    By removing elements of magic and operatic excess from the story, the brothers Scott focus on what is, underneath, a story as tragic (and less contrived) as the one cited in the ads, "Romeo and Juliet."

    It is a noble aim, and Reynolds drenches his movie in earthy, muddy tones.

    It was awesome. James Franco was hot. My heart was at the bottom of my stomach when I left the movie because I was so sad. Also, I believe that the younger crowd will enjoy this more. That's why the user ratings for the movie is usually higher than the critic's ratings.… Expand
