Your Highness 2011

Your Highness (2011)    Thadeous (McBride) has always stood in the shadow of his older brother, Fabious (Franco).  Thadeous has lived a life of luxury but Fabious has been on many quests of adventure.  A powerful wizard kidnaps Fabious' bride during their wedding ceremony and the two brothers go off together to save her.  They meet up with Isabel (Portman), a fearless woman warrior who joins them on their quest.
    This is funny and it combines many aspects of different medieval adventure movies.  Thadeous, Fabious and Isabel really get into their roles and everything is over the top.  3 1/2* (I liked this movie)

102 min, Comedy directed by David Gordon Green with Danny McBride, James France, Rasmus Hardiker, Natalie Portman, Toby Jones, Justin Theroux, Zooey Deschanel, Charles Dance.

Note:  Blockbuster 3*, imdb 5.7 out of 10, 27% critic 37% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
