fun for everyone

Rating: 8/10 (27 June 2009)

Going into seeing this movie I was a bit skeptical because fantasy movies are not always my cup of tea. Especially a romantic fantasy.
Little did I know that I was in for a ride through cinematic magic. Everything in the movie from plot to dialogue to effects was very near perfection.
Claire Danes shines like the star she is in this movie. From beginning to end you fall more and more in love with this character.
Michelle Pfeiffer is menacing as an evil witch bent on capturing the star for eternal youth and beauty.
Robert De Niro is a lovable character who gives the audience the greatest bit of comic relief as the movie is gaining momentum towards the climax.
Overall this was a movie that surprised and delighted me as a movie fan. If you are looking for a fun and enjoyable movie that will be fun for the kids and adults alike, Stardust is the way to go.
