Movie Review by Ron

Inconceivable!
This movie is one of the rare movies that you can watch over and over again because everything in it is done so well. I don't see why this movie should just appeal to children or women. Sure, you could easily say this is a "chick flick" because it's about true love. I thought that true love would have universal appeal to it. Even if you don't like love for some reason the whole movie is so FUNNY! If you don't like love and you don't like to laugh...then this movie would probably kill you.
Everything in this movie is spot on. The acting. The Direction. You can just tell that this movie was a labor of love for all those involved and they wanted it to be done right. Even William Goldman who wrote the book did the screenplay as well to make sure it stayed as true to the book as possible.
Bottom Line: The perfect fairy tale movie. Possible the best family film of all time.
