Stardust

I watched this movie on a long-haul flight last week, and even on a tiny screen I thought it was amazing. It's a well-balanced mix of fantasy, comedy and action. One of the most likable movies I've seen for a long time.

Saw that one yesterday. Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert de Niro were both great!

It was definately a lot of fun. When it comes out on DVD there's a space for it on my shelf right next to The Princess Bride.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I agree it had a similar feel to "The Princess Bride," perhaps even a little less hokey. And I must admit to loving watching Robert DeNiro play against type.

I was one of the few people disappointed, largely because I've loved and internalized the illustrated book. I have a strong internal vision of what Stardust should look like, and sections of the movie really screwed with that. The difference was jarring!

Love the movie, way better than Harry Potter and my second favorite movie of this year... so far.

I'm currious what your favorite was because this was my favorite fill in several years.

Once was better. But Stardust was quite good.

saw it today, was pretty good though claire danes seemed a tad wooden. 9 year old son was transfixed* for the whole 2 hours

nice way that magic works, to stay in D20 theme, and good scorching rays, animate dead and heat metal

I quite liked it but was rooting for Pfeiffer. The main cast was rather blah. Let the witch win and marry the prince I say! (Yes she'll probably turn him into a frog or lizard but that's fine.

) Thought Deniro was just silly.
