Save Your Money

"I do not recommend the purchase of this dvd. We anxiously awaited its release as it was touted as having a new Snow White cartoon. Instead of creating a brand new cartoon, Disney used excerpts from the Snow White movie and rearranged them along with narration to create a new story. At times, the characters are pictured talking on screen in still shots with no mouth movements. There are some interactive features in the Snow White story which ask the child to make selections with the remote. My daughter is 4 1/2 and doesn't use the remote. I helped her make the choices, but she found it to be frustrating. The Jasmine cartoon is one that Disney still shows in The Aladdin cartoon series reruns. The Little Mermaid cartoon is also from the Little Mermaid cartoon series that still runs on Disney. My daughter had seen the Aladdin and Little Mermaid cartoons on television previously. This was a disappointing waste of money."

Shoddy product from Disney

"I agree with everything the previous reviewer said. The Snow White cartoon is nothing more than a few still frames thrown together to form a semi-interactive story about making pies. The other two cartoons are full motion, but they feel even flatter than the Snow White slide show. These look like the typical dribble of afternoon cartoons being cranked out by writers who lack the time, talent, or inspiration to put a decent story together. There's so little in common with the original productions, that its hard to believe you're watching Disney.

From now on, I'll stick to their movies."

I should have read the reviews here first

"I purchased this dvd at the store because I thought my daughter would like it.
What a horrific pile of crap this video is! Not only is the mouthing wrong (how could Disney get this wrong?!) but some parts, like the Ariel portion, are blurry-ish.
The voices are pretty annoying and the worst of all is Snow White. I had no idea it would be 'interactive'.
Don't buy this."

My 3 year old loves this!

"I Definitely agree it could have been done much better and may be disappointing to older children, but to my three year old daughter, this is gold! It never fails to make her smile and she dances along with the song at the end. She enjoys it and that's all that matters to me. It was money well spent."
