You have to ignore the overly aggressive music score (critic Pauline Kael aptly dubbed it "disco-medieval") and director Richard Donner's reckless allowance of anachronistic dialogue and uninspired storytelling, but there's a certain charm to the movie's combination of romance and heroism. Broderick plays a young thief who comes to the aid of tragic lovers Isabeau (Pfeiffer), who is cursed to become a hawk every day at sunrise and Navarre (Hauer) who turns into a wolf at sunset. The curse was cast by an evil sorcerer-bishop (John Wood), and as Broderick eludes the bishop's henchmen, Navarre struggles to conquer the villain, lift the curse, and be reunited with his love in human form. The tragedy of this lovers' dilemma keeps the movie going, and Broderick is well cast as a young, medieval variation of Woody Allen. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - True Love can't be chainedI cry everytime I watch this movie. I'm not much for the romantic boo-hoo films, but this one is an exception. It is heartbreaking to see what these two sacrifice just to be near each other. True Love is one of the most exhilarating and wonderful feelings you could ever experience. But it is also one of the worst kinds of pain you could ever feel. This movie really expounds on that truth. When you love someone so greatly and so completely you will stop at nothing to be with them, do anything ...

Rating: - LadyhawkeLadyhawke DVD. This is a great movie. I have watched it several times with friends and family. The acting is superb and the story line is excellent. Thourghly enjoyable. Highly recommended. AAA++++ Rating: - LadyhawkeI saw this movie years ago and have never forgotten it. I'm so glad I bought the DVD because now I can enjoy it over and over. While I am not fond of violence of any kind, this movie not only is a beautiful mystical fairy tale but also an intense love story that transcends throughout history. I adore Michelle Pfeiffer, and Matthew Broderick adds both the humor and endearing devotion to helping break the evil spell that will bring the lovers together again forever. This movie is a classic that will always ... Read More Rating:  - Fantastic Fantasy FilmI went back and watched Ladyhawke yesterday, and I have to say that this is a near perfect fantasy film. The story is outstanding. The characters and acting are solid. The one downside... the bloody music! It's not that the score is bad either. But it is dreadful WITH this film. I would LOVE to see a new version of this film without the crappy 80s synth that spoils the mood in far too many places. Browse for similar items by category:
