{movie} stardust (2007)

A young man journeys to a magical world to win the heart of his true love in this charming fantasy based on Neil Gaiman's novel. Tristan (Charlie Cox) has promised Victoria (Sienna Miller) that he'll retrieve a fallen star to secure her love. Along the way, he battles a pirate named Captain Shakespeare (Robert De Niro), an evil witch (Michelle Pfeiffer) and other assorted goblins and ghosts. Peter O'Toole, Claire Danes and Rupert Everett co-star.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: *** (Actually 2.5) I'm not normally into this kind of fantasy story, but this movie wasn't half bad. I actually kind of enjoyed it. The performances were all right and the story was all right. Put it all together and the movie is all right. I could have done without it being two hours, but aside from some moments that could have been cut, it was a decent movie. The beginning was good, the middle kind of bored me at times, but the end was pretty good.
