Star struck

Rating: 9/10 (23 October 2007)

I have not seen a movie as good as this in a long long time. I've never been a one for witches and wizards, never been a Potter fan (probably something to do with making my name rather common), but this film was a perfect blend of humour, romance and magic. It is one of the few stories where I was not bored with the love connection, partly due to Claire Danes' ability to 'brighten' up all the romantic scenes. This movie was laugh out loud at times, which is very difficult thing to achieve with me. It looked like all the actors were having great fun making this film, and though not a Di Nero fan, in his role he was fantastic and showed versatility. This film will definitely be joining my DVD collection!
