The Best Fantasy Film I Have Seen in Years

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2007)

Wow.
I just got back from a preview screening of Stardust, and I can't tell you enough how much I enjoyed it.
Not since "The Princess Bride" has there been a film that blended humor, romance, action, adventure, drama, and fantasy so well. It was visually beautiful on screen, the actors were all perfectly cast, from big name stars to people I'd never heard of, and the story was compelling and original. It might be a bit much for younger children, as the evil of the villains is very clearly portrayed.
This is hands down the best movie I have seen this year (sorry "Knocked Up", you had a good run). See it once, see it twice, tell your friends, pre-order the DVD. You will not be disappointed, unless you happen to hate movies with humor, romance, action, adventure, drama, or fantasy. If you hate those things, go see Daddy Day Camp, which I'm sure contains none of those elements.
