I've seen at least some of this once before, close to its release, and it remains weird, that is creative but not necessarily enjoyable.  This time I tuned out before Juliet actually showed up, and I didn't even see that much of Romeo in the first quarter hour.  Director Baz Luhrmann helped adapt Shakespeare.

An extra layer of ick in the dialogue, although at least the visuals weren't quite gross enough in the first quarter hour to cross over into F-Town.  Director Alan J. Pakula helped adapt Scott Turow's novel.
