When I first heard of it, I dismissed it as being kids stuff and some sappy romance. I was wrong.
The Princess Bride, uses satire to criticize rigid fairy tale conventions. Posing as a "classic tale of true love and high adventure", The Princess Bride portrays greatly exaggerated characters to mock the common fairy tale archetypes.
It is well designed, well directed and well acted. Every character in the film is memorable, even down to the priest who only has a few lines. The casting and writing of these characters all came together and now see it famous appeal . It's one of those films, no matter who you are, that makes you smile inside by the time you reach the end. 8/10.
