Crazy is the only epithet I can put before the title of this film. I think this version is more suitable for those who are familiar with the original. Looking at the characters in the play wearing all kinds of trendy clothes, in the environment of all kinds of modern cities, the poetic lines of shakespeare came out of my mouth, not to mention how funny! However, the interpretation of the emotional part of this version may be because of adding Modern elements, using the expression method of film rather than theatrical performance, I feel that the performance is more delicate and real. Especially Romeo's classic joke under Juliet's window, the previous version I always felt - maybe a dramatic exaggeration - was always a little unspeakable unnatural, every time it only made me notice shakespeare how well the lines are written, not the story and the performance itself. In this version, when the two protagonists interpret this life-and-death love, I really felt the emotion of that kind of love. At the same time, the film seems to make Romeo's bisexual tendencies more apparent.
But the finale was a bit rushed. This film must have something to be affirmed, it depends on what the audience cares about it.

Leonardo's first collaboration with Baz Luhmann. The modern adaptation of Shakespeare's masterpiece is extremely bold and stunning. The young people's costumes are exaggerated and gorgeous, and they speak the old dialogue like a minstrel. The camera lens can even reflect a strong sense of fate. Leonardo's appearance is at its peak, but his acting skills cannot be ignored.
