Ah, one of the all-time best. I've seen this movie so many times now, I think I have almost all the dialog; almost. Still find it funny, endearing and wonderful even the umpteenth time I see it. Like the Grandfather tells his sick grandson, it has everything ... "Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles..." Inconceivable! My Rating: 8.5
