What’s the story?
In the kingdom of Never Nod there’s celebration. A princess has been born to the King and Queen. Her name is Briar-Rose.
Unfortunately, that nasty witch, Evilina, who lives in Tumbledown Castle with a giant spider for a companion, is not invited. She shows up anyway and pronounces her revenge. At age 16, the princess will cut her finger on a spinning wheel and fall into a deep sleep from which she’ll never awake.
Some good witches counter the curse by saying the princess can be awakened by the kiss of true love.
The King bans all spinning wheels. Evilina is not so easily defeated and, on that fateful birthday, the princess does, indeed, cut her finger on a spinning wheel.
It’s up to Prince Alexander to come to Briar-Rose’s rescue — and the court’s too. They’re all asleep! The prince must fight a Wall of Thorns, a False Princess and, most frightening of all — the awesome Dark Knight!
This captivating, frolicsome version of the always-popular classic has it all — charm, action, romance, comedy, thrills, plus zany and lovable characters.
This could have been a really good movie. Although the movie has "Sleeping Beauty" in the title and there is a female that has been asleep for centuries awaiting a kiss; that is where the similarities to the traditional Sleeping Beauty end. The movie provides a great spin on the traditional fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty. The premise is that male bloodline of the Kaiser family has been the caretaker of sorts for the secrets surrounding the Sleeping Beauty. The characters are interesting and meld together very well. The movie progresses along very well and the story line does a very good job of keeping your attention up until the last 15 or so minutes and then it takes a nose-dive into, well, I guess hell. I can't believe someone, anyone, really sat there and said, "Hell yeah, that ending nailed it! Let's release the movie now before we change our minds."
Over the course of their conversation, Agatha began to weave her black magic around Benjamin. She cast spells and recited incantations, slowly molding his thoughts and desires to her advantage. Benjamin, completely oblivious to Agatha's dark intentions, found himself falling under her spell, unable to resist her enchantments. As the days turned into weeks, Benjamin started to experience strange sensations. He began to notice subtle changes in his appearance and demeanor. His voice became softer, his body became more slender, and he even found himself liking things that he once despised. Confused and frightened, Benjamin sought out Agatha, hoping that she could provide some answers. Agatha, feigning surprise, pretended to be unaware of Benjamin's transformation. She comforted him, assuring him that everything was as it should be. Deep down, however, she relished in her triumph. She had successfully turned a man into a woman, a feat that had never been accomplished before. As the months went by, Benjamin fully embraced his new identity as a woman. He became known as Beatrice and found solace in the acceptance of the villagers. Agatha, satisfied with her creation, reveled in her power. She had proven once again that her magic was unmatched, that she could bend anyone to her will. However, even as Beatrice flourished in her new life, she couldn't shake off the feeling that something was not right. Deep inside, she knew that she had been manipulated by Agatha, that her transformation was not of her own free will. With a newfound determination, Beatrice set out to confront Agatha and break free from her spell. Using her wit and newfound strength, Beatrice devised a plan to defeat Agatha and reclaim her former self. She studied ancient texts, sought guidance from wise elders, and honed her own magical abilities. Finally, the day arrived when Beatrice was ready to confront the witch. In a symbolic battle of wills, Beatrice faced off against Agatha. She summoned all her strength and channeled the forces of good to overcome the dark powers of the witch. With a final burst of magic, Agatha was defeated, and her spell was broken. After the battle, Beatrice vowed to use her newfound knowledge and power for good. She became a guardian of the forest, protecting innocent villagers from the clutches of dark forces. The villagers rejoiced, grateful for Beatrice's bravery and resilience. And so, the story of the witch who turned a man into a woman ended with a triumph of good over evil. Beatrice, once just an innocent wanderer, became a legendary figure, inspiring generations to rise above adversity and reclaim their true selves..
