stardust

Rating:★★★★
Category:Movies
Genre: Other
stardust may very well be on my list of favorite movies this year only because jeri watched it with me. on that count, i give it five stars. but it still doesn't make my roster of movies i so hearts in this lifetime.

because...
claire danes is in it and can i just say i strongly dislike her? she gives yvaine a bad name and she took away the mystique of stars. not too crazy about her 'moment' [that cheesy one where she talks to the mouse-tristan about love]. it was rather disappointing. for that i give it 2 stars.

it wasn't as morbid as i'd imagine it would be. too much expectations. haha. and the set isn't as lord of the ring-ish or harry potter-ish since the production design could do a little better. great PDs make the viewers want to be in the movie. stormhold just wasn't too appealing. oh well. i give 3 stars on this.

i lavet because...
michelle pfeifer is the bomb. i loved how she portrayed her character that i actually hoped she'd kill yvaine and take her heart like she was supposed to. i absolutely wanted the villain to succeed this time. oh boo claire danes. i give it 4 stars.

robert de niro's captain shakespeare knocked me off my feet. i swear i love that man in a boa. :) *winks* five stars baby!

and okay the plot was all good, translated into the movie, not so great. but still magical so i guess that merits four stars. i'm all for fairytales and cheesy happy endings. [although i still wanted yvaine to die and not tristan... oh wait, that's the book].

on the average i give the story of my life [yes, i am a star thankyouverymuch] a 3.8 roughly a four and a whoot whoot.

I love Stardust. :D But I just have to compartmentalize the idea that Claire Danes is Yvaine. :D

and Captain Shakespeare? Isn't he adorable? :D
