Amazon.com Disney's 1959 animated effort was the studio's most ambitious to date, a widescreen spectacle boasting a gorgeous waltz-filled score adapting Tchaikovsky. In the 14th century, the malevolent Maleficent (not dissimilar to the wicked Queen in Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs) taunts a king that his infant Aurora will fatally prick her finger on a spinning wheel before sundown on her 16th birthday. This, of course, would deny her a happily-ever-after with her true love. Things almost but not quite turn out that way, thanks to the assistance of some bubbly, bumbling fairies named Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. It's not really all that much about the title character--how interesting can someone in the middle of a long nap be, anyway? Instead, those fairies carry the day, as well as, of course, good Prince Phillip, whose battle with the malevolent Maleficent in the guise of a dragon has been co-opted by any number of animated films since. See it in its original glory here. And Malificent's castle, filled with warthogs and demonic imps in a macabre dance celebrating their evil ways, manages a certain creepy grandeur. --David Kronke

  Great December 1, 2008 I received my movie in a timely manner and it's great!!! My lil lady gonna love this for xmas.. Thank you :)
  Brought me right back to the first time I saw it in NYC! November 30, 2008 As wonderful and magical as it was the first time I saw it with my big sister, feeling very grown up and traveling to NYC to see this fantastic movie.
  Sleeping Beauty (Two-Disc Platinum Edition) November 29, 2008 This was my favorite movie when I was a little girl because the princess's name is the same as mine. =-) I also enjoyed the tour through the castle. I'd forgotten all about that and it brought back some wonderful childhood memories. "Meh" for the rest of the extras but the movie is gorgeous and the artwork still holds up today.
  Great Classic November 29, 2008 One of my favorite Disney classics, and my daughter's! So glad they re-released this movie!!
