Ladyhawke Ratings & Reviews
- tom_wenMarch 14, 2026First time seeing it today, so it seems a little dated. Overall, was a pretty good movie.
- KynnarFebruary 13, 2025An amazing movie and an instant classic - that's not that well known, surprisingly!
- falkerFebruary 1, 2026All of the things in this movie seem to not make sense if you wrote them down on paper or tried to sell it to a studio, but here we are. I can't understand how it all works, and yet it does. It's the right amount of serious and goofy (on top of the bonkers soundtrack). I somewhat can't tell how serious anyone is being either, which is why it's as good as it is? Sure. That sounds good.
- Edwina EkstromDecember 1, 2025I have just rediscovered this film after many years. It's a wonderful fantasy about cursed lovers Isabeau and Navarre and their quest to find salvation starring A very young Matthew Broderick as their friend and helper and a very young Michelle Pfeiffer and a young Rutger Hauer as the lovers. The story is so creative and engaging with a great creative solution to their plight. Just an enchanting watch for fantasy and romance lovers everywhere!
- parktool69November 25, 2025quite alright
- sopulaMay 29, 2025This is actually a sweet movie. Drags on a bit with them fucking around in the wilderness but overall a fun adventure and some sick 80's violence
- Plexxor the Pretty GoodMay 9, 2025The music of the 80's is just tough to get through. You must forward through the intro credits or you'll just stop the movie. Synthesizers were brand new, think VH's album 1984. Impossibly addictive love story with peak performers Michelle Pfeiffer, Rutger Hauer and a pre Ferris Bueller, Matthew Broderick. This is the movie of Renn Faire when it rains...not to be missed.
