Stardust

We just got done watching the movie Stardust and we both agreed that we need to buy it!! It was a great movie full of fantasy, magic,and humor. Yet it was quirky and romantic at the same time. The simple plot is a young man sets off into the magical world to retrieve a fallen star for his beloved. Along the way he meets a slue of characters who are all looking for the "fallen star". The entire cast did an amazing job. Robert DeNiro is a riot. Michelle Pfeiffer plays the perfect villain and you will absolutely fall in love with Charlie Cox, who plays Tristan. The sets and costumes were beautiful. I loved the metaphor that when you are truly in love, you shine like a star :) Definitely a very imaginative, wonderful fairy tale!!! It's based on a novel by Neil Gaiman so you know I will be adding it to my must read list.
Rating: 5/5

I love that you posted this! I've been raving about this movie and telling all my friends to see this. Just last night I was trying to convince a friend and she was being difficult! ;) My boyfriend read the book and said it's a little different than the book but the movie did a good job. I'm going to read the book too!
