Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Jesper Brun Sleeping Beauty is one of those animated Disney movies with some of the best elements ever created by them and at the same time it has drawbacks which stick out like sore thumb. But the greatness of the good stuff is so overwhelming and magical that you would be an asshole not to judge its greatness. Along with Bambi, Sleeping Beauty has the most gorgeous forest landscapes and a colour palette which demonstrates how much colour adds to the mood and impression of differen places, from the green and black of Maleficent's lair and her minions to the pastel colours of Aurora's castle. Speaking of Maleficent, she is bloody brilliant in almost every way. Of the fantasy based Disney villains she and The Horned King are my favourites. The Horned King's design surely is based on her's ;) About the characters: that's one of the movie's most polarising aspect, because the fairy godmothers are great and have the best lines in the movie along with Maleficent. The prince and Aurora are so boring! Our main characters barely say anything through out the movie, Aurora is put to sleep so she is forgiven, but the prince doesn't even utter a single line after saying "goodbye father" and goes out to fight Maleficent. Yeah, that's a major drawback, but everything else is so amazing that it outweighs the obvious flaws. If you like exeptional artwork, great music, entertaining side characters and all power of hell brought to you by The Queen of Darkness herself then you definitely must see Disney's Sleeping Beauty.

Hermione Granger This is a beautiful movie! From backgrounds to songs, this is a masterpiece. The backgrounds look real, Aurora is a beautiful singer, there is romance, there is adventure, Maleficent is one of the most dangerous and exciting Disney villains.... This is an excellent movie.Of course, it isn't perfect. There are some parts that are a bit dull and where I'm itching for the movie to become a bit faster, such as when Aurora is walking up stairs to touch the spindle or when the fairies put everyone to sleep; and meeting someone "once upon a dream" is a bit weird, but the song makes up for it, and those are not enough to make me keep from watching it! There are moments that give me sheer joy. I love the little-known song "I Wonder" that Aurora sings, and the movie is a beautiful and delicate story that is entertaining and worth watching.

Leofwine_draca SLEEPING BEAUTY is a Walt Disney animation that harks back to the golden age of the studio, before it became a populist sell-out for the masses. I'm no fan of these twee animations in general, but even I can admit that this is a well-made and well-animated production, questionable morals aside. Certainly the 1950s concerns of the day - presenting beauty as the main thing to be wished for by a girl - are dated, sexist, and old-fashioned, but this is also what makes the film an interesting time capsule.The film features one too many cute animals for my liking, and the handsome prince is a dolt. I found the protagonist rather smug and irritating. But the fairy godmothers are endearing creations and the use of the Tchaikovsky soundtrack is very good, although I would have preferred to listen to the straight music without the addition of the needless sung lines. Still, the character of Maleficent is one of the most striking in all Disney, and SLEEPING BEAUTY is a harmless enough piece of entertainment for the masses.

bts1984 This movie is triumphant in every sense of the word. And unique in many ways. Its artwork is not only different from everything that Disney did (before and after) but also stylish, delivering the medieval feeling it is supposed to. It took a long time to make this movie, even for the standards of animated movies. And it was a very expensive one to make either. But it was worth it. It is unquestionably one of Disney's most charming classics. It's majestic, charismatic, brilliant, funny when it has to be funny and spectacularly dark when it has to be dark.The music is nice, from the 1890 "Sleeping Beauty ballet" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to the theme "Once upon a dream".The characters are memorable, such as King Stefan and King Hubert, Queen Leah, Princess Aurora, Prince Philip, Samson the horse, the 3 good fairies and Maleficent.Prince Philip is perhaps my favorite Disney prince and his horse Samson is so funny. My favorite one of the 3 fairies is Merryweather because she is the funniest of the 3. Maleficent is a wicked witch or an evil fairy or simply «the mistress of all evil» as she calls herself, being one of Disney's most memorable (and sinister!) villains. She is particularly terrifying when she transforms into a dragon. The line «Now you shall deal with me, ol' prince, and all the powers from HELL» is all the more deliciously scary with the strong thunder sound it makes when she says «HELL».Title in Portugal: 'A Bela Adormecida'.
