    I think this is the one we watched freshman year in high school. Not too bad, and I think Juliet got naked if it is the one I am thinking of. Damn Hairy though.

    I remember watching this in english class, and making fun of the costume designers choice of codpiece. I definitely prefer the 90s updated version.

    Watched this in high school English class. I didn't know until college that there were lots and lots of nude scenes in this sucker.

    This movie was a complete and total mess. It hemmhorages bad '90s style like a drunken Madonna after a long rave. Really, the only good thing is that it can be destroyed easily.

    A classic tale of struggle and frustrated hope. The story of the star-crossed lovers, I think, has perennial appeal.

    I'm not really into romance movies but this movie is a recreation of shakespheres romeo and juliet, though it lacks a sword fight towards the end this movie recreates shakespears theature onto film the best ive seen.

    I was forced into this in 8th grade. Guess how I felt about it? About the same way I do now. The Baz Luhrman adaptation is WAY better (starring Leo and Clare Danes).
