Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
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.

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

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

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

rotten:
"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.
