There were a lot of characters such as Westley, Buttercup,Prince Humperdinck, and the thieves consisting of Spaniard(Inigo) and Giant(Fezzik). Especially, Inigo was a very interesting character. His father was killed by an anonymous six-fingered man, and he was trying to find him and revenge.
The whole story of this movie was a content of the book. Grandfather read the book to his sick grandson, and the movie started with a scene of a peaceful farm.
Westley, a farm boy of Buttercup fell in love with her, and she also loved him. Westley went to the sea to earn money for marriage, but he didn't come back. She waited and waited, and 5 years later, she went to the kingdom to marry the prince Humperdinck. However, the prince did not love her at all. His plan was killing her and blaming others, so that he found a reason to start a war. Therefore, he hired the thieves to kidnap Buttercup in the forest of thieves.
When the thieves and Buttercup arrived to the cliff of insanity, suddenly a man in black appeared. He defeated Inigo, the Spanish fencer and Fezzik, the giant. Finally, he rescued Buttercup and he turned out to be Westley. They escaped there through the fire swamp, but Humperdinck's army was waiting for them. Buttercup returned to the kingdom again, and Westley was taken away to the pit of despair.Meanwhile, Inigo and Fezzik who lost their job, heard the rumor of Westley. He was already dead when they found him, but they visited Miracle Max and saved him with the magic bean. They headed to the kingdom and rescued Buttercup just before the marriage. Inigo also succeed to revenge to the six-fingered man, count Rugen.
The ending of the movie was a scene of Westley, Buttercup, Inigo and Fezzik riding horses and disappearing into the sun.
The movie was old but story and characters were very nice. I loved all the characters appeared in the movie. Story was typical but it was pretty interesting too. but only thing that was little funny was the situations happening accidentally. It was hard to understand how could Westley find Buttercup.
Humors in the movie made the movie much enjoyable. In some serious scenes such as the scene of shrieking eels or kissing scenes, the sick boy appeared and made me laugh.
In the movie, I could get a lesson that we always have to love others, and live kindly. Westley and his friends seemed to have a tough journey to save Buttercup, but at last,
they were the winners. Prince Humperdinck proved that bad person will fail someday.
This is the unchangeable truth of our life.
As a GLPS student, I found some leadership skills in this movie, too.
In the struggles of Westley to save Buttercup, I noticed that love is very important idea to lead people. Therefore, I'll try to treat others in love as Westley in the story did.
In conclusion, I would like to give 5 out of 10. Not very wonderful, but it was a fun movie.
This review is fine until the end; you say you found leadership skills in this movie, but you fail to mention them in detail.
