Disney Plus has added a bunch of new titles today, which should make for great viewing as we head into the week before Christmas. Among other things, the haul includes a star-studded musical that, despite being much-hyped when it came out a few years ago, is often overlooked nowadays. Seeing as it’s currently up on the streaming site, though, maybe it’s time for it to receive a reappraisal.
The movie in question is 2014’s Into the Woods and is based on the hit stage show from Stephen Sondheim, offering up a retelling of various famous fairy tales woven together, with a packed cast of A-listers bringing the mythical characters to life. The subplots all connect thanks to the overarching narrative which sees a baker (James Corden) and his wife (Emily Blunt) forced to venture into the dark forest to collect spell ingredients for an evil witch (Meryl Streep).

Disney Plus is adding an often overlooked Johnny Depp movie this week.
Among the new additions dropping on the Mouse House’s streaming service on Friday, December 18th is Into the Woods, the 2014 movie adaptation of the classic Stephen Sondheim stage musical. It did well at the time, but hasn’t had the prolonged life of other hit musicals from the last few years, so you may wish to check it out again once it becomes available to stream next weekend.

Roger Horchow, a Cincinnati-born entrepreneur who parlayed a luxury mail-order fortune into a Tony Award-winning streak as a producer on Broadway, died Saturday in Dallas of cancer. He was 91.
The founder in 1971 of he Horchow Collection luxury mail-order catalog, Horchow sold the company to Neiman Marcus in 1988, and by 1992 had won his first Tony Award as producer of Crazy For You, a “new” George Gershwin musical inspired by 1930’s Girl Crazy. Directed by Mike Ockrent and choreographed by Ockrent’s future wife Susan Stroman, Crazy For You was a smash, garnering awards and audiences enthralled by its classic Gershwin score and refreshingly contemporary style.

Into the Woods opened on Broadway in 1987, with the music and lyrics written by Stephen Sondheim and the book by James Lapine. It is Sondheim’s most performed musical and one of his best known works. The story combines familiar characters from childhood fairy tales such as Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and the ubiquitous Witch, and explores their journeys to get their wish, as well as the negative consequences of the small dishonesties committed by each character to get what they want. As the witch sings, “Told a little lie/Stole a little gold/Broke a little vow/Did you?/Had to get your prince/Had to get your cow/Had to get your wish/Doesn’t matter how.” As the story unfolds, the traditional dichotomies of good and evil, and our expectations of each character, are shaken.

Into the Woods is hitting on Blu-Ray March 24th, and this one has a lot of great bonuses. Of course, it’s to be expected from Disney, but beyond that, this is one that doesn’t even need a lot of bonuses. Check our Into the Woods review here for the full report on the film itself.
Among the bonuses are a commentary track, several behind-the-scenes featurettes, and a look at the cast.
Not only was this a really great movie (and I’m no huge musical fan), but it’s one that, like most things Disney, is going to go into heavy rotation.

Rob Marshall has had plenty of success in the world of musical motion picture. His 2002 film adaptation of Chicago won Academy Awards and boosted Marshall’s name into the Hollywood “it crowd” in the process. Following up Chicago with a lovely adaptation of the Arthur Golden novel, Memoirs of a Geisha, showed Marshall was an accomplished director who was capable of more than musicals. Those two films showed style, heart and confidence. Since then, Marshall has directed Nine, a less well-received musical in 2009, On Stranger Tides, the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie, in 2011, a film that many thought was unnecessary and failed in comparison to its prior instalments,...

It's taken decades for Into The Woods to get to the big screen. It might just have needed a few more years.
Musicals can be tough to adapt from the stage to film, but you'd think that Rob Marshall, who brought the genre into the 21st century with 2002's Oscar-winning Chicago, would be a safe pair of hands. Unfortunately, that's maybe too true of Into The Woods, a project that has flummoxed filmmakers for a good couple of decades.
The much anticipated film is based on Stephen Sondheim's play, mashing up a bunch of different fairytales to more subversive effect. In a magical kingdom by a great forest, a baker and his wife (James Corden and Emily Blunt) are desperate to have a child together. Alas, the baker is cursed with childlessness by the Witch who lives next door (Meryl Streep) over a quarrel with his deadbeat dad, (Simon Russell Beale.

Sophia Grace Brownlee somehow just added to her adorableness. The 11-year-old girl who rose to internet stardom after a video of her singing a cover of Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass” went viral has debuted her new music video called “Best Friends.”
Headed by music video director Matt Alonzo, Brownlee’s video showcases the little girl’s rapping talents with plenty of frills and flair, pink-hued attire, and girl power motifs. In the video, Brownlee invites a bunch of her gal pals over for a slumber party, singing “when stupid boys come around/Me and my girls shut ‘em down.” The girls raid the closet of Brownlee’s fictional mother before ending up on one heck of a Kmart-branded shopping spree and strutting down the runway of their very own fashion show.
Brownlee’s original Minaj cover video, now boasting over 47 million views, gained the attention of Ellen DeGeneres shortly after it was posted.

The trend for darker fairytale movies, with the likes of Snow White and The Huntsman and Maleficent paving the way, continues with Disney's Into The Woods, adapting Stephen Sondheim's award winning musical of the same name. What's different here though is that several fairy tales are mashed together, with the tale of a baker (James Corden) and his wife (Emily Blunt) cursed with being unable to bear a child by a witch (Meryl Streep). Sent into the nearby woods on a quest to break the curse, the couple find their paths crossing with several familiar fairytale characters, including Cinderella (Anna Kendrick) and her Prince (Chris Pine), Jack (Daniel Huttlestone) of Jack and the Beanstalk fame, and Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford) and The Wolf (Johnny Depp). With the movie beginning with each character exclaiming their deepest wish, Into The Woods goes far beyond the usual fairytale and actually shows...

Into the Woods is a modern twist on several beloved fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy), all tied together by an original story involving a Baker and his Wife (James Corden and Emily Blunt), their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the Witch (Meryl Streep), who has put a curse on them. Lou Lumenick, of the New York Post, has called the film “this century’s best musical.” Now you can explore some of the film’s musical highlights with a new featurette (see above).

Walt Disney Pictures released their new musical/fantasy flick "Into The Woods" into theaters this past Thursday. I just checked it out, and thought it was pretty entertaining and more comical than I thought it would be. It stars: Tracey Ullman, Frances de la Tour, Johnny Depp, Lucy Punch, Meryl Streep, Chris Pine, Emily Blunt, Simon Russell Beale, Tammy Blanchard, James Corden, Anna Kendrick, Christine Baranski, Billy Magnussen, Lilla Crawford, Daniel Huttlestone, MacKenzie Mauzy, Richard Glover, Joanna Riding, and Annette Crosbie. The movie revolved a couple of different characters and plotlines that all came together,full circle, towards the end. We saw Cinderella, wishing she could attend the King's festival, but instead, was treated like crap by her evil step sisters. Meanwhile, the baker and his wife wanted to have kids, but found out they were secretly cursed by the witch who had a unpleasant past with the baker's father.

It is not the fault of anyone involved with "Into The Woods" that in the time since the musical originally opened on stage, it has been rendered redundant. When it opened on Broadway in 1987, one of the things that made it stand out was just how much of a post-modern spin it put on the entire notion of happily ever after. In the decades since then, pop culture has turned into one giant "don't take any of this too seriously" wink, and fairy tales have been deconstructed so completely that it feels like this has been completely digested already. Besides, part of me is almost convinced that Sondheim just doesn't work on film. We're talking about a show that won the Tony for Best Score, Best Book and Best Actress, beating the 900-pound gorilla of the year, "The Phantom Of The Opera." Impressive, and it cleaned up at the Drama Desk Awards as well,...

Into the Woods is a rare film in today’s marketplace. A large scale movie, heavy with stars, that is also a musical. Some would argue that the age of the musical is well over with and why bother with that genre anymore? Musicals haven’t been main-stream for decades but recent history suggests that there is an audience for these spectacles during the holiday season as Les Misérables (2012), Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007), and Chicago (2002) all demonstrate. Into the Woods was directed by Rob Marshall who knows a bit about movie musicals as he also directed the aforementioned Chicago. The writer of Into the Woods is James Lapine who adapted the original stage play musical that he wrote with Stephen Sondheim (who you may have heard of).

Into the Woods
Written by James Lapine from the musical by Stephen Sondheim & James Lapine
Directed by Rob Marshall
USA, 2014
Normally, I’m a fair and agreeable chap who approaches each movie with an open mind. I must warn you, however, that my review of Into the Woods will be neither fair nor agreeable. I will not be fawning over director Rob Marshall, who seems clueless as to what his own movie is about, nor will I be singing the praises of Broadway legend Stephen Sondheim, who has probably written grocery lists more pleasing to the ear than these tunes. What I will be doing is trying to deconstruct one of my most grueling cinematic experiences of 2014.
So you’ve got this great idea.
You want to combine the four fairy tales, “Cinderella (Anna Kendrick),” “Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford),” “Jack (Daniel Huttlestone) and the Beanstalk,” and “Rapunzel (Mackenzie Mauzy),” into one big story.

Chicago – Neither Hollywood nor purely Broadway, Disney’s big-screen adaptation of the Stephen Sondheim musical “Into the Woods” finds a charming home on Hollyway.
Even if you’re not a “musical kind of person,” I challenge you not to want to sing along to the catchy tunes or laugh at the intentionally overdramatic comedy.
Rating: 3.5/5.0
Meryl Streep delivers yet another memorably kooky performance as the Witch while Johnny Depp is in his wheelhouse once again as Little Red Riding Hood’s Wolf on the way to grandma’s treehouse. Anna Kendrick also plays someone you’d expect: a runaway almost bride known as Cinderella who evolves from rags to riches and wants the prince but fears the royalty.
But the standouts are the 13-year-old Lilla Crawford – who has played “Annie” and “Billy Elliot” on Broadway – and a surprising Chris Pine. Pine is the only non-safe casting decision – where it feels...

After months of hype, Into the Woods, director Rob Marshall’s film adaptation of Stephen Sondheim’s Tony Award-winning musical, hits theaters on Christmas day.
Even though the film boasts an ensemble cast, most of the attention has been focused on everyone’s favorite actress, Meryl Streep, who plays a witch who inadvertently brings together many of Brothers Grimm’s beloved characters, including Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), and Rapunzel (Mackenzie Mauzy).
While bewitching, Streep doesn’t run away with the film. Sure, she gets to sing some of the musical’s best numbers--and she did get one of the film’s two acting nominations at the 2015 Golden Globes--but there are at least seven other A-list stars who make use of their screen time.
And with so much buzz surrounding Streep, the film’s best moments are hers to lose. With that in mind, we rank the scene-stealing potential of the ensemble cast from...
