcusable.

Juliet should be a girl, but the story's trajectory of self-sacrifice requires her to become a woman. Steinfeld gets the girl part exactly right, but she botches the transformation.

Pretty but, ultimately, flat.

Been a while since Shakespeare's star-crossed smoochers got some big-screen love. Going on the so-so outcome here, no one would have minded waiting a little longer.

A stuffy, old-fashioned production shot on distractingly spotless sets. It lumbers along in search of a reason to exist.

While the setting and the costumes are in keeping with the tale, you can't help but feel as if you are watching a grandiose stage production.
March 25, 2014
A sharply adapted version of the classic love story, stunningly visualised and tightly directed.

There are reasons to see this Romeo and Juliet-it's just a shame that Romeo and Juliet are not chief among them.

Turning what should be a hanky-required tragedy into a headache-inducing travesty is no small feat.
