Posted Apr 17, 2002 - I thought I would never find anybody who didn't love this movie but then came my brother-in-law I guess he just doesn't like fairy tales. If you require intense serious dialogue and plot schemes this isn't the movie for you. However if you have an imagination and are young at heart you would think this was one of the top ten movies you've ever seen. Swashbuckling, pirates, R.O.U.S., a beautiful princess, a witty hero, a dispicable villian, revenge, Peter Falk, highly quotable lines. What more can you ask for in a movie. How anybody could give this movie less than five stars is INCONCEIVABLE!!!

Posted Dec 14, 2000 - Unconditional recommendation. Very funny, romantic movie. Peter Faulk is great as the grandfather, Cary Elwes and Robin Wright are good as the star-crossed lover; but it's the bad guys who really shine. Hilarious story line with a sweet ending. The only thing that may put people off is the less than beautiful sets and scenery....the giant rats are particulary bad (but try to work past them.).

Posted Dec 15, 2000 - I may have seen this movie ten times, but I can't get tired of it. It's great for anyone who has ever been a little kid, and everyone else too. I know people who quote it more often than Ben Franklin, Winston Churchhill, and the Bible put together. Delightful, like a two-hour chocolate sundae.

Posted Dec 15, 2000 - Fantastic movie! Humor in the tradition of the Holy Grail. Fun characters and plot with a fairytale ending that proves heartwarming for the romantic but definitely not a "girly movie."

Posted Apr 14, 2001 - Rob Reiner hit it big when he directed Stand By Me, so he wanted to do a comedy that would entertain us. He spoofed fairy tales and stuff like that, and hit it lucky when he directed The Princess Bride. Billy Crystal was so, so funny as the elf, and Fred Savage was so cute in it.

Posted Jun 23, 2001 - Lovely, the only true fairy tale ever filmed. Great acting and great editing, which, in a movie is half the film. Nice humour and a truly magic quality that autoiroby enhances rather than diminish.

Posted Dec 14, 2001 - I absolutely loved this movie. Plot - mmm, not much. Basically Prince Humpardink is after Princess Buttercup ( great names ). And there is a lot of fantasy from there on. Like the ROUS ( rodents of unusual size ) etc. Acting??? - Decent but that is as far as you can go with that. However we do get to see 1 1/2 hours of Robin Wright Penn, and that makes it all worth it. ;-), actually this is a fantastic movie, definitely recommended.

Posted Dec 17, 1999 - It's very hard to say what your favorite anything is once you get past 12 or so, but that doesn't mean that you can't choose things to SAY are you favorite - if that makes any sense. When people ask me what my favorite movie is, I tell them The Princess Bride.
