The costumes and settings were amazing! The modification of the play - no thumb biting scene, but there was a brawl all the same - and the end - Juliet awakes before Romeo dies, are relatively small and nothing to complain about; the real complaint is from the diminution of the Queen Mab speech. All of the performances were excellent from all of the non-title characters, and that is where it all goes awry: the man playing Romeo has a photogenic countenance, and Juliet is by contrast downright homely (and too old for the part). Neither of them act well, primarily because of their poor voice control. It ruins the whole film.
