Default Romeo & Juliet

So in my Senior language class, we covered Romeo and Juliet. I thought the literature was constructed very well, especially for its time. If you never read the play you might have a complete different view on what happens. I believed the play to be very coincidental. If one little detail would've been missed, the whole thing could've never happened at all.

What are your views on this play?

I hate this play, we read the whole thing at the end of the year my freshman year, and it was the reason I failed the class. I didn't understand it one bit. luckly I didn't have to read it in summer school

Yeah, it's a famous story, but it's not really that great. I enjoyed it, but I thought the scenes could be a lot more dramatic.

I really don't think much of this. I remember one time, my mom made me go to my neighbours (which was a girl) and watch the Romeo + Juliet movie. In my English class, we're currently reading Henry V.
