Perfect for its venue

I don't usually take time to watch TV movies with commercials, but this was on at a good time, featured actors I like, and had a catchy title. Never mind that this story has been made many times over (Romeo & Juliet, if you didn't already know)...familiarity with the plot in this case adds to its charm, even though one knows in advance that there will be few, if any, surprises.In this version, competing restaurants/recipes provide fuel for the families' feud, adding a new twist to an old tale. Although I knew half way through how the feud would resolve from the pizza perspective (one knows from the outset how the romance will resolve), I must admit without giving anything away that I had not foretold the catalyst, despite several clues.One thing that not all R&J adaptations have is a romantic subplot in addition to the main one; but the one here was just as touching, if not more so, due perhaps to its unexpectedness, than the main one. I'm a sucker for a warm-hearted love story, especially when presented in the context of strong, close-knit families; and these two love stories together had me making my way to the kitchen for tissues more than once toward the end.I rate this movie based on its context in addition to traditional factors; thus, for a TV movie, it scores well in my book.

Upbeat Little Rom Com

This one was good, one of those family feud/star-crossed lovers stories influenced by "Romeo and Juliet", minus the melodrama and tragedy. The Montebellos and Prestalanis replace the Montagues and Capulets and Verona is now New Jersey rather than Italy and the war they're fighting is a pizza one! But the son in one family loving the daughter in the other, while her family has other matrimonial plans for her remains the same.

Add to it a secret love, (involving "Juliet's" sister), frustrated career ambitions, a misunderstanding, a near tragedy, an often-exasperated parish priest, and a few other ingredients and you get a fun pizza of a movie, not to be taken seriously, but leaving you wishing that real life could work out like this.

BTW: there's another movie based on this one, "Little Italy". PLEASE, don't waste your time on that loser and stick to the original!
