Enchanting fairy tale

Rating: 8/10 (5 December 2007)

A farm boy Tristan (Charlie Cox) loves a icy "princess" (Sienna Miller) and vows to get her a star, but many others are after the star (Claire Danes). Among them are various sons of Lord Stormhold, a wicked wicked witch (Michelle Pfeiffer). Tristan and the star find refuge in a fantastical dirigible captained by Shakespeare (Robert DeNiro). The star is eventually saved by Tristan, the riddle of his parentage solved and all is happy ever after. The journey is magical, the lead man is fluff but the rest of the cast, sp. Daines, DeNiro and Pfeiffer, makes up for it. Watch the film to recapture your childhood stories that were full of witches, princesses, princes, magic good and bad and above all love. Great film for all ages.
