Another Disney classic off my list. The visuals were somewhat pleasing, but the story was a bit thin on the ground. I took issue with calling a child a “possession”, even a precious one, and Prince Philipp is awfully handsy when he meets Aurora for the first time, grabbing her again and again without her consent while she draws away (nevermind that they inexplicably fall in love later). I also thought the excessive drinking was a bit uncalled-for in a children’s film.
On the plus
side: the singing was beautiful.
2/5
