Heart-felt and full of splendour

Rating: 9/10 (11 February 2017)

The Princess Bride is a perfect blend of humour across the ages, and a charm catering to all. Through the eyes of a child and his story teller, it touches on loss, tragedy, death, and revenge. The style of story-telling and the unique capture of banter makes the dark more light-hearted, and makes the light-hearted more heavy. It is an adventure filled witty dialogue and fantastic actors, who do a magnificent job bringing to life such a simple story. The Princess Bride is a result of great direction by Reiner, magnificent writing, and once more, incredible acting. Forget the title, the film is for anyone with a heart.
