Goofs

Opening scene, after credits, a donkey drawn cart, rear view of cart reveals... a cream circular plastic reflector screwed to the back of the cart and to the right a registration number plate - very good, someone to idle to take them off for the shot - big spend on props eh? Hahaha ;)

User Reviews

strange

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.
