This is my favorite movie of all time

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2006)

Okay, so I'm an adult. I realize there have been better films made. But, I saw this film hundreds of times growing up and I can still watch it today and be just as entertained. Personally, I don't think Cary Elwes has done anything since that is as enjoyable to watch as his portrayal of Westley. I think it was geniusly cast. Robin Wright(later Robin Wright Penn) is very young here and her role is really secondary to Elwes' but, it's interesting to see her coming into her own. In my opinion, she actually goes on to do more interesting work. This film also has Billy Crystal, Mandy Patinkin, Christopher Guest(of A Mighty Wind, Waiting for Guffman, Best In Show, This Is Spinal Tap), Chris Sarandon and pro wrestling super star, Andre the Giant. How on earth can you go wrong? It also has Fred Savage(of Wonder Years) and Peter Falk as grandson and grandfather reading the story. Honestly, that's my least favorite part--the interruptions by Savage and Falk. Just give me more of Westley and Buttercup!
