Gnomeo and Juliet
Basic run down of the movie is probably an easy guess. Its Romeo and Juliet, made funny, featured by garden gnomes. So the Gnomes are the garden statues of neighboring gardens of Montague and Capulet. For unknown reasons the Gnome's have been war ing for all time. Easy plot right?
Anyways I wasn't thrilled and often found myself bored. I will fully admit that part of this probably comes from the fact that I really really dislike the story of Romeo and Juliet. First there is all the hype and 15 year old girls gush over it, without really understanding the plot. Yes prejudice is wrong, don't fight for no reason and don't blindly hate people. But NO people this is not a romantic story, it's about horny teens. People never remember that the whole reason Romeo was at the party where he met Juliet was because his friends took him to get over is greatest love.. you know whats her name that no one remembers because they don't pay attention (her name is Rosaline). It bugs me.
Back to our Gnomes.. It had some funny parts but It probably would have made a better short then actual movie. So watch the trailer, have a laugh and then go watch a good movie.
