Romeo & Juliet Ratings & Reviews

The film lacked the heat and romance needed to believe in their love, def felt more like two tweens enamoured by the idea of love over being enamored by each other, which is a point of the original play. Steinfield played Juliet very well, so I'm puzzled at the critics that singled out her performance as worse than Romeo's/ than the rest of the cast. Nothing too out of the ordinary. DiCaprio's Romeo and Juliet is better for your time but this one is a good second choice.
Punch Drunk Critics
Roxana Hadadi
This Romeo and Juliet is set on its disappointing course, and it can't be deterred. What a bummer.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
I know this thing's been kicking almost half a millennium, but is it too much to ask for a little invention?
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
"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.
Slate
Dana Stevens
There are reasons to see this Romeo and Juliet-it's just a shame that Romeo and Juliet are not chief among them.
The Hollywood Reporter
Todd McCarthy
The grown-ups outshine the kids in this handsome, romantically anemic rendering of Shakespeare's perennial.
CinemaBlend
Katey Rich
Every generation gets their own Romeo and Juliet, but kids these days really didn't deserve this dull, cheapo attempt.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
What can you say about a Romeo and Juliet that lacks heat, romance, eroticism, or lyricism? Mercifully, not much.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
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.

Turning what should be a hanky-required tragedy into a headache-inducing travesty is no small feat.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
Pretty on the outside but lacking something more than a menagerie of lush brunette heads.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
All it needs to succeed is leads with a lot of chemistry and the ability to adapt to the rhythms of iambic pentameter and the glorious language. It fails on all three.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
A sufficiently entertaining, adamantly old-fashioned adaptation that follows the play's general outline without ever rising to the passionate intensity of its star-cross'd crazy kids.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
If there is one novelty in director Carlo Carlei's take on the world's best-known ill-fated lovers, it's that the words aren't entirely Shakespeare's. It's a fresh approach, indeed, but maybe not the wisest.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Viewers who go into "Romeo and Juliet" cold may be forgiven for coming away thinking Shakespeare was a really lousy writer.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
Shakespeare's play evokes the poetry of undying love, but this "Romeo and Juliet" is prosaic.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
Verona, we have a problem. And thy name is Juliet.
Slant Magazine
R. Kurt Osenlund
Not even when the doomed Juliet reaches for Romeo's dagger do you feel a single vicarious pain in your gut.
Newsday
John Anderson
The lovers provide no palpable passion. And without that, there is very much woe. But not much point.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
While there is a pleasantness about this faithful Shakespearean reboot, there also is some woeful miscasting and a lukewarm feeling about the straightforward production.
