Love at first sight strikes when young Tony spots Maria at a high school dance in 1957 New York City. Their burgeoning romance helps to fuel the fire between the warring Jets and Sharks -- two rival gangs vying for control of the streets.
This one is a little tough to review. It was very excellently made. Spielberg's camera work and using the background setting as a character in pretty much every shot was beyond top notch. The performances were all great. The singing and choreography were all great too. I just have never been that big of a fan of the story. I was hoping that maybe this would help me like it more but it didn't.
Again - I would still recommend people checking it out because it is an incredibly well done movie. Don't let my lack of enjoyment of the story be a downer.
