I rewatched rocky last night. I really liked it! I think the theme was simple, the focus was very monotonous. But it flashed out with substance and emotion. Compare to Creed, I felt I can empathize with Rocky than Creed. I felt I can understand Rocky and his people around him better.

Stardust
I remembered I watched it once. But somehow, it was not impressive at the time. I remembered that I had other things in my mind. Or, I was doing something at the same time. So I was not impressed.
But man, oh, man, it's such a good fantasy movie. Very classic story line, awesome chemistry between characters, and most importantly, there's humor, which did not take you out of the movies! I felt I was taken out the movie by some of the humor in the Princess bride.
I like Stardust! The story was a boy trying to charm his first love by getting a falling meteorite. But by crossing a wall by his village, he entered a magical realm, thus his adventure began. The image captured here, landscape, daily life, I can feel the weight and wear, grandeur and color in almost every shot. The characters are likable as well! The magic in the movie felt realistic and fun.
A truly great movie!
