ROMEO & JULIET GET MARRIED (M offensive language and sexual references)
Shakespeare’s classic love story is retold in the crazed world of passionate Brazilian soccer fans. Romeo, an obsessed fan of the Corinthians football team, falls for Juliet, the lovely daughter of the arch rival Palmeiras fan club president. Romeo fakes a love for Palmeiras to impress his future father-in-law, triggering a series of frantic and hilarious twists that threaten the best laid wedding plans of the star crossed lovers.
“Bruno Barreto's charming adaptation of the Bard's most accessible tragedy might have captured a healthy slice of the same audiences that embraced Bend It Like Beckham, Shakespeare in Love and My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Romeo and Juliet Get Married is just that irresistible.” Gary Dretzka of Movie City News
