Classical music was interpreted by Disney animators, resulting in surreal fantasy and playful escapism. Leopold Stokowski and the Philadelphia Orchestra provided the music for eight segments by the composers Tchaikovsky, Moussorgsky, Stravinsky, Beethoven, Ponchielli, Bach, Dukas, and Schubert. Not all the sequences were created equally, but a few are simply glorious, such as "Night on Bald Mountain," "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," and "The Nutcracker Suite." The animation ranges from subtly delicate to fiercely bold. The screen bursts with color and action as creatures transmute and convention is thrust aside. The painstaking detail and saturated hues are unique to this film, unmatched even by more advanced technology. --Rochelle O'Gorman Average Rating:
 Rating:  - FantasiaI can not rewiew Eantasia because I have a real problem with it. This problem is that I never received it and already I paid for it. really I don not know what is happeneing with my Fantasia. Rating:  - My faveWatched this movie after my parents got it for me on video for the 60th anniversary edition. It has always been my favorite Disney movie and now I share it with my nieces. I was probably 3 when I first saw it so ignore those people who say kids won't like it I loved it. Probably shouldn't let kids see the last one til they're older though as it is rather scary. My nieces love the fairies and unicorns. Rating: - good movie...bad copyLove the movie but I belive the copy I got is not origional. The bonus stuff was not on the DVD, the case did not include any of the documentation. The last two pieces were not viewable due to defects in the DVD. I guess when they release it again I'll have to buy another, but then I'm going to the source, not through Amazon. Rating:  - In the Beginning...This animated classic, a "concert feature," is the foundation of my film career. It is the basis for my love of animation, of classical music, of mythology and of dinosaurs. I must have been six or seven, maybe younger, when I saw it in the theatre. I screamed during the Night on Bare Mountain sequence; I remember trying to keep it together, trying not to scream, then one of the harpies (I know which one to this day) flew at the camera and I let out a high-pitched yelp, much like the YAP doled out ...

The was flowers and water lilies dance and the underwater scenes with beautiful sometimes translucent fish tales is gorgeous. I found it very entertaining and also very relaxing. |
