    “…Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I’d know it for myself. My heart… It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it’s trying to escape because it doesn’t belong to me anymore. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I’d wish for nothing in exchange – no gifts. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine.” You really do not see shit like this being made AT ALL anymore. I don’t want to say hollywood hates fun fantasy films but uhhh…..hollywood hates fun fantasy films :/

    I wish they’d make more movies like this. This is the closest thing to The Princess Bride we’ve gotten this century and I wish more people would follow in this vein of campy fairy tale movies. This movie is pretty bizarre but through Matthew Vaughn’s vision and some incredible performances, the heart of it comes through. Michelle Pfeiffer is especially exceptional, making me wish she’d pop up in more of these kinds of films. All in all, effective, cute, and escapist in the best way possible.

    Sir Ian McKellan introduces us to the young “Dunstan” (Ben Barnes) who hops over the wall and encounters a young girl, enslaved by an enchanted chain. Neither are slow on the uptake, and into her wagon they go… Nine months later, a package arrives at their door and we meet “Tristan”. Many years later, he (now Charlie Cox) proves to be a bit of a chip off the old block, and when told of his progeny decides that he, too fancies a trip over the wall. This time, though, he wants to fetch a piece of a fallen star for his love “Victoria” (Sienna Miller). On his search, he encounters the beautiful “Yvaine” (Claire Danes) without realising that she is the personification of the star and that both are now the targets of the nasty witch “Lamia” (Michelle Pfeiffer) who wants the star to restore her power. Right from the start, this film consists of an entertaining series of escapades with a strong, characterful, cast including a mischievous Peter O’Toole as a king quite content to see his children fight to the death for the right to succeed him; and Robert de Niro as the captain of a flying pirate ship notorious for his menacing and dastardly deeds (but who has his own not-so-well hidden secret). The story is engaging, sometimes quite amusing, and the visual effects – especially towards the conclusion – work well with plenty of chemistry between Danes and Cox. It’s too long, there’s no denying that, and maybe we could have condensed the first twenty minutes better, but Pfeiffer is a good baddie and there is plenty of action to keep it going. Not sold on the Take That song at the end (apparently, neither was Miss Pfeiffer), but it’s still a well crafted fantasy adventure that I quite enjoyed.
