Tracey Petherick Common Sense Media Disney reboot has fun playing on fairy tale stereotypes. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2020 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures I'd only recommend it if you feel you'd like fluffy made-for-TV musicals. Rated: 3/5 Feb 5, 2006 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...ultimately overlong and forgettable, despite the best efforts of an exceedingly game cast. Rated: 2/4 Jan 30, 2006 Full Review Christopher Null Filmcritic.com pretty harmless and almost wholly unmemorable, but considerably better than a lot of animated junk that's passed off as kiddie fare. Rated: 3/5 Dec 11, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Come On F A good family musical for anyone from toddler to grandparent age. Goes great back-to-back with Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella. Despite the release date, this movie is actually several decades older than it claims to be. The age of the actresses makes that a dead giveaway. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/17/22 Full Review Audience Member This movie is great! Its funny, doesnt take itself seriously, and all the actors are in on it. Except Matthew morrison he is DEAD serious. A GREAT watch Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a fun for all ages movie, I watched it at 5, loved it. Watched it again today at 19, loved it still. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member A fair adaptation of a fun musical. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member I think it would've been better if Zooey Deschanel was the main character. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm actually starting in this play in a couple month as Sir Harry. Pros: Two of the movies songs are alot of fun, I like a good majority of the characters, and it's got some good adult humor. Cons: The story drags out, it's really slow, some things aren't really explained, and some of the songs are completely forgettable. Overall, It's a cute and funny family movie.
