ReviewsNew York Post - INTO THE WOODS thankfully retains most of its wit and bite, and showcases two of the year's very best female performances, from Streep and Blunt., The Hollywood Reporter - It benefits from respect for the source material, enticing production values and a populous gallery of sharp character portraits from a delightful cast., The Telegraph - The film is a whirl of pure pleasure that just keeps whirling: Sondheim doesnÆt write show-stoppers but show-surgers, and from the moment the glorious opening number whips up, introducing the central players, the film cartwheels onwards until it lands at its unexpected but quite beautiful happy-ever-after.
I would easily put this in as one of the top 10 films i have ever seen . Why Disney put this film out i'll never know . The plot , characters and especially the music and songs are dire . Buy it for someone you don't like . Mines in the bin .
Often films of musicals aren't as good as the original, but this is a very creditable version of one of my Sondheim favourites. The star-studded cast is excellent and I'd highly recommend it.
