I went to see it. It is over the top and wonderful.
I only knew the songs before as I had never seen it on stage. I was really struggling not to sing along in the cinema.
Even if you don't like musical theatre just see Johnny Depp as the Wolf and the two princes singing their duet for some of the campest film you will ever see.
I do enjoy a bit of Sondheim.

"Really?? I was so disappointed with it. I found it really dull.
Shame, I like most of the actors."
I think it's always tricky translating mad stage musicals to film but I thought they made it so camp that it worked. I do think they could lop 20 minutes from it though. |

Can't wait to see it! When I did my English degree we were doing a module on fairy tales & my American professor (who loved musicals) showed us a video of a stage production of it, it was amazing despite the amateur recording so should be fantastic in the cinema! |

The songs are done well. It's really hard to stop yourself singing along. |

"I nodded off. Depp was good but in it for a mere 10 mins!
And I bet Flintoff and Rednapp will be taking the piss out of James Corden on 'A League of Their Own' for some time!
A"
I hope you were awake for the princes' duet.
