I wasn't sure if I'd like this film, but my wife has been insisting I watch it for what seems like forever now. She's loves it and was dying to know what I'd make of it.

I was in no hurry to see it because I'm very picky when it comes to fantasy films and it's not one of my favorite genres. That being said I didn't love it like my wife does but I really liked it. It's fun…

This was a really enjoyable film. The story is fun and the cast all do an excellent job. Particularly Claire Danes, who I've never been a fan of really. At the beginning I kept thinking that her role was really more suited to someone like Gwyneth Paltrow (were she 10 years younger) but Danes quickly won me over.

Robert De Niro was great fun, as were the princes, played by a collection of some of my favourite british comedians.

Neil Gaiman's fiction doesn't always translate well to the big screen, but this film managed to capture the lighthearted tone and feel for parody really well.

It is a wonderful fantasy story with all the cliches that come with it, but it is done by one of the best storytellers I know and that makes all the difference. Gaiman manages to be creative in the predictability of the genre. He comes up with the most wonderful characters and the two…

Matthew Vaughn directed this? I'm a big fan of his work but I would have never of guessed. I wish I knew what to say about this film, sometimes I love it but sometimes I find it completely irritating. The cast for this is incredible, most notably Claire Danes, although DeNiro and Pfeiffer are pretty entertaining too, and they form a group of fascinating characters. It's a funny and visually wonderful fantasy film, that for the best part is pretty…

“Victoria, for your hand in marriage, I would go to the gold fields of San Francisco and bring you back your weight in gold. I’d go to Africa and bring you back a diamond as big as your fist. Or I’d go to the Arctic and I’d slaughter a polar bear and bring you back its head.” Tristan Thorne

Based on the book by Neil Gaiman, Stardust is a whimsical fairy tale adventure that isn’t really for children, all appearances…

I haven't read the Neil Gaiman novel (I really want to read some of his works, though) so I had no idea what to expect...this movie is a fun fantasy fairytale at it's finest!

The three main arcs of the story were woven together very well. I'm not usually a romantic, but I by the end, I was completely smitten by the relationship between Tristan and Yvaine. Michelle Pfeiffer was exceptionally creepy as the evil witch. The seven prince brothers…

Funny, visually attractive, interesting story, good combination of serious and whimsy. Good movie. My one gripe (other than Claire Dane's face) is the Robert Deniro character. I thought it wasn't well acted and most of the time it was kind of offensive. I wish he would go back to doing serious roles and stay away from the play-against-type roles he's been doing since Analyze This. Upon the second viewing I found it less funny, but still a good movie. Deniro…
