Watch Sleeping Beauty For Free

Very well executed

Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater

Must See Movie...

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

it seems be only expression of an actor to be director and impose his family to public attention. it is not important the manner or the plot, the acting or the script. more than not inspired work, Sleeping Beauty is chaotic. the dialogs are childish, the events without sense,each scene - expression of lost courage and ideas. a film like a family game who could be , at each step, only improvisation. and that fact is almost creepy. because the subject has a high potential. because the experience of Casper van Dien as actor could be basis of a better story. because it is only a film for the family and friends of director and the great question remains why the movie is on the big screen. more than uninspired film, it remains strange. because it has out of credible purpose.

I caught this in a store that sell's used DVD's and took a shot. Heck, for $2.00 I figured what's to lose?. Well, first there's that $2.00. Not to worry. I returned it two day's later for credit. This movie-and I use the term loosely-was so bad, I believe it should rank (pun intended) right up there next to "Plan 9 from Outer Space" as one of the worst waste's of celluloid ever. From the "directing" all the way down, this was unfit for anyone of any age. I got it mainly because I thought if Michael York was involved...well...maybe...no. He must have needed what little money they paid him for his narrative effort's. There are no spoiler's either expressed, nor intended. All I can say is where is Edward D. Wood,Jr. when you need him? Save me the aisle seat, please!! P.S.- I said there were no spoiler's. I was wrong. My entire critique was a spoiler.

how is possible to shoot a story-tail for kids 5-12years ... where a woman literally tears a head of with a spine attached there was long 5 seconds picture of this disgusting thing....if I could I would sue you bastards in a court of law ... hope that someone will ...shame on you you bastards :/there is a lot of bad movies that show how bad things can be and this peace of .... is one of it.... Imagine that you leave your kids with it and don't watch it ... you would not eve know why they scream at night :/ but now you know and you know whom to blame :/ at my copy the picture is 1:15:38 .... you can see it for yourself.

So, Casper Van Dien (of Starship Troopers fame) decided to feature his daughters in a fantasy story. And he expects us to buy this crap? Where do I start? Poor acting. It seemed like everyone, even Casper Van Dien himself wasn't serious about this movie. From start to finish, all I see are actors and actresses with expressions made of wood, vocal tones as stiff as a rock and movement/positioning as bad as a fish in a fish trap. It's like watching a high school theater production, except those are acceptable because they didn't ask for payment, much, this is supposed to make money. The only actor who actually made an effort (and way better than they rest) was the horrible Prince Jason. I actually cheered for him in all his horridness because the others all sucked.Bad directing. Not only is one actor/actress make such woeful effort, everyone was equally bad, some more than other, including Casper Van Dien himself. To think that this was Johnny Rico? The positioning of characters and the timing as well as actions of characters also showed that the director didn't have much of an imagination. For example, instead of having the evil queen fire her magic bolts at the guards to push them away, she could've just incinerate them. She's an evil queen, isn't she? Make her evil. This movie made the villain look pathetically powerless and not evil enough.Weak and corny script. There's not a single line of script that was at all inspiring. Most of them were very much annoyingly corny.Last, what with the way the actors/actresses fall when the curse started? The way they fell was not at all natural. It was as if they were told to fall down and they tried to find the best position to lie down without feeling tired/sore or feeling pain. You were sleepy, you were supposed to fall, weakened, so fall properly. Not even Casper Van Dien and his wife was at all convincing.Let's look at the scene at the river/lake (I couldn't tell for sure, they said 'lake', but the lake looked too small to be a lake, more like pond). You stabbed the water monster with a sword, wounding him, but there's not even a trace of blood on your sword? What, do all water monsters have water for blood? The lack of blood is a continuing issue. They killed many things, yet there was no sign of blood on their swords. What? Let's look at the part where the corpses burst out of the ground. Anyone with half a brain can see that the corpses were buried less than 1 foot below ground. Heck, they were probably just put in a shallow depression and then had dirt piled on them, like a new grave, instead of a grave that was supposed to have been there for years.The narrator did his job well, but then again, his voice was sparse. A good narrator does not tell a good story, at least in a movie.The only thing I can praise about this movie is the beautiful setting. I can see that much work has been put into making it, but the acting skills of the actors/actresses, the weak and corny script and weak directing make it all worthless.What are you doing with this piece of crap, Casper Van Dien?
