Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2007)

This film was absolutely brilliant i really must say. It was a new, fresh look at fairy tales. The main things that set it apart from others is that strangely in some elements it has a sense of realism to it, for example they don't have posh ridiculous accents, and the various cameos such as Ricky Gervais and Robert De Niro really added to this.
Even though i guest what the story would be about 15 minutes in, it didn't take away from the enjoyment one bit! This definitely isn't a just a kids fairy tale it appeals to all ages. Don't be fooled by the trailer, when i saw it i really didn't like the look of it and thought it would be another meaningless blockbuster but it really isn't.
I would 100% advice anyone whatever age you are to watch this it is really a brilliant, warm funny film. Robert De Niro does a funny and different performance, at first when he came on i was thinking it would be the same old role that he usually plays but this film is just full of surprises! WATCH IT its a must see movie! 10/10 and usually I'm very critical of films.
