Summary: The enchanting tale of a fallen star who crashes into a magical kingdom and turns out to be no ordinary meteorite at all, but a beautiful, imperiled woman chased after by an incredible array of seekers who want or need her secret powers. From wicked witches to power-mad princes, from flying pirates to dueling goblins, each person who encounters the star has his or her own agenda, but they all desire just one thing: her heart. (Paramount Pictures)
Fairly good movie. Well acted and well shot. Does a remarkable job of dancing the line between charming and corny. It's a rather silly little fairy tale with some obvious plot twists but it never seems boring or stupid. It is very light though. There is hardly any real fear of anything out of order occurring. There is no sense of danger because it is so obvious where it will all end up. With all that, it's still fun to watch. And Claire Danes is really beautiful in this.
Liked it. I was wondering how successfully the adaptation of Neil Gaiman's fairy tale could be done. I think it was done with a good style, including some very funny moments. Liked it.
Pretty cool and creative. Manages to present all of its many stories nicely with a fair amount of time given to each. Still, a lot of it feels like an unnecessary attempt to be epic; especially the ending. A decent fantasy overall though, with a lovely lighthearted atmosphere. "A star can't shine, when her heart is broken." So cheesy, lol :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this film and didn't know much about it before watching it so it was quite a nice surprise. Lead by an all-star cast with some great performances from Michelle Pfeiffer, who once again plays the perfect villain, and Charlie Cox who was perfect as young Tristan. Great storyline that follows Tristan helping Yvaine, a fallen star, while trying to figure out who he really loves. Its a perfect fantasy movie filled with adventure, comedy and much more and I'd highly reccomend it!
With an often forced sense of humour and an awkward feel to many aspects of the production, Stardust provides a marginally entertaining but inevitably average viewing beyond the implied sentimentality and overused special effects. Although some of the action (undead swordfight) is quite good with a few reasonable cameos thrown in for good measure, it feels ravaged by plotholes and an occasionally flawed script. By the contrived, dry ending I was only left with an overall feeling of indifference.
A little humor, a little romance, a little supernatural, and a little heart goes a long way to making this movie a softer version of "The Princess Bride."
