The Princess Bride (1987)

My Rating: 100%

This is an awesome film that will be remembered for a long time.

Plot: After Buttercup's love, Westley was murdered by the dreaded pirate Roberts, Prince Humperdinck proposes to her which she reluctantly agrees to. Then one day as she was riding through the woods, she is kidnapped by outlaws who plan to kill her in order to start a war. But this start to take a turn when they are being chased by a man in black.

This is a very remarkable movie. it's fun, it has an excellent and clever story, the action is awesome and is very, very fun all around.

Acting/Characters:
Cary Elwes/Westley: He is a very fascinating character. He's clever, he's skilled and quite the trickster. But he's also wise and has a very clear goal to life for in life.
Robin Wright/Buttercup:what is there to say? she was an obvious damsel in distress who often just stood there often waiting for someone to help her. But hey, she still deeply loves Westley deeply which makes it all the worthwhile with him always fighting for her.
Wallace Shawn/Vizzini: He's such a lovable character. he has some of the best lines in the whole movie. the possibility of there being a better actor that could do the job:INCONCEIVABLE!!! XD
Mandy Patinkin and Andre the Giant/Inigo Montoya and Fezzik: Very well acted and very lovable characters.
Billy Crystal and Peter Cook/Miracle Max and the Clergyman: they stole the show hands down. they were to fricking funny.

Screenplay: very well done. So many quotes to remember.

Music:Fantastic. That's actually the thing I didn't like too much about the second half of the film was how alot of a exciting music was over. but you know. whatever.

Editing: very well done. told the story just fine.

Action: excellent very good work.

and that is my review for The Princess Bride.
