Fantastic family film, and a timeless comedy classic!

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2017)

The Princess Bride has always been the go-to "I want to scream with laughter" film for my family, and with very good reason. It never disappoints! Despite being watched to the point of perfect memorization, the movie never ceases to tickle my funny bone, and I always end up in stitches! The casting is gorgeous, the writing cheeky, the innuendos tasteful, the jokes delightful, and the characters eternally endearing. One cannot complain about the message the film sends either, that true love is the strongest power in the universe and can conquer all odds and adversities, even death. My favorite characters from the film are undeniably Wesley (of course! he's everyone's favorite) and Inigo. Both are brave, cunning, and willing to take any measure to bring the baddies to justice. (and the fact that they're both drop dead gorgeous doesn't hurt either.) Beautifully portrayed by the gorgeous Carey Elwes and the sweet faced Mandy Patinkin, they perfectly frame the movie. Peter Falk is adorable (as always) as the grandfather/narrator, and Robin Wright is flawless in her performance as butter cup. This film is a must see/must add to your collection type of movie, as it is a work of art for the entire family to love and enjoy. It's timelessness has endured for 30 years, and will continue to do so forever more. To the writers, producers, director and actors of the production, well done dear friends; very well done!
