Well, I liked it.

Rating: 9/10 (12 January 2004)

It's true I had heard good things before I went to see it, but usually that *spoils* a movie for me because I hype it up in my mind. So for this movie I had some high hopes, and even though some people have complained that it's bad, I liked it. It's cool, it's pretty, and I thought it was quite funny in parts (I laughed out loud several times.) I thought it was a lot like Princess Bride though so maybe that's why I liked it so much. Oh, and Ewan MacGregor as well as everyone else did a really good job--his accent may be corny but he pulls off a larger-than-life character just fine... or didn't you see Down with Love?
