Our local Hollywood Video had a great sale on their previously viewed DVD's. So we stocked up! We got Meet the Robinsons, Shrek 3, Hairspray, Ratatouille, Stardust, and The Prestige.

I love Stardust and The Prestige!!! They are great movies! If you haven't seen them, go buy them. GO! NOW! You will want to own them because you will want to watch both of them several times. Stardust had really crappy trailers, and so I don't think that it got the hype that it deserves. It is kind of a new "Princess Bride" type movie of the day. It's a great love story with a twist of fantasy. It is a little too violent for the small kids though. :( Guess they'll have to wait a few years to watch it with mommy.

The Prestige was a great how-did-they-do-that movie. Great story line with twists and turns. Another good movie that came out the same time The Prestige was The Illusionist. It was good as well, but The Prestige was definitely better.

Happy viewing!
