I've watched this wonderful movie so many times, that I practically have it memorized. Yet, I still watch it again.I love the actors' performances; they are all amazing in their roles.This is one of the few movies I've seen where they closely follow the book (also wonderful, BTW).

Plot; A grandfather spins a tale of romance and adventure for his sick young grandson. I remembered The Princess Bride as a charming and deftly balanced mix of romance, humor and swashbuckling, and I'm pleased to say that it remains just that, even through my now more jaded eyes. What I'd forgotten is that the humor is far more sly and witty than I'd given it credit for, and that the pace is, for lack of a better word, "jaunty" and serves the story rather than undermining it. I should also make a note about Andre the Giant. In a cast that's quite accomplished, how is it that a professional wrestler not speaking his first language upstages them all? A fairytale indeed.

Plot - This movie's story is dumb and convoluted, but its really funny and entertaining. Characters - The characters are dumb, and the acting is mediocre, but they're all really funny. Cinematography - This is a pretty cheap-looking movie.Overall this is a dumb and cheesy movie that is not meant to be taken seriously. It is extremely entertaining, and I'd recommend it.
