He's one of those actors who can just make the movie - no Adonis certainly-- but much better because he's a living breathing although mostly untouchable man. He was pretty good in here to boot - as was his female counterpart - what's her name - anyway..........watch this one -- really cute

You might take one look at Stardust and dismiss it for the 13-year-olds. Don't. Granted, 13-year-old girls will certainly love it. Based off author Neil Gaiman?s graphic novel, Stardust comes down to a young shop boy Tristan (Charlie Cox) promising the prettiest girl in the village (Sienna Miller) that he will catch a falling star from the land on the other side of the wall and bring it to her. So, yes, Stardust is a sappy love story. Yet, it manages to channel the Princess Bride with its bawdry humor and one-of-a-kind villains. The villains are so good. From Pfeiffer as a narcissistic witch to Dinero as a flamboyant pirate: the villains in Stardust steal the show. Like all old fairytales, the deaths in Stardust are violent and imaginative, yet too funny and not graphic enough to really upset most children. Men, prep yourselves for some dirty deaths and a grand chick fight. Women, a charming love story. Kids, just smile 'cause (pun, pun) Stardust shines.

I'll admit that when I first heard about this movie when my friend told me she had some tickets to a screening that I thought I wasn't going to like it... BOY, WAS I WRONG!!! This is was a wonderful film. I was laughing the whole time, the effects, scenery, and costumes were gorgeous, and I just loved it! I was on the edge of my seat, and I just wish I could live such an adventure! I'd say it was kind of like a romantic fairy tale with some LOTR-ish type movie. I've never read the book, but if the movie was good...the book will be too!!!

i have been disappointed in most fantasy books make into movies, so i was not expecting much for stardust. boy, was i wrong. it was beautiful, tense, and hilarious at times. perfect for the family!

We made up an ominous group, two ladies- ages 32 & 31, with a parade of children- boys 11, 8, & 4 and girls 9, & 4. If we survived the wait into the theater for the pre-screening, could the movie hold the attention of all? Amazingly, as the second group in line, the wait went quickly and was well worth it!! Other than having to remind them a couple of times to quieten their enthusiasm during the movie, we had an easy evening. Entertaining on different levels, every child was enthralled the entire time, and so were we! They're still talking about it, and enthusiastically marking the days until it comes out on DVD since it is, as they love to rate it, "A Keeper!"
