What do Stars do?

A philosopher once asked, "Are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human?"

Stardust opened in Singapore this week and the Fad girl caught the falling star.

A Neil Gaiman graphic novel turned major motion picture, Stardust ultimately is a fairy-tale love story, taking the audience along with it on a magical adventure filled with wicked witches, power-hungry princes, flying pirates and comical ghosts.

Now if you were expecting a stylo deliverance of intrigue and sci-fi bc since this is based on Gaiman's graphic novel, then you might be slightly disappointed because what the Fad girl discovered was that this is more a fantasy film produced for children from age 5 to 50.

However if you just want to unwind and have some fun, enjoy the story like how you would enjoy Shrek with LOTR and a dash of true love between a fallen star (the beautiful Claire Danes who shines, literally) and the chosen one (see Charlie Cox undergo an extreme makeover from a clumsy bloke to a fine handsome cutie), Stardust fulfils that and gives you more!!

Being a softie, the Fad girl loves the ending scene. In order not to spoil the broth for all of ya, it shall not be disclosed here. Do ask her if you really have nothing better to do! :p

Anyway look out also for the stellar performance by Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert de Niro (the Fad girl's personal favourite in the film) and be blasted away by this super-nova-licious new release that just hit Singapore.

PS: Makes a great date-movie as well! :)
