In the English village of Wall, a young man (Charlie Cox) goes on a journey to woo Victoria (Sienna Miller). During his travels, a falling star (Claire Danes) takes him into a fantasy world that acquaints him with a witch (Michelle Pfeiffer) and a pirate (Robert De Niro).
Stardust reminded me of The Princess Bride. Both are mature fairy tales that both children and adults can enjoy. Stardust isn't as good as The Princess Bride, but it still may be worth picking up at the video store.
Two things bothered me about Stardust. Its production value seemed very low. Some of the special effects looked cheap and amateurish. Also, I hated seeing my all-time favorite actor, Robert De Niro, dress up in ladies attire. Jamie says "6".
