Gnomeo and Juliet (2D Blu-ray + 3D Blu-ray+ DVD w/Digital Copy) (2011)

"This lively little film, a comic take on Shakespeare's tragedy, is really entertaining.  Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
"A welcome dose of honest silliness at a time when most family-oriented toons settle for smart-alecky.  Justin Chang, Variety
"This gently amusing, genuinely sweet animated film makes you smile from start to finish?  Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

Editor's Note The animated tale GNOMEO & JULIET knowingly follows the quintessential star-crossed lovers tragedy Romeo and Juliet, with the unexpected twist of making the characters garden gnomes that can move when human beings aren't watching. Though Gnomeo (James McAvoy) and Juliet (Emily Blunt) belong to feuding garden-gnome families, they meet and fall in love. But the clans' shared animosity is exacerbated when Tybalt (Jason Statham) dies in part because of actions taken by Gnomeo to defend a friend whom Tybalt was attacking. After getting some sage advice from a statue of William Shakespeare (Patrick Stewart), Gnomeo attempts to set things right, and win the heart of the lawn ornament he loves. The supporting cast includes the vocal talents of Michael Caine, Hulk Hogan, and Maggie Smith.
