Movie Reviews of The Princess Bride (Special Edition)
Movie Review: A Classic Romance Story
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this movie as a surprise for my husband so we could watch it on Valentine's Day. He has long been a fan of the movie and enjoyed watching it again. Our 8 year son watched it with us and surprising to me, he enjoyed it too! Great movie!Movie Review: Fantastic movie, disappointing DVD.
Summary: 2 Stars
First off, I LOVE "The Princess Bride". It is a fantastic movie that is timeless. But the DVD is deplorable.
The 20th Anniversary Edition falls short. The only reason I gave it 2 stars and not 1 is because of the fact that the movie is on the DVD, at least. Am I crazy for thinking that for the 20th Edition all the extras on the past DVDs should be able to make it onto the ultra anniversary edition? There are a few select special features, but nothing to shake a stick at. The behind the scenes and everything from the past few editions are all gone and that's ridiculous!
I would reccommend the original Special Edition if you want to get the most out of the DVD. That one at least has the best Special Features. But, until they decide to treat "The Princess Bride"'s fans right and put everything into one compilation, don't bother throwing your money at the DVD. Hopefully they will do it right just in time for the 25th anniversary.

Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great movie. It has humor, romance and a story line. It is a fun movie to watch on a rainy/snowy day.Movie Review: This is true love... You think it happens every day?
Summary: 4 Stars
Watching this movie is still a thrill everytime even after 20 years. It is at the same time the archetypal fairy tale for all ages and a wonderful "fractured" vision of fairy tales. The story is funny and innovative, the characters memorable, the actors endearing, the action enjoyable (great dueling). This 20th anniversary edition is in my mind a bit short on bonuses, as the short featurettes leave you craving for more. They do, however, cast an interesting light on the making of the movie, and no fan should miss the appearance of the actors as they describe their experience of the movie, both at the time and since. It is still worth changing older editions for this one...
