Were it not for its more traditional moral depiction of the evils of witchcraft, this politically correct fantasy might deserve an abhorrent rating. There goes the family audience! Thus, despite some intriguing trailers, STARDUST is bound to have a lot of empty seats when it opens. Both Tristan and his father commit fornication, and the fiercesome pirate captain turns out to be a cross-dressing homosexual. Although the movie makes it clear that witchcraft is evil, sexual immorality is not. STARDUST is predictable, and most of the main characters are uninspired. With the witch hot on their trail, Tristan and Yvaine find refuge on a pirate ship led by the fiercesome Captain Shakespeare, who has a secret in his closet. An evil witch, Lamia, covets the blood of Yvaine, however, because it will give her long life and beauty. When Tristan gets to where the star fell, he discovers another beautiful woman, Yvaine, the form that the star takes in Stormhold. Young Tristran promises the girl of his dreams that he will bring back a fallen star that has landed in the magical kingdom of Stormhold.
