Stardust - Movie Review

Jeff: ‘Stardust’ delivers that happily ever after

Plot: A young man, Tristan (Charlie Cox), begins a quest for a fallen star to give to his potential wife (Sienna Miller) and it takes him on quite an adventure. First of, the star turns out to be a beautiful young woman (Claire Daines), and he’s not the only one after her. A witch (Michelle Pfeiffer) and princes trying to gain their father’s crown are also in a deadly pursuit.

Who’s it for: It’s a fantasy, with hints of coy humor throughout. But while kids might like looking at the film, it plays to an older audience.

Expectations: I read and really liked the book. There were hints of “A Princess Bride” in this film, which is an all-time favorite movie for me.
