sdmarylou Rushed story, no character development, no explanation of the universe or why these characters do the things they do, terrible cgi. Not worth 2 hours.

Xiphoner Just a quick disclaimer; I'm fully aware that, being a 23 y old guy, I don't belong under the "targeted audience" group and my review/rating would probably be better if I was younger. The only major issue I have with this movie is that after the first 10-15 minutes, I pretty much knew what was going to happen throughout and at the end of this movie. When a movie is predictable and too transparent it really hinders my ability to enjoy the movie entirely. If I was younger this probably wouldn't be the case and I would rate it much higher.Now then, that being said.. I do have to say that I still did enjoy the movie as it was really fun and exciting at times. It's by no means a spectacular piece of work, but it's decent nevertheless. The cast was great and they really did the characters justice. The story was, as I said, quite predictable, but enjoyable nevertheless. The scenes with Robert De Niro were hilarious, same goes for Ricky Gervais. The flow of the movie felt really smooth and it didn't really get boring at any point, which is a major plus.Overall, a decent movie that's well worth the watch. It's entertaining and fun! Like I said, I'd rate it higher than 7/10 if I didn't have such a problem with predictable plots.

In this day and age, no matter the movie's supposed time frame it the 18th-19th century, that's no way to talk to any lady. 10 years ago, the world was in a different place. I speak of Robert De Nero's character and his effeminate ways. If it were made today the only thing to be said would be "Why not use an actor who had 'effeminate ways?".

sar_thornton This movie came highly regarded from coworkers who couldn't believe I hadn't seen it. 20 minutes in I knew I wasn't a fan, but when I checked here I was baffled at the high rating/view count! Did we watch the same movie?My issue with Stardust is that it's heavily plot/dialogue based and moves the story line quickly, but it's not a particularly great story. It feels like a stream of clichés delivered by uninspired acting. Everyone in this film is white and cis. There are no surprises. It tries so hard to let you know how dramatic it is. You'll notice the "epic" music occurs every other scene.Maybe the strange badness of this movie is part of its charm, but I found it difficult to sit through. It's not completely unwatchable; mildly interesting stuff happens frequently on screen. I'd probably enjoy it more if it wasn't such high production, or had better actors. I really just wanted to turn it off and watch Harry Potter instead.
