I have found 12 summaries for you to look at, click the link below. I have included a short extract to give you a taste of what the reviews have to offer and they’re FREE..!!!
Montague's description of Romeo's melancholy fits exactly contemporary ideas of lovesickness. Thus far, Shakespeare is following tradition. His original contribution will come in contrasting Romeo's mooning over Rosaline with the fresh, spontaneous passion which Juliet will inspire in him. More………

Romeo and Juliet was not made for its plot, and it's about a lot more than two teenagers. Shakespeare's plots are all pretty average, and many of them were borrowed from other sources, but it doesn't matter because his works are about the poetry and the language within the plot.

I like the criticism of the play which says that Romeo & Juliet is a comedy in the first 4 acts and a tragedy in the 5th.
Is it tragedy or comedy. You decide.

i like how under comments you put "Criticize it". I thought it was sad but just one of those times in life you realise, hey, life ain't always fair! I think it was pretty dumb how it worked out in the end when they could have really walked off into a happy life. Guess that's how life is, now knowing some things can change our lives a whole lot... Well, you did say "criticize it"... I hated the story!

Just goes to show...that pride overrides our consciousness sometimes in making decisions that would otherwise be in the best interest of our loved ones or ourselves. (The parental dispute- governmental, too.)
It kills me when I see humble celebrities w/huge expensive crosses dangling from their thick expensive chains. - symbolism of our self centered identity
Communication is a key element to a relationship that will thrive. You cannot continue a relationship in death. ( Had Romeo been given a clue that Juliet was going to sleep not dead...he would not have killed himself)
That's it for now....

That the love between the two of them was so genuine that they thought that they couldn't live without each other.

It's cute. One's a Montague and the other is the rival family Capulet, and two people end up dead. The end.
Oh, yeah, Horatio is cool too.
