Utterly captivating. A masterful piece of good old fashioned story telling. (0 more)
A grimm fairytale
I haven't been so completely drawn into a book since I read Michael Ende's "Neverending Story" (hell mend you Disney for what you did to that exquisite novel). This is a heartachingly tender story of childhood bereavement and bewilderment. The tale is so skillfully woven I walked every step of the story with the lost and lonely little protagonist.

A great, funny, charming family film. The cast of reasonable names (skinny John Cena Channing Tatum, Zendaya and the thoroughly detestable James F-ing Corden, boosted by Danny DeVito and others) don't detract from the story and make this a quite immersive enjoyable heart-warming family film. A Disney touch was added by including some songs that wouldn't have looked out of place in Moana or Frozen and helped keep the kids entertained.

Didn't hold my attention
I was really liking forward to this new adaptation of a classic story. Unfortunately it just wasn't very good. The beginning was interesting, but it didn't hold my attention for long. I think the main problem with this movie is that it lacked any form of character development. The action was great, but a movie needs more than that. Despite my high hopes the Disney version is still my favorite.

I'm rather fond of the Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck version.

Excellent fun bring the villian
I played Disney Villianous for the first time tonight since getting it as a present. The strategy is to complete your villain's goal before the other villains do. You can also mess with the other villains by making it harder for them to complete their goal. Had great fun and someone enjoyed it that much they bought their own copy as soon as we finished.

"Many people in the West might not be aware of how much this collection means to younger women across the Middle East. Not only each particular story, and sub-story, but also the very storyteller behind, the great Shehrazad, is inspiring. The style is playful, the themes both universal and daring. Forget the sugar-coated Disney version; there is a core inside this world classic that was, and still is, quite forward-looking."
