Movie review

        Two kids meeting for the first time, falling in love, getting married behind their parents back and then killing their self over one another is crazy. I honestly thought that this movie was made very well. The actors the director picked for the spot were perfect. It felt like they were meant for those spots. It's fun to watch but in reality it's teenage kids who kill themselves over each other just after a couple of weeks of knowing each other. However the movie was different from the book. There was modern music, guns instead of knifes, missing scenes and etc. It was still an entertaining movie to watch, which modern life images with the same old historical language. I dislike the ending on how they had Juliet clearly moving and Romeo didn't even notice and still killed himself.
        They had some very entertaining scenes. They did the beginning of the movie different than the beginning of the book.There was a disagreement between two groups. The two households had guns instead of swords and where shooting at eachother in a gas station then in the matter of seconds more people started going into a frenzy. There was so much going but I could still see someone getting shot in the head. It's funny because in the movie it was like no one cared that guy died. No one talked about him. In the book no one even died in that scene. I liked how they had the Chief as the prince it fit well. I was entertained, the characters also looked like regular teens so I felt a little more connected with them. Tibet and Mercutio scene was also very well staged. After Mercurio died it got very dark and it began to rain and thunderstorm. This showed Romeos emotion at the time since he was crying when he killed tybalt. It was smart and creative, That's a great way to set a mood in the movie. It's also made me feel for Romeo.
          The way Romeo and Juliet's met was perfect. At a party with costumes first staring at fishes and then their eyes locked. It seems to me that's a way to show to the audience one thing they had in common, they both like to look at fishes. The cast was diverse, with different vibes like the play they wanted to party and have fun. I feel like in the book they were more strict.
         What really kept me engaged was the modern music and staging like how once they were on a beach. It was so unexpected and caught me off guard. The reason why I was so caught of gaurd was because there would be that old language that they spoke in the book. Then started playing music I understand, the songs might've can out couple years ago. You would think if they wanna keep it natural and fresh they would use music during that time. But they just didn't care, and it made the movie unique.
  Overall the the movie was good. They did a nice job putting it together. If I was the director of the movie I would change the whole thing up. I would change the language. I know that it's Shakespeare's history and all. but if you think about it, it's time for it to change. You think kids are gonna grow up knowing what Shakespeare was saying. I don't even know what he's saying and I'm 17. That's why I was into the movie but I felt like I couldn't relate to them that much just only the staging and their age but half of the time I had no clues what they were talking about.
