Review of Legend (1985) by Rory N — 09 Jun 2009

The most beautiful and visually impressive film ever made. Legend is a dark fairy tale that will leave you absolutely breathless and spellbound. Ridley Scott beautifully captures each scene. There is not a single second in this film that isnt completely breathtaking. This film is my all time favorite film. Tom Cruise is phenomenal in his best role of his career, which is surprising since this film was made before he became an international superstar. Mia Sara is beautiful, she is painfully adorable. Tim Curry is awesome as the villain. Legend is a film so spellbinding and mesmerizing, I couldnt believe my eyes. This film is a masterpiece.

Ridley Scott is one of my favorite filmmakers. He can clearly make a film like no other director in the history of film. Tom Cruise may be disliked for things that happen in his personal life but he is a superb actor who brings a lot to his characters. Mia Sara is one of the most beautiful actresses I have ever seen. She took my breath away every time I saw her. Tim Curry is a wicked delight in this film. His performance is spectacular and totally mind-blowing. The performances are sensational. This film is a classic.

Legend is simply the greatest film ever made and my favorite movie of all time. I have not one bad thing to say about this film. The films only downfall that I can think of, is that it only lasted for about two hours and not a lifetime. Legend is a film unlike any other.
