With the 30th anniversary of its release being celebrated this year, Honest Trailers honors the film as only they’re capable of doing.
As pointed out in the video, The Princess Bride is, “the best sappy, swashbuckling medieval love story ever made.”
Really though, unlike some Honest Trailers, which rightfully rip apart bad and faulty films, watching this feels like watching a loving roast of a Hollywood legend.
Some of the cuts might seem pretty harsh, but they’re delivered in a way that that’s more honoring than hating.
