4/5
"The animation is -- as with all the early Disney's -- jaw-droppingly good."  Eye for Film  Amber Wilkinson

3.5/4
"The picture is so misanthropic that its happy ending feels more coma-dream than fairy-tale resolution"  Film Freak Central  Bill Chambers

4/5
"not exactly the type of movie you sing along to"  Filmcritic.com  Christopher Null

4/4
"Viewing it again for the first time in five years is like being reunited with an old friend."  Cinemaphile.org  David Keyes

B+
"Has grown better with age."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

3/4
"Suffused with celestial metaphors and flights of visual fancy informed by pre-Renaissance art, the economical story is played for cosmic pathos and staged as pagan ritual."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

8/10
"Sleeping Beauty has been regarded as a minor classic for too long. This restored edition should reinforce that it's a classic, period."  DVDTown.com  James Plath

6/10
"...a fine family film."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

5/5
"taken as a childhood adventure, you can't get much better than this film"  7M Pictures  Kevin Carr

A-
"Disney's last great fairy tale adaptation for more than thirty years, until Beauty and the Beast… a worthy successor to Snow White and Pinocchio."  Decent Films Guide  Steven D. Greydanus

10/10
"One of the handful of Disney features that can be rightfully called perfect."  Antagony & Ecstasy  Tim Brayton
