Funny and adorable
I love this movie!! Old, but a classic. There is one scary scene with a torture machine and another with a giant rat. But the other violence is alright. This movie has some great lines and is sooo funny! My mum and uncle love to quote bits of this to each other. Nice story of true love and planning...

Good for Kids.
I thought this movie was really good. There is a lot of violence, killing and gruesome things. Other than that it is fine. One b-word.

good for kids 9 and up
Yeah, I think language should be an issue because Inigo Montoya says "you son of a bi*ch". But overall, the movie was HILARIOUS and good.

Amazing family movie, but i would watch it before your kids depending on how much violence they can take
Unless your kids get really scared during blood or scary animals, this movie is a perfect movie. My brother, sister, and i love to watch it on road trips. this movie is a hilarious classic that is easy to quote, fun to act out, and a great family movie (trust me... i've done all of those things-and yes, i do love "princess bride" THAT much)

Awesome movie for 10 and up!
I LOVE this movie, but the b-word and the blood from both Indigo and Wesley's wounds make it good for 10 and up. Every one should see it, but use your own judgement about when your child should see it.

BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was FABULOUS!!! The best movie ever created!!!!! I adored it!!! Not only was it hilarious, it had a positive message too! Besides getting revenge. They rated correct- it deserves five stars. My favorite line is, "My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die!" And... "Think it'll work?" "It'd take a miracle." "Mawwwwwariage, mawwwwwwagriage is what brings us together today." I loved this movie! It was funny, I laughed (a lot) I cried, it moved me Bob. Ha ha! This movie was epic. Good luck trying to find a better movie than this! My favorite character is WESTLY!!! It's such a good movie!!!!!!!!!

Great for all ages
It's GREAT. I loved the movie, I watched it when I was little. I still love it, I watch it with a lot of kids I babysit. they all love it. it's interesting, it's about love, mostly. Buttercup and Westley. What's even better though is the book!

Unfunny, overly silly fairy tale parody for people with a bad sense of humour.
Seriously, this is a horrible film, and having to watch it in English class was a nostalgia-destroying experience. It is not funny, it is annoying, and the actors all do a horrible job. The story is also unbelieveably sappy. If it is trying to be a funny parody of romance stories (the Mideaveal tales kind, not the Russian novel kind), then it is doing a horrible job. I suppose some people might find it somewhat amusing, but I personally find this film really bad.

The Princess Bride
Inigo says SOB twice, there's a little bit of violence. The kissing scenes are not raunchy. The drinking references are limited. Some of the good guys have questionable motives, but overall they are all definite heroes. The villains, such as Wally Shawn, are awful role models, but then again, they're not supposed to be good role models, they're villains. Only Christians would be offended at the part where the kid says "Jesus Christ", they don't have the right to inflict their definition of profane on everyone else. This film will open the doors of imagination for young children, and the simplicity of the story makes it easier to comprehend. Also, this film is an excellent production, a classic.

A Real Good Time!
This witty, comical, romantic film is a sheer delight that proves that stupid can be good and fun. Though this film isn't the greatest, it's an adventure the whole family will love to see more than once.

A Swashbuckling Adventure for Kids
I originally thought this movie was going to be horrible, but my Dad then told me it was one of the best movies of all time. I then forced myself to sit through it, and to be honest, it was OK! The fight scenes were choreographed just right, and the dialogue was exceptional! It is truthfully a film worth seeing once, but it is up to you if you want to see it again.
