There  has  been a  lot of  argument  (flame? |-)  recently  here  about
spoilers.  I recall one person who picked on a review of LadyHawke which
gave away the  nature of the curses  as something which should have been
labeled spoiler but wasn't.  Well, LadyHawke came to our local repertory
theatre and I quote from their programme (for July 15):

7:00 LADYHAWKE
     D: Richard Donner (1985 U.S.A.) 121 min. (14)
     Michelle Pfeiffer, Rutger Hauer, John Wood,
     Matthew Broderick.
Set  in the  Middle  Ages  and  based  on  mythology of  that time.    A
beautifully photographed tale of a romance between a Princess (bewitched
into becoming a  hawk by day) and her  suitor, Navarre, who is cursed to
be a  wolf by night.  An impish, Puck-like boy theif (Matthew Broderick)
is the  go-between for these 'bewitched' lovers.  A magical,  fun-filled
adventure that is refreshingly well done.

     So it seems sf-lovers reviewers aren't the only guilty ones.
