But my girlfriend convinced me to see it with her and I was surprised to find out just how much I liked it! It's a bit slow to get going, but it's full of adventure, romance, and comedy. I was laughing my head off when Robert DiNero enters the movie. He stole the show during his scenes! I do agree that this movie has much of the same feel to it as The Princess Bride, but take it for what it is. Don't expect too much from this B movie, and enjoy the show!

The acting is really fine, Michelle Pfeifer is incredible.
A fun movie as a rental, and worth the time it will take to pop the popcorn. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This movie was slow, boring, with brief humorous moments and a waste of Michelle Pfeiffer's and Robert DeNiro's talents. It's rare that my husband and I give up on a movie, but he couldn't take any more about 1/2 way through. I made it until almost the end and had to turn it off. I kept hoping it would get better, but it didn't. The special effects are good and acting is ok, but the plot becomes too ridiculous. It showed potential in the beginning scenes, but fell apart pretty quickly. The scene with DeNiro in drag was truly obnoxious. I had hoped for a classic like "Princess Bride", but this movie is not in the same league. And beware parents, the movie is rated PG 13 for good reason. There are a lot of violent killings.

Read More Neil Gaiman's book is not the bland tripe you get in the film adaptation. Most of the key scenes and even characters are drastically altered, much to their detriment. Many book to movie conversions go poorly, but all of the touching moments are drained and filled with pages from the dregs of the writer's pool. This is one of the WOSRT book based films I have ever seen. The novel is a wonderful blend of fantasy and fairytale and should not be missed, I wish I could say the same about the movie.
