Movies: "Stardust"

Stardust

I read the book several years ago and I really enjoyed it. The movie, not so much. I mean, it's a fine film, with some cool special effects, cute girls, nasty villains and heroes you can appreciate, but it's perhaps a little simple minded. I think the problem here is that the book transported me to this other world, whereas the movie was more like a travel brochure. Pretty pictures, but you don't really get the feel of the place.

Update December 2016 replaced missing pictures.
