Solid entertainment

Rating: Null/10 (13 January 2008)

This film is about a young man embarking an adventure through a fantasy world, fighting against cold blooded princes and evil witches.
"Stardust" has an imaginative and relatively complicated storyline. Fortunately it is well told, so it is easy to understand. The progression of Yvaine and Tristan is convincing. I like the imaginative and well decorated sets, and the costumes are also nice. The ideas of dead princes appearing in black and white is funny, it gives a lighter atmosphere to the otherwise tight action sequence. It is interesting that Michelle Pfeiffer chooses to do another evil character after her role in Hairspray. It is also interesting to see that all the actors use the British accent in the film, despite the mostly American cast. The only complaint I have is the ending, the final star trick should have been done earlier! "Stardust" provides solid entertainment.
