West Side Story is a direct take of Romeo and Juliet.
Baz Luhrmann did a modern spin on Romeo and Juliet with dance/music and Leo DeCaprio in the lead role.
Gnomeo and Juliet was a cartoon spin on same. Red and blue gnomes rivals living on the other side of the fence fought each other and two crazy kids found true love despite it.

Throne of Blood is Macbeth and despite the changes, it is often considered one of the all-time best film adaptations of Shakespeare.
