A Story about a book which is really about storytelling

Rating: 8/10 (30 April 2013)

Yes, there's the fairy tale double coated in delicious dialog and salacious characters played beyond the realm of silliness but it's the story of true love that conquers all and is the cohesive constant. True Love conquers all, and allows for our story to play out in this fictitious land of yore. This only happens because of the indulgent set up of our good guys and bad guys full of lore, secrets, personal histories and ambitions. Smart, worthy and yet silly. Director Rob Reiner keeps us both on track with his talented cast and in sync through the Grandfather-Grandson aside, and therefore the absurd story is not so "inconceivable". Another favorite due to its quotable dialog and characters cemented in our hearts.
