The last film I actually watched was 'Stardust'. Can't be arsed to write a full review though. An at times overly complex 'children's fairy tale' this tells the story of a young man who sets out to win the heart of his vain and self centred object of affection by finding s sacred star. At the same time, a dying king sends his 3 murderously ambitious sons on a quest to find his successor by finding a sacred star. Also at the same time (!) 3 wicked witches embark on a quest to find a sacred star that will return their youthful looks. You guessed it, it's all the same star. The star turns up in female human form and the young man, Tristan finds her first. What happens next is a telling of all three stories and their divergent and convergent paths. At times simply indecipherable and toe curlingly cheesy, Stardust is never the less a more than creditable stab at a meaningful fantasy fable. Don't expect highbrow entertainment, and caution is advised if watching with very young kids as some scenes are a bit macabre. The film features many surprising cameos, including some top Brit comics as the ghostly Royal family. The ending is amazingly predictable, but that's ok sometimes, and it certainly warmed this heart a little. A strong 6/10 but no more for this piece of popcorn fantasy. Dammit Tom! I thought you were going to review the David Essex classic! ;D

And that's before you try and see past the fact that a hobbit's joined the West Ham firm. ;D

I'm going to be highly original and watch Dead Man's Shoes tonight. I'll dispense with another review, most of you are clued up already and those who aren't, well...
SHAME ON YOU!
