A Classy, Low Budget Entertainment, 13 August 2001
7/10
Author: tabuno from utah

"Starry Night" is a rather odd piece of work because it is obviously a very low budget film with mediocre acting and no name stars, however, the power in this story is its sincerity, its concept, and its simplicity. While never doubt that this movie is really bad in its performance mostly due to the budget I imagine, somehow the magic of the main character rubs off rest of the cast, and the movie becomes entertaining. Who cares how cheesy it is. I enjoyed the movie. It was entertaining. It had a feel good plot. It had suspense. I would recommend this fantasy because it had elements of truth and well it's too bad more movies don't have the heart that this movie has.
