One of the best.

Rating: 9/10 (27 October 2003)

This is one of the Fiend's favorite movies. It has all the elements of a great fantasy, love story, action/comedy and rolls them all together with care, love, and talent.
This was my introduction to Cary Elwess, and the shining star in Andre the Giant's life. I had occasion to meet Andre after his making of this film and before his death, and he literally carried a copy of this movie with him every where he went. This movie, to him, was more worthy of pride than his entire life's career as a pro-wrestler. Billy Crystal, who also starred in this production, became his closest friend, and later dedicated "My Giant," to his pal Andre.
Just a little history from a buff.
This movie contains swash-buckling action and sword play, strong-man elements, pirates, princesses, castles, revenge, and true love. For what more, could you ask.
An all-star cast gives us all star performances. If you are a fan of fantasy, this is a definite must-see.
It rates a 9.1/10 from...
