Summary: Romeo and Juliet, a truly love story
Comment: Romeo and Juliet are the two most known lovers created by William Shakespeare. Their love story is one to be cried for, and it really shows the true meaning of what love is. Many people have claimed and agreed it is the most sad but romantic play ever written, and it really is.
They're a pair of star crossed lovers, who fall in love at first site. Their hopless love is denied from the very beginning: their families have an awful hatred towards each other which has been everlasting. They go through many tests for them to prove they really love each other: Romeo's best friend dying; Romeo's exile after murdering Mercutio, Juliet's cousin; and finally Romeo learning his dear lover's "death".
Although it has a tragic ending, many people say this story is actually happy, for they both die at the same time, and their love is kept together, for eternity.

Summary: Shakespeare was too much a genius to write soap operas
Comment: Unlike many reviewers who disliked this play, I had no trouble with the Old English, and quickly began to appreciate it. Once you understand the way he mixes up verbs and nouns, and once you know how to read it, (reading it in sentences rather than line by line helps immensely), you begin to like the language. Since the English language wasn't exactly finalized, Shakespeare had the liberty and power to create words and play with the language as he liked.
But only two stars for this amazing piece of creative language because it has the stupidest plot I have ever read. Shakespeare, if you were alive now I would tell you how disappointed I am. He was too much of a genius to write soap operas. People call Romeo and Juliet a true love story ... but really people, does anyone fall in love that fast? The day after they meet, (yes, meet ... for the first time ever), they get married! I nearly died laughing at how stupid and ridiculously lame this play was, (Act I he doesn't even know Juliet ... and he loves another girl!). Shakespeare, this is the lamest play I have ever heard of.

Summary: Boring
Comment: What a boring love story - I wasn't impressed. Bizarre plot, long tedious read.
