I loved this movie. It was cool how the director kept the origional story and theme but made it more understandable for people now a days. I got the whole point of the movie and i highly recomend watching it!

that's a very cool name for a movie. I also like that it's a spin, because it always becomes more interesting that way, at least for me.  I love the names Shakespear came up with and will probably name my next dog (or child?) Odeon.

This kind of reminds me of the Romeo+Juliet movie we had to watch a while ago-- Shakespeare language in modern times-- I hated that movie.
