Joe Bob Briggs United Press International It's not exactly "Romeo and Juliet," and it's not exactly "West Side Story." It's more like Cheech and Chong's version of "Breakin' 2 Is Electric Boogaloo," with a synthetic hip-hop soundtrack. Rated: 2/4 Oct 24, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I bought this movie at food4less and I gotta say: it is so bad, it's good! Bad acting, horrible accents, cheesy FX...even the love scenes sucked and seemed gratuitous. It came off like a cholo version of the 1997 Romeo & Juliet. It does get slow in the middle and the main characters are the least interesting in the movie, but the auxilary characters make up for that. Overall, it's worth a watch if yer into bad movies like I am. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member It is pretty much Romeo and Juliet in this day and age.. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
