This movie is incredible!

Rating: 10/10 (14 November 2008)

Silly me I never watched Stardust when it came out in 2007. I read some bad reviews and I was fooled. I would have never guessed this movie was so incredible, that it is now in my top 5.
The storyline is fantastic. I used to read stories all of my childhood, but I swear that in quite some parts the storyline of Stardust overlooked my guesses.
The characters are also fantastic: starting with very small parts - like Bernard's, to the main characters - Tristan and Yvaine. Every character has a great deal of importance in the story, and every actor did his or her best job becoming a part of this story.
It is so beautiful that great actors, older or younger, like Peter O'Toole and Rupert Everett, make the best of their small appearances in the movie. I loved all the subplots, especially the one with the ghosts of the king's sons, which were hilarious.
But what I love most about this movie is the way it made my heart beat for two hours. I can still remember how fast my heart went beating when Yvaine confessed her love to Tristan. And then how amused I was when I saw his little mouse eyes. And how melted my heart was when I realized that this story is about an impossible love, made possible by extraordinary characters and extraordinary adventures.
The lovers came not only from different worlds, but from completely antagonic worlds, that could only exist one opposite to the other.
Love, adventure, imagination, fantasy, humor, great image and soundtrack, great story, even great actors - this movie is a must see!
