Legend

Back when I first heard about this movie I thought I would really like it. (Tom Cruise! Unicorns!) But in the intervening years, my interest has dwindled. Tom Cruise turned out to be short and weird, and unicorns are just too much trouble. But apparently my interest has not dwindled enough to keep me from forcing myself to sit through this movie.

So. It was not as bad as I expected, but I did find myself wishing I'd watched it when I was 12. I think I would have LOVED it back then. Now . . . I found I didn't pay too much attention to it. And, while Mia Sara looks absolutely perfect as a fairytale princess, I couldn't get past the idea that Tom Cruise looked like a frat boy in a tunic. But I did get lots of ironing done.
