Overall I still loved it. The music and dancing were amazing, and definitely felt all the feels during this film. I just love West Side Story so so much. Some things when comparing to the original (and probably wouldn't even notice certain things had there not been an original and would go on loving it all). we never really got to see much of the friendship between Riff and Tony - they were kinda always fighting.The actor who played Riff though was amazing! Much more believable a a deliquent as well as all the others... costumes and attitudes made them so much more believable as gang members where as in the original looked like pretty boys in rumbles. I didn'tlike the actorthat playes Tony as much as the original. Singing was good, I just didn't feel as much passion. Wouldn't notice this if there was no original though. Also the timing of I'm so Pretty was off in this version. Kinda random after the killing. But overall loved it. Original is always best though but this is great remake.
