When Romeo killed himself because he loved Juliet so much. It was a very sad ending but still very beautiful. They killed themself because they loved eachother so much, that is very sweet.
I think the plot in the movie is forbidden love. The plot make sense because forbidden love is also the situation in many parts of the world today. When Shakespeare wrote this story this was the main part of his story, and he would probably not believe that the same problem also would be present in the 21st Century.
I would recommend this movie to the age 13 years old and upward. I think the movie is very hard to understand and they use many different and hard words. If you really like love stories i will recommend this movie to you, it is a beautiful love story.
I think the movie was good. It is not the best movie i have seen but it was a beautiful story. But the ending irritated me, because the ending was sad. I am a fan of happy endings and because of that i didn't like the ending in this movie. But the movie was good, and it is definitely a movie that everyone should see at least once in their
Romeo is very dramatic and obsessed with love. In the beginning he is obsessed with being in love, it doesn't seem like he loves Rosaline, he just wants to be in love with someone. But by the end of the book I think he might actually love Juliet.
Romeo is a lustful and emotional 16-year-old that acts mainly on impulse and how he feels in the moment rather than what would be more sensible. In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Romeo’s irresponsible and dramatic identity causes him to act without thought and on impulse.
Romeo is shown to be poetic and romantic. He and his friends are on their way to the Capulet party when his friends encourage him to dance, but he refuses. He is still sad about Rosaline, the woman he loves. She doesn’t love him back as she has plans to become a nun. Romeo says, “Is love really
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, however, I did have some small issues with the film. The movie was entertaining with a fun plot line and quality
William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet, tells the story of the tragic love between Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet. The play has been reinterpreted throughout time and Baz Luhrmann’s film version, William Shakespeare’s Romeo + Juliet, uses a modern setting to tell the tale. Luhrmann’s cinematic understanding reinforces the key themes of love, fate and hate as he explores Shakespeare’s famous play.
Lastly, the biggest tragedy of all, Romeo gets word from Balthasar that Juliet is dead and because Friar John wasn’t able to get Friar Laurence’s letter to Romeo explaining the plan and what was going to happen, Romeo, completely naïve, goes to the apothecary to get a poison to commit suicide to be with Juliet on the other side. He rides to Verona from Mantua to be beside Juliet when he kills himself and not knowing that Friar Laurence was coming, he says his last words and drinks the poison. When Juliet wakes and sees Romeo lying on the ground dead she is so dumbfounded and speechless that she was unable to leave, but because the watch was coming the Friar had to leave. So when Juliet was alone she took Romeo’s dagger and out of pure character she stabs herself and she dies.
This 2006 Romantic Comedy is worth recommending. The story of this movie is unique, which compelled those watching. The story is easy to follow and keeps the viewer interested in finishing the whole film. If you are a person that likes to be entertained it is a movie for
In conclusion I feel that the film was a great addition to the story and helped a great amount to the understanding of what was happening. Both the film and the story had their similarities but they both came to the same conclusion point. All in all I think that the the film and the story summarized the plot very strongly and that they were very detailed in describing all of the conflict between the different
A part of his character is shown when he hears the news that Juliet is dead and he leaves to go to Juliet straight away without thinking about it. “No matter. Get thee going and hire those horses. I’ll be with thee straight.” This quote shows that Romeo wants to be with Juliet no matter what and he will hurry to see her. “et me have a dram of poison, such soon-speeding gear.” This quote shows that Romeo is asking for poison to kill himself so he can be with Juliet. Romeo’s character is very impulsive.
In Romeo and Juliet we learn how Shakespeare uses vivid language to build character and depth in their roles. Shakespeare was a poet, playwright and an actor with a great love for language. Shakespeare was of great importance when it came down to the moulding and developing of the English language. Shakespeare had such an immense love for language that he created neologisms that we use in everyday life. Some of these neologisms he created include words such as puke, lonely, bedroom, democracy etc. in the play he developed numerous characters that played incredibly believable roles. An example of how Shakespeare made his characters believable was Tybalt, who spoke only forty lines in the entire play. Though he
My overall reaction to the movie was that it was a very well done movie and very
The narrator in both works of musical and literature is something to look at in the sense that they are so in love by the woman of their interest that they will do anything to be with that girl. The song “Michelle” is written and performed by Sir Paul McCartney. The song is sung by a man who is in love with a girl who is most likely French and is devastated that she cannot understand him but will do whatever he can to express his feelings and desires towards her. Another piece of literature that could relate is the play Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare. As in the scene from Romeo and Juliet, Romeo, when he first meets, Juliet he expresses his feelings as someone who has not known what love and beauty was until that moment. After considering the prompt, men do not feel as strong of emotions as women do when something happens in their life but when it comes to love they have to hold onto that because that spark of interest is the main reason why that man is able to feel those emotions.
This is a good family movie that can show the viewer’s how some people prey on one another. This movie reminded me of the times my brother and I didn’t get along. It shows how different families are and how they treat one another. Sadly this movie also shows how family members can be so cold blooded. This movie duplicates real life situations where innocent People get hurt, family loyalty gets divided and couples end up in divorce.
We would highly recommend this movie to others as it was very educational, but also very enjoyable at the same time. We all had a good experience and learned a lot about women’s rights issues of the past that many women can still
The play is so well known since it shows the deepest example of passion. The proclamation of love for the first time between Juliet and Romeo adds a great deal of passion to the play, as it helps develop their journey of love. In the balcony scene, Juliet expresses to Romeo, “My bounty is as boundless as the sea,/My love as deep. The more I give to thee,/ The more I have, for both are infinite” (Shakespeare 2. 2. 133-135). Juliet reveals to Romeo that the more love she gives him, the more love she has, and that her love for him is limitless. Additionally, the passion that Romeo and Juliet share is violent and disobedient. As Friar Laurence tells Romeo, “These violent delights have violent ends/And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,/Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey/Is loathsome in his own deliciousness/And in the taste confounds the appetite./Therefore love moderately. Long love doth so./Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow” (2.6. 9-15). The Friar tries to notify Romeo that his and Juliet's intense passion may end violently, as they go behind their parents backs to get married. As a result, this passion lead to the lovers death. Little did Romeo and Juliet know that something so bad could come out of their intense passion. Romeo says,
