Unfortunately, the last act brings down the movie (it's dreadfully boring), but it has it's moments. Agony and Stay With Me are some of the highlights.

Indeed, was to give it a strong 9 until the last act . Not a very good ending. Predictable for sure.

I love every minute of it. It's this year's 'Frozen', an enchanted one. I adore you, Emily Blunt!

Maybe it's because it's a fairytale and there is singing, but... I LOVE IT.

W/ the very first words of the film spoken/sung by the actors, I knew that this was going to be practically unwatchable. The first song is horrible. It's not even a song. It's just normal speech being sung. It's terrible. The fact that James "Defender of the Most Useless Family in the World (the Kardashians)" Corden is narrating _and_ has an acting role really grinds my gears, as well. I can't, for the life of me, imagine these A-list actors wanting to be a part of this mess of a film. I couldn't even make it through the first abomination of a song, before I turned this off.

I found it rather boring. This isn't my kind of musical. I guess it's simply too classical/old for my taste. Both the story and songs/music didn't really interest me.

Too drawn out, 90 minutes might've been perfect.

I like the idea of 'Into the Woods', with its mash-up of numerous fairy tales from 'Cinderella' to 'Little Red Riding Hood' to 'Jack and the Beanstalk' to 'Rapunzel'. I'd also say the musical pieces are enjoyable across the opening 20-30 minutes, which are nice and energetic.

However, from the midway point things start chugging down to a snail's pace. The novelty of the premise begins to wear thin, as it becomes clear that there isn't much more to tell - despite a load of the 125 minute run time still remaining. I will say, though, the look of the film is pleasant.

I do also rate the casting. James Corden seems to split opinion online, but I've always liked him; having watched and enjoyed him since his career took off with UK TV's 'Gavin & Stacey'. Emily Blunt and Johnny Depp are two of my favourite actors, while Meryl Streep and Anna Kendrick are strong casts. I like Chris Pine too, but he's iffy in this.

In conclusion, I almost found entertainment with this but overall it disappoints due to its poor pacing and gappy plot.

An array of amazing actors star in this film from Johnny Depp, Meryn Streep to Emily Blunt. They all have fantastic voices and portray their characters well. I personally love this movie version of the musical.

The pros of this production are it's well cast, and a lot of the individual musical numbers are pleasant to listen too and gorgeously shot. The cons are that every change hampers the drama and humor of the stage production. When I see the stage show it makes me cry every time, with this I feel nothing.

It wasn't good... and it wasn't bad. It just was. But I liked some of the irony, even though some of the singing was annoying.
