Storyteller approach piqued the children's interest and held their attention. They loved the characters. The intelligent princess scored a big hit with her witty retorts. Kids repeated several of the lines over and over after the screening.
A jewel. The beautiful Buttercup and her "one true love," Wesley part and lose touch for many years. When an evil prince arranges to marry Buttercup, Wesley returns to battle warriors, giants and wizards to rescue his true love. Humorous, slightly fractured fairy tale with a princess who stands up for herself. Charming sets and period costumes, well-acted and seamlessly edited. Employs extensive vocabulary and a variety of literary devices.
From celebrated director Rob Reiner (When Harry Met Sally) and Oscar-winning screenwriter William Goldman (Chaplin) comes "an enchanting fantasy" (Time) filled with adventure, romance and plenty of "good-hearted fun" (Roger Ebert)!
