A modern twist on several of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. The musical follows the tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel — all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.

    • Trivia
      At a Q&A session after a screening of the film, James Corden recalled an incident during rehearsals in which Meryl Streep jumped on a table and her foot got caught in her costume. She started falling backwards, head first, toward a concrete floor. Both Corden and director Rob Marshall froze in the fear that they were about to witness the death of Meryl Streep. However, a pregnant Emily Blunt stepped in and caught Streep before she hit the floor.

      The witch says that she cannot touch the ingredients for the potion, but she leans her hand on the cow as Jack is milking her.

      Cinderella's Prince: I was raised to be charming, not sincere.

    • Crazy credits
      The Disney logo appears without music and fireworks, and is flanked by forest trees and the full moon, reflecting the woods setting of the story.

    4/10
    An abundance of CGI can't wallpaper over bad music...
    ... and please excuse the mixed metaphor.

    This live-action Disney musical based on the Stephen Sondheim stage production was about as enjoyable for me as a root canal. A mash-up of various fairy tales (Little Red Riding Hood, Jack & the Beanstalk, Rapunzel, Cinderella, etc) set to near-continuous terrible music and slathered in overdone CGI. The all-star cast does their best, I suppose, but the only one who made an impression was Chris Pine as a knowingly shallow Prince Charming. Meryl Streep earned Oscar nomination number 19 for her turn as a witch, and she's okay, if a bit over the top. I usually like Emily Blunt and Anna Kendrick, and they are passable here, with Kendrick's vocal skills put to some small good use. Also appearing are the insufferable James Corden (who's currently busy butchering late night television), a poorly used Tracey Ullman, a couple of annoying kids, and a wasted Johnny Depp. Fans of this stage musical may find more to like, but I pretty much hated every minute of it.
