"Stardust" Review
The Professor gives it an
A+.
IMDB.com plot
outline: In a countryside town bordering on a magical land, a young
man makes a promise to his beloved that he'll retrieve a fallen star by
venturing into the magical
realm.Wonderful! I've already seen
it twice...The logline above is
accurate, but does not do it justice. Neither do the TV commercials. It has the
humor of "Shrek" without being a parody. It has the charm of a fairy tale
without the saccharine blandness inspired by Disney. It remembers that folk
tales, after all, had some really terrifying and disgusting stuff in them,
without getting bogged down or
over-serious.Definitely my "see it many
times" movie for 2007 so far.
