UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Davis P That is my favorite quote from this Disney classic. Disney really didn't shy away from being real and didn't try to stay completely G rated. And I love that about this film. Maleficent is an excellent villainous, she has the perfect evil look and the voicing is great too, fits the character well. The fairies are great lovable characters. I always forget which is which but I know they're flora fauna and maryweather, hope I didn't butcher the names lol. But anyways, the fairies that guard and look after Aurora as a child are very colorful and fun characters which makes the movie overall more fun and fitting for kids to love. Aurora is an alright Disney princess, I don't know she's just not a very good character to me personally. Now I did like Prince Philip as a character, he's a charming lovable male love interest. I would've liked the romance between Aurora and Philip better if Aurora wasn't so bland and boring as a character. Aurora really is the only part of the movie I just don't really care for. The rest is great and very entertaining. This is yet another Disney movie that I do recommend for a fun family movie night. The action is fun and engaging and I especially loved the special effects, they're the best when it comes to Maleficent. 8/10.
Hitchcoc Disney did so many great things that, for me, some don't quite catch me. Maybe it's the story. Maybe it's the music. Maybe it's a simple lack of the edginess that many of the great one's films often have, but there is something that isn't quite as sharp in this one. Also, I feel the animation isn't as crisp as many of the other films. The story, of course, is that a poor young woman is doomed to sleep for many years after a witch has been crossed. It's an example of how you can do everything you can, but fate steps in and messes with you. But it's a fairy tale that we all know, and things will eventually be dealt with. I feel very positively about this movie; it's just not my favorite. Hooray for Tchaikovsky.
Filipe Neto This film is the adaptation to animation film of the folk tale "Sleeping Beauty" by Charles Perrault. Directed by Clyde Geronimi, has a script by Erdman Penner and the voices of Mary Costa, Bill Shirley, Eleanor Audley and other voice actors.The story needs no introduction, as well as any comment to the script, which is basically a reproduction of the tale. Its one of the stories that accompanied the childhood of everyone, and that everyone learned and love. And there was no better way to immortalize it than let Disney do this film, with all the magic usually employed in his works. The dubbing work was very well done and the voices are excellent, the drawings were exquisitely made, the traditional way, as was done before the beginning of digital technologies. The soundtrack, from George Burns, earned the nomination for the Oscar and is excellent in every way, helping to make this film one of the most striking and romantic of Disney's career, and one of the most classic among the several classics that this film studio gave to the world cinema.Timeless, immortal like the story it portrays, this film will continue to be seen and admired for generations, regardless of age, culture or language.
datautisticgamer-74853 As my aunt's personal favorite Disney movie, I have absolutely no idea what to say about Sleeping Beauty other than the fact that I merely enjoyed it. The magic is stellar as always, and the action is satisfactory, but I didn't feel the "THIS IS THE BEST Disney MOVIE EVER!" vibe that I felt with Mary Poppins after seeing both of them. It might be a result of fantasy (as I mentioned, magic plays a major role, like the argument over a dress color) and action (Maleficent vs. Philip) that, in the style that it was executed, wasn't a particular trigger of my animation taste buds. The animation is just what we'd expect from Disney, but one case in particular caught my eye: Aurora. Specifically, Aurora was animated predominantly by Iwao Takamoto, who you Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. fans might recognize as the creator of Scooby-Doo. The style that Aurora was drawn in gave me flashbacks to when I loved The Scooby-Doo Show, and so even though that came 10 to 18 years after Sleeping Beauty, I enjoyed the film slightly more when I made that connection. If you're unfamiliar with Scooby-Doo and its style, then you might want to consider seeing that before viewing Sleeping Beauty. Not my personal favorite, but nevertheless worth a view.
