Stardust

Rating: 8.8/10
Genre: Fantasy
Overall value for money and time: 8.7/10

I personally loved this movie a lot. It has a very fairytale feel to it and the concept, the plot, is just unique in every sense. It has been a while since Claire Danes sparkled in a movie ever since "Romeo and Juliet" and this movie is finally it. Apart from a fantastic fantasy plot, there's also great humour, romance and great acting on the cast. Every villian in this movie doesn't make you despise them totally, I mean after all, they're either too funny or attractive to make you hate them. The only drawback I can think of the movie is the ending. I didn't like the ending. Though complete, it was fairly abrupt. The movie is about a guy who's madly in love with a girl and it's another unrequitted love story. One night, they witnessed a shooting star together and he makes a pack to retrieve the star for her. Hence, his magical journey starts soon after. This is one movie you can watch over and over again and will not get sick of it. An excellent "couple movie". Do catch it with your special someone and it might just sparkle your hearts!
