Our take

Beloved by a generation, this is a fairy tale that no one should grow out of. The witty, offbeat script from William Goldman (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) has more quotable dialogue than you can shake a sword at, and the entire cast makes it feel like a labor of love. Merry Christmas!
