Disney reboot has fun playing on fairy tale stereotypes.

I'd only recommend it if you feel you'd like fluffy made-for-TV musicals.

Rated: 3/5

...ultimately overlong and forgettable, despite the best efforts of an exceedingly game cast.

Rated: 2/4

pretty harmless and almost wholly unmemorable, but considerably better than a lot of animated junk that's passed off as kiddie fare.

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

I think it would've been better if Zooey Deschanel was the main character.

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.
