    Awesome modern twist on a classic story!
    I loved the star studded cast. They did a wonderful job portraying their parts. The mixture between modern day dialog with humor (some mild sexual innuendo), the music which is modern but played on the old time instruments, and the old time settings and props with the timeless story of Romeo and Juliet was great! I would recommend this movie to anyone especially those fond of the classic Romeo and Juliet. Its a fresh take on the story with a somewhat different ending. Good for the younger generation to learn parts of the story (not accurate like the real story but similar) as well as a different perspective for the older folks.

    Lame
    Lame and boring film. Dialogues are pure trash, the level of humor is very low. Cast is good but they cannot save this script. 3* only for costumes and beautiful scenary. There are many more successful films/tv series which managed to combine historical plot with modern sense of humour. Don't waste your time. It is a pity that director failed with obviously good budget, talented actors and initial interesting plot idea.

    I dropped watching somewhere around first thirty minutes with the last ten minutes on higher speed. P. S. The idea to call courier Steve in Italy is not funny at all, middle school kind of comedy(

    Better than Romeo & Juliet
    Rosaline is much better than Romeo and Juliet. It's much better. Haha.

    It makes fun of Romeo and Juliet because the plot of Romero and Juliet is just dumb. Makes no sense - just ludicrous.

    Rosaline is much smarter in story than Romeo and Juliet.

    Like most people, I've read Romeo and Juliet and other Shakespeare novels. When I first read Romeo and Juliet in high school I thought it was dumb. I hated Shakespeare.

    I wish I had seen "Rosaline" after reading Romeo and Juliet back in high school.

    So while I don't have any versions of Romeo and Juliet in my Kodi movie collection, I will keep Rosaline in my Kodi. There. 600 words. Jeez.

    I enjoyed watching it
    Well i always thought that romeo and juliet's story didn't age well (since she was too young and they barely knew eachother etc). And this adaptation pointed out the problematic aspects of the story in a hillarious way. The story everyone knows, but in a new perspective. Its always risky to take a classic and make a modern adaptation of it without ruining the original story. But i thought this movie succeed at it.

    Rosaline's character was relatable therefore loveable. And that part of the storyline was executed well enough that i enjoyed it as well. Overall it was a good enough movie. Solid 7.5/10.
