Much of the problem is that the script is as poor as the animation is impressive. The juvenile humor and immaturity run rampant, as do several annoyingly hyperactive supporting characters, resulting in a tug-of-war between eye rolling and grimacing.

The film was released on February 11 , The film starts with an intro stating that this is simply another retelling of the classic Shakespeare tale, but it is very different. In the city of Stratford, there are two huge houses on Verona Drive that are adjacent to one another. The house on the left is owned by Mr. On the mailboxes, there are 2 signs: Ms. Montague's with 2B on the blue side, and Mr. Capulet's Not 2B on the red side.
When the squabbling owners drive off, almost crashing in the process, the weather vanes of each house signal to the gnomes in the gardens that they can come out and play. One of the Blue gnomes flings a snail to the other side, making it plummet into a snoozing Red 's mouth.
Lord Redbrick , leader of the Reds, goes over and peeks in the peephole and sees Lady Bluebury , leader of the Blues, and they exchange some barbs. Lady Bluebury's son, Gnomeo , and his friend, Benny , pull out a lawnmower, and it's obvious they are up to something. Lady Bluebury calls Gnomeo over. Not wanting to get in trouble, he runs over and tries to distract her, but she knows he's up to something and winks at him, telling him to "go out there and show them that we Blues are better than any Red.
On the other side, Lord Redbrick's daughter Juliet climbs a tree to look at the roof of a greenhouse across the street. There is a special flower, a cupid's arrow orchid, growing at the top, and she thinks that if she can get it, it will make their garden beautiful and will give the Red gnomes an edge over the Blues.
Then, Lord Redbrick calls for her, and she is startled and almost falls but lands relatively gracefully compared to the flowerpot that fell before her and was smashed. He freaks out and admonishes her, but Juliet is annoyed at the insinuation that she's delicate and helpless, and Nanette agrees, saying that Juliet is not delicate. Juliet figures she'll prove that she's not delicate by retrieving the flower. What Lady Bluebury was referring to earlier is revealed, as we see Gnomeo and Tybalt of the Red side going against each other in a race using lawnmowers in the alley beside the houses.
The rules are don't cheat, but Tybalt does so anyway, throwing a pipe at Gnomeo's lawnmower, causing it to run into the street and break. After Tybalt reaches the finish line, Fawn praises him before Benny accuses Tybalt of cheating. Tybalt just laughs and kicks Benny before his mower is pushed back into the red garden by a collective of other Reds.
The blue gnomes that were watching are furious, and Gnomeo launches a plan to sneak over to the Red side to sabotage Tybalt's mower. At night, Gnomeo and Benny prepare to sneak in. Gnomeo has covered his blue hat in mud and his face in dirt streaks and is dressed stealthily, and Benny goes dressed as a sunflower with a can of rattling spray paint strapped to his back. Meanwhile, Juliet is planning to sneak out to get the flower. Nanette helps her find an outfit that will disguise her.
After an attempt involving a florescent pink sock with green polka dots, they settle for a black sock that covers her entirely, with eye and armholes. Juliet also takes the fishing rod from a gnome that was shown fishing at the beginning of the film and uses it to unlatch the gate. All the gnomes are sleeping except for some of the Red side, including Fawn and the little red gnomes sitting around a table playing a game. Gnomeo and Benny make it through, even though Benny's spray can make rattling noises every time he moves.
Gnomeo reaches the garage and sees the red lawnmower, but when he turns around, Benny has sneaked over to Tybalt's wishing well well and is spraying graffiti on it. Gnomeo watches as he loses his grip on the bottle, and it hits a laser and alerts the Reds. Gnomeo and Benny make a run for it. Gnomeo uses a hose to shoot Benny to the other side, but now he is stuck. Gnomeo is about to fight Tybalt on top of the boat in the red garden but is foiled by Mr.
Capulet, who opens the curtains to look out into the garden. Gnomeo manages to get hold of a pair of Mr. Capulet's underpants and parachutes away with them. Gnomeo lands in a patch of grass and is not sure where he is.
He sees a figure dart across the brick wall and is entranced, running alongside to follow her. Juliet, who is very agile, reaches the top of the greenhouse and is about to take the flower, when Gnomeo, who followed on the other side, reaches for it, too.
They don't recognize each other because they're both in disguise. She apologizes, but she states that the flower is hers when she realizes that he isn't a gnome from the greenhouse garden. They start playing catch and grab with the flower, playfully swinging from the pipes and panes. They eventually land on a small log in the middle of a pond. They both hold the flower and are about to pull in for a kiss when the log collapses and they fall into the water.
Underwater, their disguises are washed away, and they see that they are enemies. Juliet freaks out and runs away, and Gnomeo tries to follow her and is almost caught by Tybalt patrolling.
Juliet, still nervous, covers for Gnomeo and says that she didn't see anyone, making Gnomeo gain a certain trust in her. In this scene, Gnomeo and Juliet learn each other's names thanks to Tybalt mentioning them. She figures out that Juliet has met a boy based on the way Juliet is acting. Juliet reveals that he's a Blue, and Nanette instantly reacts dramatically to the doomed nature of their relationship. Later that night, Gnomeo sneaks back to the Red side while they are still on high alert from the intrusion, and finds Juliet.
She tries to get him to leave, but he wants to talk. Gnomeo accidentally steps on a switch that activates Juliet's tower, beaming out lights and blaring music.
Lord Redbrick runs over to tell her that there was no music allowed in the grotto after ten o'clock, and Gnomeo barely manages to escape with Nanette's help. After steering her father away, Juliet checks through the top of the fence to see if Gnomeo is okay. His head pops up on the other side, and he gives her the flower that she wanted. She takes it, and they are about to kiss, but their heads get stuck. They agree to meet the next day at the old Laurence place at The following morning, Miss Montague wakes to see the ruined lawnmower, and Mr.
Capulet sees the graffiti on the well. Each instantly blames the other. Montague stomps inside, saying she's going to buy the best lawnmower money can buy, which makes Benny raise his hand and grin when he hears it. He spies on Miss Montague while she visits a lawnmower purchasing site on her computer.
A popup for the Terrafirminator V. When Mr. Capulet disappears, Tybalt talks to Fawn and the little red gnomes, and they plan to take revenge by destroying the wisteria plant growing out of a toilet in the Blues' garden the Blues' pride and joy, a flower that Lady Bluebury and Gnomeo's deceased father had raised from a seedling. It is time for Juliet and Gnomeo to get ready for their little date, jazzing themselves up in ways only a gnome can.
About to step out, Juliet gets sidestepped by her father introducing her to Paris , a fast-talking nerdish gnome who is fascinating by botany. She distracts him with Nanette who finds him adorable and slips off. Gnomeo and Juliet meet up and are excited to see each other, but unused to their freedom.
They find a very old lawnmower that Gnomeo can't startup, so they try to find some gas in an old shed. They pick the lock with a long stick and open the shed, realizing that someone else is in there. They are scared, but it is just a pink flamingo lawn ornament who introduces himself as Featherstone and says that the stick Gnomeo picked up is his other leg.
He has been locked in there for 20 years and is very excited to be outside again and to have people to talk to. They lie in the grass and talk until they have to go. They arrange to meet at the same time the next day. Gnomeo returns home, smitten. His pet, Shroom , run up to him, and Gnomeo realizes something is wrong.
He goes to the main garden to see that the wisteria is gone. All the gnomes are sad and Lady Bluebury is crying, as Gnomeo's father had planted the wisteria before he died. She asked Gnomeo where he was, and Gnomeo says he was nowhere and begins to feel immensely guilty. Gnomeo immediately thinks of Juliet.
Meanwhile, Paris is trying to serenade Juliet, but she isn't interested. Nanette, however, develops a crush on Paris. Juliet looks off to the side and sees the flat stone hippo ornament twitching, with Gnomeo's hat beneath it.
Excited, she runs down. Gnomeo, who is trying to carry out the attack, props the hippo's mouth up and leaps over to aim his weed-killer blaster at the Reds' prized tulips when suddenly Juliet is in his crosshairs.
She's scared, then realizes what he is aiming at and storms off. He tries to call after her but has no time and jumps back down the hippo's mouth.
With her mouth free, the hippo yells out, and the Reds are alerted. At the bottom, Benny asks what happened, and Gnomeo claims that the gun was jammed. After Gnomeo leaves, Benny shoots the gun and sees that it is fine.
Tybalt sees this through the hole in the wall and suggests to his cronies that they go out into the alley for a "smashing time. The next morning, when Gnomeo and Juliet meet up, they argue.
Featherstone doesn't like them fighting and tries to interject, but they both lash out at him. Hurt, he apologizes and says that he knows he talks a lot, but he just likes having such great friends for once.

With a myriad of exemplary feature animation films emerging in the last few years, the bar was set high for Gnomeo and Juliet. But instead, the cheesy pun for a title was backed up by an equally cheesy flick without much merit. Along the same lines of Toy Story , these gnomes, along with the other garden fixtures, come alive as soon as their owners turn their backs. The Bard himself even makes an awkward and out-of-place cameo as a statue to discuss with Gnomeo whether or not the movie should stay true to the play. Of course, Gnomeo thinks it should not.

‘Gnomeo & Juliet' scrapes by as fun for young viewers
Eligible info. Directed by Kelly Asbury and showcasing both classic and original songs by Elton John, the film features the voices of James McAvoy and Emily Blunt as Gnomeo and Juliet, who have as many obstacles to overcome as their quasi namesakes when they are caught up in a feud between neighbors. But with a plastic pink flamingo and thrilling lawnmower races in the mix, can this young couple find lasting happiness? In my opinion, it was a mediocre piece. It shouldn't have focused on the lousy war between just two, TWO Flipping tiny gardens that look like they could stick them in a mailbox or about a stupid lawn mower that they just happen to buy from their clueless owner so they can unrealistically wreck fences and add more insult to injury.

Rarely has there been a brainstorm conference so harebrained as the one from which this Anglo-American animated feature must have sprung. You can imagine the assignment: to update a Shakespeare play, but using tiny mythical creatures. Hmmm… The Smurfant of Venice? How about Elf Night? Since the gnomes are really just miniature statues, they can get by with very few expressions; that means major savings in time and artistic output.

Gnomeo & Juliet (film)
The tribes live in neighbouring gardens belonging to the Montague and Capulet families. They instantly fall in love. Things get tricky when they realise that their love is doomed, but Juliet is a headstrong girl, determined to break away from her overprotective father. Gnomeo and Juliet feel that their love is stronger than family rivalry and continue their romance with almost disastrous consequences.
Gnomeo and Juliet is the kind of pun a kid might come up with after surviving 7th grade English class, spending 5 minutes playing with the idea before moving on to something more complex. But for some reason an entire team of filmmakers, animators, financiers and Elton John himself thought it was a good enough idea to turn into a feature film, and Disney, just as mysteriously, saw fit to bring the result into theaters. Gnomeo and Juliet isn't exactly the worst movie to ever get a theatrical release, but it is one of the most mystifying, combining Shakespeare references, slapstick and Elton John's back catalog in a way nobody ever expected or asked for. It's one thing to make a film about gnomes, the mythical woodland creatures who populate childhood fairy tales. It's another entirely to make it about garden gnomes, ceramic figurines placed in chintzy backyards alongside plastic flamingos and wishing wells both of them making key appearances here. This particular crew of gnomes are divided into the reds and the blues, residents of adjacent backyards in a duplex and, as you know from the original story of tragic lovers, mortal enemies.
Bill Desowitz reports back from Toronto and London with an exclusive report of the first animated feature from Elton John's Rocket Pictures. The ceramic garden gnomes and the lush neighboring red and blue Stratford gardens, to be sure, required Starz to raise its game beyond the previous 9. But not before the design team in London did its essential work, headed by director Kelly Asbury and producer Baker Bloodworth. We went to Stratford on a number of occasions and were inspired by houses and the yards. They weren't too big but were big for gnomes. You never wanted to lose sight of where they are relative to their world. We always wanted to be heightened reality.
For this is no epic tale of woe, this romance of Juliet and her Gnomeo. A lot. Lady Blueberry the voice of Maggie Smith keeps her blue gnomes on her side of the garden fence. But Gnomeo James McAvoy would rather be racing lawnmowers and chasing girls.
Here so history!
