Reviews
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Cunninghamolga This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Kirpianuscus a flat version, nice for good intentions, conventional at all, interesting, maybe, only for the performance of Kenny Baker. but it is not surprising. because it is not easy to give the right nuances of the fairy tale with a modest budget. and this does this version comfortable because it has one duty - to remind, with few small innovations, the universe of the text of Charles Perrault. nothing more. and, having this as start point, it is almost unfair to have great expectations. each actor does a reasonable work, the Charming Prince is not the most inspired choice, Tahnee Welch is a nice Rosebud and the White Fairy an admirable example of kitsch. but this is it. so, nothing unexpected.
larisa-keeffe There's a very good reason why I decided to make this a 10. This has to be the worst movie I have ever seen. From the costumes, to the acting and even the singing, it was horrible. I loved every single second of it. The fact that Morgan Fairchild is in this and does a terrible job just makes it better. I like to think of myself as a connoisseur of Sleeping Beauty movies, and I've loved every single one of them. This one is absolutely no exception. If you love really bad movies as much as I do,this is the one for you.I did find it interesting that they took a turn from the well known versions of Sleeping Beauty and added an elf. However, the fact that they've used nine fairies as opposed to 4 is more in line with the written adaptation. So, in conclusion, two very enthusiastic thumbs up.
mike-e1 I recorded this for my 9 y-o daughter so she could watch it. She hasn't moved from watching it ....about an hour ago!The cast is good. There isn't a whole lot of dialog. The music is synthesized (not a true orchestral soundtrack) So...if that bothers you, like it does me....be forewarned.The songs are mediocre at best. If you have a musical "ear", the songs (and the singing) will sometimes make you cringe.On the up-side, the scenes are beautifully shot. Very colorful and the costumes are wonderful. However, like I said....it's a good movie for the little ones.
alexiawheaton69 This movie is so sweet and cute at the same time. You are always watching the film. It's a re-telling of the famous story, Sleeping Beauty. There's a little dwarf that summarizes some of the movie and he is well known for the voice of R2-D2 in the Star Wars movies. Tahnee Welch plays Princess Rosebud, she is the daughter of Raquel Welch and is known for her roll in Cocoon 2. The movie is the best of all the Sleeping Beauty movies I've ever seen. This movie is for all ages, I recommend that you rent or buy this movie. It is delightful at any time of the year.
