So far the play Romeo and Juliet is,
I think pretty great. Although, there
are a few things that I don’t really like.
One thing that I don’t like about this play is that the words are from
olden English and are hard for me to comprehend. All of the words that I don’t know become overwhelming
and I start to lose focus. My brain
shuts down and intern I don’t know what is going on in the play. It would be better if there was a more up to
date version that had a different choice of words. Words that would not take away from the main
ideas of the text but would allow me to stay focused and interested in the
text. Also, I really didn’t understand
the beginning of the story and some parts can become overwhelming such as the
Queen Mab section. Although, with the
help of my classmates they are able to explain it to me and I am now able to
understand difficult parts in the play.
One last flaw I have with the play
Romeo and Juliet is that it isn’t realistic.
When Romeo and Juliet first meet they think they have already fallen in
love. It is way too sudden for many
reasons. One reason being is that Romeo
has always already thought he has found true love. After seeing Juliet one time he suddenly
switches his feelings and now believes his love is for Juliet. Romeo and Juliet have just met for the first
time and have only said about three words to each other. They have no idea of each other’s
personalities or views for the future.
There is no way that they have fallen in love this fast. The scene, I believe went to fast and was so
unreal.
Other than the unreal love and
misunderstanding of complicated words I have really enjoyed this play. I also really like how we watch the first
made movie and the most recent movie made.
I really like getting a good visual of what is going on. After reading it and watching it two times I think
it is a lot easier to understand what is going on. This play has a really intriguing plot and I can’t
wait to find out what happens at the end.
