 Granddaughter recommended November 12, 2008

Well, it isn't the best Disney effort, but my 5 year old granddaughter loved it, so it's great as far as I am concerned. Who am I to second guess a five year old?
Sleeping Beauty is a Beauty November 11, 2008

Sleeping Beauty in Blu-Ray is well worth the purchase price. I highly recommend it, even if you have a earlier DVD version. The visuals are very sharp and clear. The sound is very good, but because I have a older sound system, I do not want to make any comprehensive comments on that subject.
Disney classic November 11, 2008

This is the movie that started me off on a lifetime passion for fantasy tales. I was in third grade when Disney released this film. Our school had a good citizenship program where once a month we would be allowed to go with some teachers to the local theater for a matinee. Usually, they were old black and whites starring talking mules and Our Gang cartoons. The matinees never quite held the same thrill as that day we were treated to a tale of magical kingdoms with fairies and witches where good conquered evil. I was instantly hooked and spent hours in the library searching for volumes of fairy tale books. When my daughter was born, I began collecting Disney videos and now I am starting a new collection of DVDs for my granddaughter. I hope that she will find them as exciting as I did. It is much harder to instill that magical experience now when the market is flooded with cheap imitations starring Barbie and smart mouthed zebras. It says much about the quality of the old Disney films in that they are still able to hold a young child spellbound after 50 years.

 Good movie for older kids November 11, 2008
I must admit, priot to buying this item for my wife and upcoming daughter, I had never seen this movie before.
The quality of the movie is insanely amazing. The visuals and color pallet have been fully restored to a quality that matches animated features currently in production. Same goes for the sound restoration.
But ... the content of the movie was a bit darker than I anticipated. I think, I may have to wait for my daughter to reach a certain age before she gets to watch this movie. Having the main villain "summon the powers of hell" just seemed a little too heavy for a younger audience.
But it was a good movie though overall.
