It would be facile to say it substitutes style for content; actually, it substitutes stylishness for style.
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Rotten
Stylistic but ultimately unsatisfying.
David Hunter, Hollywood Reporter

For all its promise, and for all the brittle beauty of Dariusz Wolski's cinematography, Romeo Is Bleeding eventually collapses under the weight of its violent affectations.
Janet Maslin, New York Times
Rotten
Romeo is most notable for being the first film of the year to cash in on post-Bobbitt fears of castrating (and worse) females.
Joe Brown, Washington Post
