| Score | The musical score consistently hits the right emotional notes, enhancing the tragedy and romantic themes throughout. | |
| Screenplay | Opinions on the screenplay are divided: some praise its poignant themes of self-sacrifice and resilience, while others criticize the romantic dialogue as secondary or fairy-tale-like. | |
