Matthew Vaughn is a talented director and he has a talented cast at his disposal in telling this entertaining adventure story. The film has a definite "Princess Bride" attitude to it - a mixture of visuals and action-adventure style fight scenes and sarcastic and witty humor. Robert De Niro is the scene-stealer for me, in a role that is reminiscent of the crazy character he played in Gilliam's Brazil - so far out of the Bobby De Niro box that it's a fun and fresh departure for the actor. In all, I definitely went in expecting a by-the-books costume adventure and came out enjoying the movie a great deal. |

Unintentional Laughs is Stardust's Strength |
|
It is important, if one enjoys the art of film, to occasionally see an awful movie. This gives balance to your opinion, gives you an idea of what truly bad cinema looks like, and provides some wonderful unintentional laughs. I say this because it's one of the few good things about Stardust. It will give one a much better appreciation for better films, and even mediocre films.
Stardust is about a shooting star that has landed on (presumably) earth. It turns out, the star is actually a person named Yvaine. The main character, Tristan, finds Yvaine, and wants to bring Yvaine home to his girlfriend to win her hand in marriage. He does not know, however, that there are other forces that want the star very badly, and will kill to get it.
There's more to the story than that, but the whol... |

Spell Bound! |
|
Young Tristan (Charlie Cox) wants to impress the woman he loves, the beautiful Victoria (Sienna Miller). He promises to go and find her the falling star they have both seen and to bring it to her for her birthday and he has a week to do just that. Little does he know that the star is not a star at all, but a celestial beauty named Yvaine (Claire Danes) and that a greedy witch and the King's feuding sons are also after her with sinister intentions. Tristan pledges allegiance to protect the lovely Yvaine from the evil forces.
Michelle Pfeiffer is wickedly delightful as Lamia, the evil witch who’s trying to steal Yvaine's youth and Robert De Niro gives one of his funniest performances ever as a gay pirate.

I love Matthew Vaughn! =) |
|
Very good Adventure movie!
maybe it is not something for adults, but the young at heart surely loves this film!
i planned to watch this movie because of Matthew Vaughn after watching his Kick-ass, which i extremely liked! I must say that Vaughn did a good job and also his production team.
i was confused in the story, not the flow but the impact of the story to me. I didn't know if i like it, i enjoy every part of it and at the same time saying "such a common adventure.. adventure is always like this... lack of action? but i am loving what i am seeing.. hmm???"
Acting wise, i can't say.. what is for sure is that i enjoy every character. =)
In general, i can say it is good. something i want the next generation to see (am i being exaggerated?) anyways, like what i said, i enjo... |
