Excellent

Rating: 10/10 (27 October 2007)

When I saw the trailer, I thought what a nice easy-going fantasy flick. But I sure was surprised after seeing the whole movie. There are plenty of LOTR wannabes out there that are heavily marketed and they pretty much all suck. This movie didn't try to be the LOTR, it was just pure fairy tale. I watch a lot of movies, over hundred new ones every year, and only about one or two of them really touch me. This was one of those movies.
I don't want to write a review because there are many of good ones already in the comments. I just want to say that if you liked this movie, I sincerely hope you watch 10th Kingdom also, it's like the Stardust but lasts for nine hours.
