Princess Bride is a comedic take on classic fairy tale storyline. Some action/ romance movies come off as cheesy when they are supposed to be taken seriously. The film plays off of those typical scenarios, and over exaggerates the reactions. The over-all feel is serious, but the content of the dialogue is not. A person is expecting a heart-warming love tale, and is happily delivered a comedy. My favorite character, though a small part, was the priest. I love when big name stars do cameos. This type of humor can be seen in a lot of 80’s comedy. The 80’s sure did love their spoofs, and they did them well.
