It felt as though the story was on fast forward for those who'd read the (much better) novel. And, perhaps to me the strangest decision of all -- probably in an effort to succeed at number two (see above) -- they didn't include the amazingly powerful closing scene of the book. Highlight of the film for me? Sam Elliott as Lee Scoresby. Perfect casting. Stardust was the better film. Wish it had had Golden Compass' marketing budget. Pass on this one.   1     2     3   Non User
