This movie is excellent. I have watched it over the years and liked it more each time. I highly recommend it for people of all ages and encourage those who watched it uears ago to watch it again. Well done, plus the added bonus of seeing Fred Savage as a child. Brings back the Wonder years.

The best movie of all time!!!! I have probably seen it a million times, but it still keeps it's sparkle and humor every time I see it. There are two scenes that have a little blood, but it's pretty fake. If your kids have seen "Pirates of the Caribbean" they can definitely handel this. It's the best movie ever!!!! If you haven't seen it yet, you need to!!!!

Possibly one of the funniest movies in cinematic history. Aside from Monty Python's Holy Grail, most oft-quoted from my side. It is so subtly funny, hidden under a labrinth of just about everything else, that makes it just about the most memorable movie I've ever seen.

"Death cannot stop true love, it can only delay it" A classic fairytale...with a few funny twists and turns. Wesley and Butter cup fall in love. He supposedly gets killed, and she is chosen by the evil prince to be his bride and is moved into the big castle. Not just a sappy love story, this movie has it all: a beautiful leading man, sword fighting, comedy, suspense. I was very young the first time I saw it and I have to say it is my favorite movie of all time.....

We have had this movie on VHS for years and now plan to buy it on DVD. It's just a great movie that the whole family can enjoy.

If you haven't seen this one, just rent it now. One of the best fantasy-comedies out there, compares (favorably) with Labyrinth and Willow and the princess.

You are "in the pit of depair....don't even think about trying to escape" "You seem a like a decent fellow, I hate to kill you.....You seem like a decent fellow, I hate to die" "Never go up a Sicilian, when death is on the line" and countless more gems. Enjoy.

This movie has it all: Swordplay, Magic, Giants, Albinos, Evil vs Good. Contains the greatest sword fight of all time, the greatest contest of a logic of all time, whit and heart. From Billy Crystal's, "Bye-Bye Boys, Have Fun Storming the Castle," to "As you wish," this is one movie not to be missed!
