“Into the Woods” is a modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm 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, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel-all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.

YCKFides Try Princess Diaries 2. He's a sweetheart in that one.
He would roll his eyes if people talked about him like that
Anybody else here agree that people are messed up in the head because they're complaining that there's too much singing. It's Disney there's always singing!!! Plus this is a musical, you should expect singing!!!
There's another Disney musical coming this Thanksgiving. MOANA
+pbscraze excited?
Big time

YES! ME TOO
Just saw this movie a couple hours ago. Here is my opinion: Everyone in this movie should win Oscars for singing and acting and all in all making this film one of the only good musical-movies, especially Meryl Streep. This is one of her greatest achievements, singing and acting-wise. And Emily Blunt too. Overall, the message of this movie is clear and true: Be careful what you wish for, because sometimes if you want something bad enough, you will do anything to get it, telling yourself that the end justifies the means, without giving one thought to the repercussions. Lilla Crawford was her usual sterling self, just as mind-blowing as she was in Annie, maybe even more.James Corden was pretty good. I LOVED the scene where Chris Pine and Billy Magnussen performed "Agony", where, instead of making it sad and depressing, they made it overly dramatic hilariously. Chris has got an impressive set of pipes. Anna Kendrick was VERY good at singing Cinderella, but she didn't really play the part of the damsel in distress. Nothing wrong with that, though. Johnny Depp was awesome. MacKenzie Mauzy was okay. She didn't act and/or sing that well, but maybe that's just because she was surrounded by people who were AMAZING. Daniel Huttlestone was good. Sang quite well, and not bad at acting. So all in all, I'd give this movie a 5 out of 5.
Why the sudden posting of this stuff? I think it's nice, I'm just curious why.
Oh, I see.
Story line is so bad I can't bear to watch the movie. The play was bad enough.
I've been thinking about that film, the more I realise that johnny depps character was basically a pedophlie
chris pine was generally an embarrassment but i agree the rest did really well, especially the two kids.
Is that James corden?!
Yep
The baker.
Yeses it is
Sarita Conhye Yes

"Nobody said Into the Woods was a musical!"
-every stupid review
and yet there is singing. In the trailer. Very clearly. Musical theatre singing.
To be fair, 2 of the 3 trailers featured no singing at all, but you really should do research on something before you go see it/review it.
I took my mom and my best friend to see it and they both went "Wait it's a musical?!" I wanted to cry. It's not only a very famous tony award winning musical. It has singing in the trailer. What is wrong with some people.
I just reached an epiphany on the philosophy of the movie: The importance of going out, taking risks, and learning from your mistakes/experiences. Even though Red got eaten, and had to be saved, she appreciated her experiences, deviating from the path, and then started walking with a knife. Rapunzel snuck around, and learned that she could love someone more than she did her "mother", and that the way her mother showed her love, wasn't healthy. The boy was supposed to simply sell the cow for money, but he instead bought a magic bean story, that turned out to be true, and gave him enjoyment, for a while, before everything went to shit. The witch was in strict pursuit of good looks, but even after she got them, learning that she'd just lost her daughter's love, due to neglecting her happiness for all those years, was enough to make her go mad. Cinderella discovered love, but also betrayal, strength, and independence. The Baker's wife goes and acknowledges that she may desire someone other than her husband. The Baker's misadventures lead him to forgiving in his father, and forming an instant family.
I also love how it's truthful in saying "Yeah, taking risks could yield negative results, but one CONSTANT positive, is that you'll learn, and grow from them (unless, of course, you choose not to)."
Maybewise? You are wise to know that!
Please stop being so wise it hurts my brain XD
people are so angry because it has a lot of singing
well this movie is a musical you should understand and search it before you complain but i really love the movie because the actors are great and theyre singing is wonderful and amazing and it really impressed me when red riding hood started singing!!!! and the boy too.
Let me get this straight; we've got Sophie, Beca, Gavoche, Annie, Jack Frost, Sweeney Todd, Madame Maxime, and Robin's mother all in one movie
To all of you complaining; Sondheim himself worked with this movie and he's pleased with it. If he's pleased with it, all of you should be pleased with it. It's going to be amazing!! ♥
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
That didn't stop people from hating Sweeney Todd.
kaminasbro8000 wasnt that a tim burton film though?
He also punked out and let Disney do more than a little "family friendly" editing.
magicamadeye Based on a Sondheim musical
"You wish to have the curse....reversed?"
Go to Meryl Streep.
Yes, Meryl Streep can do anything. **worship**
i was young when this movie was released i dolid not realise those are BIG stars out there.
Please don't suck. Please don't suck. Please don't suck.
I've heard conflicting reports. I remember the rumors that some stuff was gonna get cut and sanitized, then the damage control where they were saying that no, all that stuff's staying in. Disney's surprised me before, so...fingers crossed.
But the Wolf looks dreadful.
***** Apparently she wont die, but the ending they give her is "Just as dark and harrowing, but in a different way." So who knows...
It won't. It won't. It won't.
***** While she won't die in the film, she's still supposed to have a very tragic and sad ending in the film. So I wouldn't worry.
As long as they are going by the original Broadway version and not the family version they did.
SO glad Meryl's doing another musical! her voice is amazing
Emily Blunt, Anna Kendrick, that's enough for me.
One of the things I love about this musical is that it doesn't take itself too seriously and the characters often break the 4th wall. Judging from the way the line "how uneasy I feel" was delivered, I'm worried this cast didn't get the memo.
I AM SO PUMPED.
ME TOO!
craig!
Darcy Harrison XD I noticed that, too! Craig... What are you doing here?
Tessa!!!!!!
Tessa I love u
I'll watch it just for James cordon he keeps talking about it haha
I will never understand the people who cry and bitch at the lack of diversity in movies. There are also the people who cry and bitch when movies change things (as in the race of a character). I mean, all of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales are set in Germany, which consisted of mainly white people. I understand if it's a random movie that has only white characters, but the origins of these fairy tales make it necessary to have a white cast.
People who demand a diverse cast mess up things too. An example would be the upcoming Fantastic Four movie. The origins of the Fantastic Four are an all white cast. So, what do we do? We make the Human Torch black! But wait a minute... the Human Torch and Invisible Woman are siblings. "Oh no problem. It's possible. He could be adopted." Unnecessary changes are upsetting.
Same! I can't stand it when hollywood decides to make remakes of Japanese movies set in Japan with european actors either - it just doesn't match the story!
***** What I was trying to get at is if people want a diverse cast, they should start from scratch. Build an amazing movie with diverse characters. It happens quite often. Changing the origins of characters is upsetting to those who like those characters and grew up with them. I'm not expecting much diversity in the upcoming Marvel movie "Black Panther". Why? His origins are in Africa. Lord forbid Marvel changes a black character white.
If one of your favorite characters were changed due to "lack of diversity" would you complain? I am pretty sure you would. Never said it wasn't okay to cry and bitch, did I? I only don't understand the people who do it when there is a lack of diversity. Make sure you actually read and understand my comment this time.
Lily Jars"I can't stand it when hollywood decides to make remakes of Japanese movies set in Japan with european actors either - it just doesn't match the story!"
Have you seen the Manga or anime. They all look like westerners.
Benjamin Abruzzo They look westerns for you, for japanise people they tottaly not. They doesnt even think about they are not asians.
Also they have those big eyes, because mostly that what can show emotions on those really simple drawed faces. So thats not a good point of view.
Devine Weirdo "They look westerns for you,...they have those big eyes, "
The have those because the earlier works were trying to copy older Disney characters with the large eyes and silly movements. The evolution from that to today, I couldn't tell you, but I've seen live action versions of some of the anime and it is very much not Asian characters. I mean, the characters that say "I'm from such and such but now live in Japan" are pointing out they aren't Japanese because you can't tell the difference.
But the point is very much accurate: if a remake of a Japanese film looks like characters from an Anime, with blonde or red hair, wide eyes and body proportions that are found more in Europe, why would it matter that Hollywood changed them?
My opinion: It is one of the first Disney movies that doesn't have all those cheesy comments...
This actually has a good story and its not about boyfriend drama and girl problems...
The music is incredible!!! 😃
They have a few songs that they could've taken out but for the most part they did great! 👏
I've seen it 4 times and theaters and am hoping to own when it comes out on DVD March 24th!!! 😃
I know this is an old comment but I still wanted to say that the whole movie is based on a stage play and they have the same songs as the play minus a few :)
i just came here for James Corden
Same lol
i came for anna kendrick
same lol
i came for james corden because omg i din't know that he was in a film
and for jonny Depp and Anna kendrick
Hmmm I wonder if Disney will make this Into the Woods as brutal and violent as the real play
Lol i reallllly hope it's good
the trailer seems to be going for that tone which is hopefully a good sign. we'll have to see but I really hope it turns out well
They're going to lay off the pederastic tones of the wolf/little red story because little red is being played by an actual minor and that would be weird.
And they're significantly softening the Rapunzel storyline. She doesn't die. Why? I don't know. Everybody else who dies, dies. But I guess one more would be too much for the kids? I suspect it's because Disney's Rapunzel movie is still really popular and they don't want to ruin her character for the kids, who have no concept of there being different versions of folklore. I don't know for sure whether she'll get pregnant, either. I doubt it.
***** How do you know all that? is it like in an article somewhere or something?
***** actually they re-added rapunzels death from what i heard,
sondheim wants this film to be as accurate to the play as possible
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE SINGING IN THIS TRAILER!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!......I'm happy
It's funny because when I first watched this movie, I had no idea what to expect and I also didn't know it was based off a musical so when they started singing in the movie I was just like "Wait, this is a musical??" XD
Stephen Lee they literally are singing in the trailer. How didn't you know it was a musical before seeing it?
@@barrywhite3660 Some people don't watch the trailer. Also, he made this comment in 2016... after the movie came out
Some many good actors!
Oh my gosh the funniest part about scrolling through the comments is people saying, "It's too dark" "there's too much singing"
People. This was a stage musical before Disney made it live action.
Not every stage musical has this much singing.
I can't understand why everyone hates this movie. There was so much crap in Cinemas recently which was considert to be great but this movie is supposed to be bad?! I LOVED IT! I'm not the biggest Musical Person but the singing fits so good to the whole atmosphere! The actors are great (especially Meryl), the soundtrack is awesome, very good costume and set designs and good songs with thoughtful lyrics. Yeah it has its weaker Points: to much singing and second half was a bit boring but is that a reason to bash this masterpiece down? People want something different and when they get something different they hate it! Gosh! Just stay with your Michael Bay Shit!
Because the heroes end up being a bunch of murderers and practically assist the kid who is the cause of the entire drama of the last act.
I don’t mind musicals. I think musicals work when the songs are catchy, fit into the story, and aren’t dang AUTO-TUNED!!! Seriously songs from the old days weren’t auto-tuned which is what makes them catchy in my opinion.
Because it's a musical and musicals are weird. Who breaks out into song and dance in real life? Even movie life it's weird. lol
We hate it because the actors and singing all perfect and ruined by a director who flubbed the pacing and completely destroyed the symmetry the stage show has between act 1 and 2
Hate has nothing whatever to do with this first rate movie. To have brought the stage musical to life on the big screen like this has been an unexpected achievement comparable to no other.
So many legends are in this film, I can't believe I haven't watched this yet, I really want to!
i watched the trailer years ago when it just came out and i've finally got to watch the movie this year on disney+ and it was such a masterpiece
I just watched this movie yesterday and it was epic! I say my favourite character is Meryl Streep as the witch because of her voice. and also she was in Mamma Mia witch was the movie I grew up with
wait, where's rumple ,and.. regina .. and . hang on... SORRY. wrong universe, carry on!
Yeah, bc it was made like 20 years ago as a Broadway musical
This trailer nearly brought tears to my eyes. It definitely sent chills up and down my spine. This 'Into The Woods' trailer is certainly proof that Disney and Nintendo should get together to make a 'Legend of Zelda' movie as if 'Wreck It Ralph' and 'Brave' weren't enough incentive already. Imagine Majora's Mask as a movie!
Give Meryl another Oscar! She gives me chills! She is perfection.
i hate musicals , but i think im going to watch this anyways
thanks to johnny deep that i think is the best actors of all time
The ending was really fucking dark with the wife dying after the prince kissed her. but I found the whole film generally entertaining.
This film isn't as bad as people say it is, actors were amazing!
My daughter met the woman that played Little Red Riding Hood 2 days ago got a selfie with her aswell and a hug
Always a favorite Sondheim musical!
*Into The Woods* on the silver screen, this Christmas Day is looking to be FANTASTIC!!!
Did you catch that tender solo by Meryl Streep?
#IntoTheWoods #StephenSondheim #NowPlaying #Disney #musicals
sondheim always rubbed me the wrong way
When I first heard Sondheim, I had the same reaction, but then I found that I could not get his melodies out of my head -- his use of dissonance is unconventional, but total genius.
True. Its because of the dissonance that it keeps it in mind. Problem is that I never feel resolved and the tension always hangs. Leads me to listen to more wordy wordy Sondheim.
Leon Shaner it took me six months of listening to other musicals to get the songs out of my head
If this is your favorite why are you excited about it? They are basically gutting anything that can be considered controversial or "inappropriate". They are going to destroy his work.
I saw this movie 11 times I love it so much
If this wasn't a musical...that'd be great.
Musicals aren't that bad per se, but what really annoys me is when musicals are played by glorified actors, as in the case of Les Miserables (2012). OMG! It was horrible - the singing was really bad. Maybe I had an ear infection when I watched it because I can't see why people liked that version so much. This movie doesn't look that bad, but they only showed one person singing and I don't know if I should be ignoring those red flags in my head right now.
Into the Woods IS a musical and has been for over 25 years. If it wasn't a musical, it wouldn't be Into the Woods! Get your hands on a film copy of the 80s Broadway production with Bernadette Peters and revel in the glory!
Meh, I'm not into musicals since Highschool musical...oh god disney what happened?
This is an ACTUAL musical, as in Tony winning musical.
Leonard Church you're judging musical as a genre after highschool musical? you can't compare into the woods with highschool musical, they're on completely different levels
THIS is what Cinderella should look like.
I just saw this movie and my dad complained how there was a lot of singing. But it turns out a guy who was very good with Broadway musicals helped in the making of this movie. And honestly, some of the songs are actually pretty catchy in my opinion.
"I was raised to be charming, not sincere." Why did that make me swoon? Probably the tone of his voice.
I heard that. My heart stopped...Chris Pine is gorgeous
I don't like his delivery of that line based on the trailer. On stage, its one of my favorite lines, make me laugh every time (I own the DVD of the Broadway cast).
Best delivery of that line I have ever heard. Not "hammed up" in any way.
Are you referring to the movie or the stage version?
Movie version. Although I still love the stage version. Robert Westenberg was absolutely hilarious.
Never seen the musical, but I love the actors here and it looks enchanting. Christmas, let's hurry, shall we?
Hey, good news! Fortunately, someone had the bright idea of taping Into the Woods for television while it was still on Broadway, and that recording is now available on Netflix! So, if you have a netflix account, or know someone who does, maybe you might want to give it a watch. Either way, I can't wait for this movie.
I wish I could've watched this movie in theaters, but when I look back, I realize I wouldn't have been able to rewind it. I really liked this movie. I especially liked the "Your Fault" sequence they did. This movie was just great.
"It wasn't advertised as a musical."
Literally half of this this trailer has the singing. Granted, they do use a lot of talking lines, but it's not advertised as a film with no singing.
Also, I think they could have gone without the second half of the movie (with the giant)
The whole movie is very theatrical, more like a play than a movie. Idk. XD
good observation about the existence of the "halves". i interpreted that as the wedding scene being a fake out. it felt like the traditional Happily Ever After ending, but the actual ending flips the script, so to speak.
Well, it was originally a stage musical. While I am familiar with the original myself, I've always thought the first half was a lot better than the second with the giant.
Without the second half, the musical wouldn't have the message it's supposed to have.
It was originally a broadway musical, they just made it a movie and they had the same songs as the play.
I dont like the birds blinding, the sisters etc , fairy tales are quite dark mind you sondheim did sweeney todd ,w as i expecting sugar and spice
I have been waiting for this movie to be release in DVD. I missed seeing it in theaters, and today I will have the opportunity of OWNING IT FORVER. I'll never get tired watching and replaying this movie. Excited for Anna Kendrick and Chris Pine team-up.
I physically and emotionally need this movie right now.
You and me both!
I don't know what's not to get about this movie. (SPOILER well... a little) These characters goes into the woods to perform tasks to fulfill their wishes (via magic). Once completed, they soon found out that their wishes had consequences and didn't really bring true happiness. They learned the only way true happiness can be found is by hard work. The film Pinocchio says "go ahead wish upon a star", Into the Woods in completely opposite saying "be careful what you wish for".
There were lots of characters to develop so the film may seem long, but it was portrayed pretty well. (There were a few parts that could be improved imo). It was advertised to be a musical too so I don't see why ya'll upset.
Finally! Someone who gets it!
One problem: that's not what Pinocchio happens in Pinocchio. He has to work for his end.
So like Coraline motto " Be Careful what you wish for"
My favorite movie... Into the Woods will never get old :)
OMG! I knew Disney would come out with an amazing Christmas (kinda) movie!! SO EXCITED
OMG I just saw that Johnny Depp is in it... YES!!!!!!!
I only watched the movie because Meryl Streep was in it but overall it was awesome and the songs are always stuck in my head😍
I loved this movie so much. I can't believe people actually left the theater as soon as they started singing
*SPOILER ALERT*
This was a bit darker than I expected, there were really no negative characters in this story, well except the wolf... Everyone had their vices, like for example the red rising hood and her kleptomania... But no one was bad.
Meryl Streep was truly MAGNIFICENT in the role of the witch and I was really surprised that she dies in the end...
Anyway, this is one of those movies that you just don't want to end!
Amazing film! And keep in mind that I don't like musicals AT ALL (although I'm gay :P )
-=AngelGr=- The wolf did show the little joys in life we miss when we rush too fast.
ya
Spoiler alert! ;_;
So true:)
I absolutely loved it thank you so much God been waiting for this movie for so long thank you so much again
Was a brilliant film! Heart felt musical, full humour and lots of dark themes and good morals; mostly that there is no set right and wrong, but many different sides, yet you must just follow your own. You will always have someone on your side and your enemies with always have someone on theirs. Great star cast. I'd recommend it.
I went to go see this movie yesterday with a couple of friends, & it was amazing! I would definitely watch this 117293928332292 more times. After leaving the theatres, I was stuck in this Into the Woods phase. All I did was go home, & look up the songs from the movie. I have seen the Broadway musical before, & enjoyed that one as well. Disney did really well creating it into a movie. It's totally worth watching! This is a musical production, so beware that there will be singing every second! I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE. You will leave the theatres humming to some of the tunes. This was incredible, enough said.
Apparently this musical is not for everyone!!! If you expect a classic Disney candy spoon-fed movie, then you will be disappointed, because it won't be! Let me remind you that this is Stephen Sondheim and for sure you will get mind-fucked if this is the first time you ever listen to his music. Let alone the story line is pretty complicated which is supposed to mirror our actual lives. You'll be able to enjoy the movie if you know what you're coming to see. Otherwise, you'll be lost and butthurt like bunches of people below.
_Let alone the story line is pretty complicated which is supposed to mirror our actual lives._
loved this aspect of the story most. i haven't seen much talk about family structure, the other central theme in the movie. i don't think it's a coincidence these characters were chosen--characters from fractured homes (dead parent(s). the traditional (simple) ideal of family is it consists of husband + wife + their own children.
instead, the family created at the end is a single father, 2 kids he "adopts" in a sense, and a live-in nanny..erm, whatever Cinderella could be called. that def' reflects the complexities of the modern family.
I saw this movie 8 times in theaters. Needless to say, I LOVED IT!!!
Seen this movie yesterday and I gotta say it was amazing. Good job Disney!
Into the woods is a tony award winning broadway musical written by stephen soundheim (also the writer of Sweeney Todd). Yes it is a BROADWAY MUSICAL. Which means most of it IS SINGING! Source - ( We performed it in my junior year of high school in spring of 2008)
1:55 Prince Charming what are you doing with the baker's wife? Where's Cinderella? & on another note Chris Pine looks so fine as Prince Charming, just saying lol. He and Anna would make a cute couple.
Weren't you paying attention? He was raised to be charming, not sincere. >:-)
Keith Campbell LMAO, that phrase will live on!!!!
MsGnor, it's one of the best lines in a play chock full of brilliant lines. Sums up the character perfectly. >:-)
The wife is a white, that's why she died
Attention seeker Alert
I absolutely adore this movie.
I was watching this while I high and I sing along with 'em
Lotfie Lysander no
Can't wait to see what they've done with the musical. They sure have got a brilliant cast. Definitely one of my most anticipated movies of the year.
Meryl Streep's voice... It's just beautiful
It's weird because I actually dislike musicals, yet this was one of the best films I have ever seen. I wasn't sure if I would like it but all the songs are catchy and it's easy to follow the story line. I also love Johnny Depp so hearing him sing was great! :D
It’s not supposed to be catchy, Sondheim didn’t so catchy. His songs are more thoughtful, adult, and complex (musically and emotionally)
This trailer makes me teary eyed. I don't know the entire plot, but the jest is that whatever you wish for never turns out how you expected. This pulls my heart strings because i would wish for me to happy and to love myself, but it can ultimately turn into something evil and corrupt. Even if i am given the chance to be given happiness, it would be taken away from me. What kind of life is that? To be told that you will never be worthy.
Ah, but it's more complicated than that. ("Wishes may bring problems / such that you regret them / Better that, though, than to never get them.") And you have some power over the outcome -- the end result hinges on how you tell the story. :-)
"Careful the wish you make
Wishes are children
Careful the path they take
Wishes come true, not free
Careful the spell you cast
Not just on children
Sometimes a spell may last
Past what you can see
And turn against you --
Careful the tale you tell
That is the spell . . ."
***** Ah, but change does not happen over night. It takes time, effort, and revelations. When someone starts to make change, it comes with struggles. With turmoil, strife, doubt. When someone claims they want change for themselves, to find happiness and love, they may be undergoing the effort to create that change, along with the trouble emotions that come with it. As long as they are committing themselves to improve, that is what matters because it can take years before they're done.
Aquoknight Dear Aquoknight , Thank You for this brief, yet meaninful exchange here with Keith Campbell. It is so perfect and kind. Infact your choice of words touched me...as I am going through a life transition and Yes, what a struggle some of us must push ourselves through painfully, and joyfully to the improved self. If you are a writer...write more. And if theTrailer got you misty, I suggest getting the sountrack or Cast Album recording. The choice of words go deep. Stephen Sondheim who wrote the words and the music for Into the Woods also has a special way of connecting the feelings of the music to match the characters feelings in the story. It's nice to see a thoughtful exchange in this UA-cam comment section. Keep doing what you are doing..it helped me today! Cool.
In my University they put on this musical last year and it completely blew my mind! It's a fantastic story and when acted well is breathtaking!
I already watched this xD Its beautiful :')
Cool. I'd watch it.
Frikking Johnny Depp.
Earthbound Rebirth
and ugly
Isabel Gandarillas ... What?
Sons of serendip
I watched this movie with my mother and sister and can honestly say that I loved the movie, it had its humour, dark themes and musicality aspect of it which I though was good, it is a great movie to watch with the family
I can't believe that Into the Woods was about turn into a movie back in the early 90's like after the Broadway version was perform. Columbia Pictures and Jim Henson productions have already cast actors to be in the early production-- Robin Williams as the Baker, Goldie Hawn as the Baker's Wife, Cher as The Witch, Danny DeVito as the Giant, Steve Martin as the Wolf and Rosanne Barr as Jack's mother. In 1997, Billy Crystal, Meg Ryan and Susan Sarandon were in the talks to be in the film. But everything have fell apart and be held for the film to be made for a long time. Imagine... what if Into the Woods was made back in the 90's. Would it be better than the one was made back in 2014?
I love sooo much Meryl❤
Anyone else already have that last song relentlessly stuck in your head?
I finally got to see the film, and absolutely loved every minute of it! My favourite Disney film so far, by a definite!
everyone is complaining about the musical. did yall forget that every disney movie is all about the singing??!!
Ye but not ever 30sces it's crap
exactly. I had no idea most people didn't even know this was a broadway musical like 30 years before it was ever a movie?? They were just paying hommage to the musical. If you have ever seen the play it has more songs than what is in the movie. It's not like disney sat down and decided to write all the songs and the story, just basically translating it to the big screen.
Chris Pine keeps impressing me with his performances. Hopefully this will be another goodie.
James Corden ❤ Meryl Streep❤ Anna Kendrick❤ EMILY BLUNT ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ OMG this movie is awesome!!
I kinda wished if Helena Bonham Carter had this role but... still, I've always wanted to see Meryl Streep performing such roles... that's a new one.
Hmm. She's a great actress, but her voice isn't as strong as Meryl's. Both are actresses first who sing well, but I find Meryl captivating in these trailers. And I am not the biggest Meryl Streep bandwagoner in the world. Is bandwagoner a word? Whatevs.
I'm a HBC fan, but her voice, while reasonably pleasant, isn't strong enough for musical leads, and was the most disappointing thing about the Sweeney Todd movie (though I enjoyed her performance otherwise). Streep is a better choice for this.
HBC l, while a great actress, does not have the right voice or emotional complexity needed for The Witch. Meryl was a much better choice.
I saw Into The Woods. It was beautifully well made. It was a musical performed on stage. I'm surprised that it was turned into a movie. I especially love the song You're Fault.
Johnny Depp playing a wacky character in a whimsical-tale-turned-dark type of blockbuster? What are the odds?
Everyone is saying that its 95% musical which makes me not want to see it, but the actors in this story are perfect. I only came for Anna Kendrick .
Also what I liked was Johnny Depp as the Wolf even though he had a small amount of screen time.
Saw the movie yesterday! Fantastic film! Loved every minute of it! And the songs were just dazzling!
Love this trailer except for one thing: Johnny Depp's wolf costume. What in the world were they thinking? Looks like something you'd see in an elementary school play not a high tier hollywood production.
YES! Thank you! I was so excited for his reveal when they didn't show us his face in the first trailer; then his still was released & I was incredibly disappointed. Everything else looks wonderful though.
I'm guessing that since they don't want to hide his face or he doesn't want his face covered as it is the huge selling point for a movie production. They change the costume a bit to make sure they still show his face. Yeah, doesn't work out.
***** And if he ends up like The Wolf in the play, we'll definitely don't have to tolerate him throughout the whole movie.
***** He has a deal in place with Disney for AT LEAST one movie per year through 2020 or something like that.
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one thinking this! It looks like someone borrowed an unfinished costume from the musical Cats! (I love that musical but it looks totally out of place here.) With their budget, couldn't Disney do an actual wolf costume? They certainly have the money for it.
Why, a musical again... I just want to see a fantasy, nice, Disney movie where no one sings.
This is an adaptation of a Broadway musical from 1987. If the movie wasn't a musical too, it would be pretty weird.
animagusurreal Thanks for the info. There are many cases of adaptation, an example: Les Miserables, which was adapted into different genres. I do not think a non-musical adaptation would have been weird.
Topher S Humm, my friend... I mentioned "Les Miserables" because I KNOW its origin and adaptations... There are no prohibitions of "the law" to adapt plays, novels, musicals, etc.
I respect your opinion, but in the world of film and television stories, is make and renew plays all the time, without limit themselves to whether the work was originally conceived in a different way. Anyway, ignore my annoying dissonance tastes, I am minority of minorities, that is clear.
Greetings : )

Amén!. Seriously, I assure you that the musicals will continue living, even after our death.
If you think about it.. Most of Disney Movies based Grimm Brother stories are musicals... or at least have singing in them. Most of Disney Movies have Singing or some kind of musical art in it. I also don't think its entirely a musical.
just came back from the cinema. It was awesome it's been a long time since I last seen a great musical. And it was amazing the acting was great and the singing was awesome and loved all of the songs. It was so unexpected and my god meryl has a very good voice! Go w atch it guys it's great!
I watched this a billion times and I just notice in the trailer Anna Kendrick was here
Still don't like the costume Johnny Depp has as it looks rediculous and he seems to be getting the most spotlight in terms of advertisement even though The Wolf is a minor character in the play. But, considering he's a big name, that's to be expected. But, the movie does look great and I am a huge fan of the play. I'm still going to see it regardless of that one thing that bothers me. :)
I agree about the wolf costume. Not a fan. I think they wanted to make sure he was still very recognizable and so avoided prosthetics. That's the difficulty with having a "star" play a relatively minor role in a show.
It does look ridiculous, i'm glad someone finally said it! Isn't he suppose to be a fucking wolf? Because he looks like a person to me.
Depp’s costume was inspired by the Wolf from Tex Avery cartoons. In full body shots, you can see that he has a tail, Ears and Claws. Here’s the Tex Avery character: farm6.staticflickr.com/5257/5459005636_83947179ec.jpg
Wayne Blood I can definitely see the inspirations, but it doesn't fit well with the timeline the play/movie is set in.
JohnStripedfur The entire film is costumed from different eras, so I don’t have a HUGE problem with it. Though I will be the first to admit that the Wolf looks like Salvador Dali as a pedo creeper. (Which in an odd way is fitting)
I loved it! It made my Christmas perfect! Can't tell how much I loved the singing and the performances... All those so great voices together for the same film, is like a dream come true... Thank you Disney!
Wow, the movie was great...love it.
And I love Emily. You know you love her when you despise the character in a way, but forgive her it all when you see her face.
_You're so plain yet grand,_
_more than a one night stand,_
_like a love unknown and pure._
_And if the life was just_
_then my heart would must,_
_not beat a moment,_
_without you._
_You're a wish my heart sends forth its roots._
_for life and love and those moments in the woods.._
_for you Emily...
Nice
I didn't know James Cordon back then
Hell, he's been acting since '96 or thereabout.
He did have an acting life before "the late show" too ya know :-)
We're doing this in school and I got the part of the Witch! :D wish me luck!
i love that movie
I never noticed the wolf is johnny depp
People from this era don't realize Disney movies were always musicals , I love the old Disney movies growing up as a kid this is just that but it's not a cartoon movie. It brings memories of my childhood just seeing a movie like this.
I have two opposite forces driving me closer and away from this movie. I love the idea, the characters, the plot. But then, there's Johnny Depp playing himself once again...
I'd so like a movie version with Johnny Depp edited out of it.
Agreed to a degree. When they announced Depp would be playing the Wolf I was all for it, but when they revealed what he looked like I quickly took it back...
Totally on board, he can't even sing, ruined Sweeny. At least its a good reason to kill the innuendo between Red and the Wolf, he is about as sultry as a can of baked beans.
The majority of fans loved depp in sweeney todd, so your point is invalid. However his costume is stupid :L
So, my opinion is invalid because you say so? You're funny.
Christian Zamora Yes my friend! :D Glad we are on the same page
Pretty excited, Jack is still to young, and the wolf costume still sucks, but there are SOME positives. There must be. Meryl Steep sound pretty good. I do hear some dialogue thats not in the original show, thats concerning. I know they already cut it by a half an hour, why are they changing the script too. I think overall I'll be pretty disappointed, I'll still see it, but I'll be watching in fear that they ruined my favorite Musical.
Well if that's the attitude you're going in with then you won;t enjoy it will you? What's wrong with just going in with an open mind and the knowledge that anything on film is going to be different from a stage production.
There isn't any way they could keep all the dialouge, its a movie not the musical, there is no intermission, so it needs to be shortened. Just look forward to it!
With that attitude no movie would ever be made. You have to realize that a film works in different ways than a show on stage. And from what I've seen from the film, it looks pretty amazing. You have the original album and production preserved, and you can watch that as many times as you'd like. If you're not interested in watching the film, then don't. Into The Woods is also my all time favorite musical, but I am perfectly aware that stage and film don't work in the same way. The film hasn't yet came out and you're already condemning it. The script was written by James Lapine himself, and Sondheim approved everything and was quite pleased with the film.
You go in with that attitude and there is no way you'll enjoy it. You are literally limiting yourself from enjoyment. Your "favorite" musical has been redone and reimagined in several different ways, this is yet another reindition.
Nothing wrong with Jack's age, the wolf costume looks slick and fucking amazing. Meryl Streep doesn't sound "pretty good", she sounds phenomenal.
The best thing to do is think of the stage show and the movie as two different entities. The movie is inspired by the show to tell the same story, but they are not the same. You will enjoy it that way. That's how I feel about Rent. They structure the story so differently in the movie but as it's own piece it is enjoyable. Don't ruin something because you can't accept it's changes.
That "not always" 1:14 moment is hilarious! I love this movie
I have watched Annie, Wicked, Legally Blonde, Phantom of the Opera, Hairspray, Les Moserable and so many more musicals, and I have never seen a musical that I was thoroughly disappointed at and completely disliked until I went to watch "Into the Woods." All of the songs did not leave me humming. I did not find any of the songs catchy or clever. The plot was horrendous. Everything about the plot was random and irrelevant. The plot was not well written. The tragic part at the end of the movie was random and irrelevant to the whole story. The movie would have been a lot better if they didn't add the tragic part (not that it would be good, just better).There was no central moral or any enlightening and special moments. The characters were bland and lacked charisma as well as uniqueness. The baker's singing skill was not up to par. [SPOILER] The death of some of the characters were irrelevant and not very well written.
I absolutely hate this musical. I feel like I have wasted 2 hours and 4 minutes watching it. I want my money back! Please do not go watch it!
Sondheim is actually one of the most revered musicians of our time, but not for general audiences, mostly for intellectuals and diehard musical fans, and he isn't into making catchy tunes but songs with biting wit that tend to be wordy.
You are entitled to your opinion but it seems like the entire point of the musical flew over your head. There was most certainly a point to the tragic last act that you claim had no central moral (in fact the last act is the entire point). It's obvious to almost every reviewer or critic. The musical basically shits on the traditional fairy tales and exposes how shallow they can be. It shows us what could have happened after "happily ever after" in each of the scenarios. It also directly confronts some of the darkest themes that lie underneath the surface of each of the fairy-tales but are usually ignored outside of academia. They actually made the film less dark than the musical, and even then I was surprised this managed a PG rating.
coco teh I realized that the story was not a happily ever after kind of story. I respect it in that aspect. However, it was terrible in carrying out its theme and message. Every event that happened was very random and SUDDEN like the deaths.
Just because Sondheim is a respectable musician, doesn't mean all of his music are favored by everyone. Die-hard musical fans? I am a die-hard musical fan; however, that doesn't mean I will like every piece of music written by Sondheim. I don't think his songs are witty. It wasn't clever to me.
When I left the theatre, I heard MANY people complain about the movie including a Show Choir teacher.
LOL I already knew how bad it was watching the play. I was like no they did NOT make a movie about it. Yes they did. WTF.
