This film is a must for any fan of Fantasy; it has a great cast, a good sense of humour, and - although it contains many of the usual ingredients found in any fantasy story - is quite original. A young man crosses the "wall" of the village"Wall" into another world and falls in love with a captured princess. He is presented with a surprise son 9 months later, who grows up to be a nice young man! He, in an attempt to woo the local high and mighty lady, vows to bring her a shooting star back from the land across the wall as a token of his love. Thus begins the adventure!
Key performances to watch for are De Niro as the Pirate Captain, Charlie Cox as Tristan (the hero) and Michelle Pfeiffer as Lamia. Mark Williams (Arthur Weasley in Harry Potter) also plays a brilliant part as a transmogrified goat!
Not an absolute classic, this film potentially will be too long for the younger ones, but is great for older children and those parents who like to see fantasy films. ****
Stardust the Mystery of the star (2007) is a fantastic drama good sympathetic nerve which I liked to look until the any end: a good amount of humour, a very good story not so bad that that and well envoûtante which will do nothing but delight us in less few seconds; carried by a very good casting especially Robert De Niro well pickling once again in a role more than seizing, but also Charlie Cox and Claire Danes are quite as good; quite perfect special effects, an effective scenario holding the road well and an excellent setting in scene. Stardust the Mystery of the star (2007) is a fantastic drama seizing to see immediately because it will distract us very quickly.
