Movie Reviews of Once Upon a Mattress
Movie Review: HILARIOUS!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a VERY entertaining and amusing version of the show, with incredible eye-popping colorful sets, ridiculous Bob Mackie costumes, a GREAT cast with two of my favorites, Carol Burnett and Tracey Ulman, and a hilarious, "over-the-top" screen play and musical score. I laughed all the way through it, and I thought the all the production elements were top notch, especially considering it was "made for TV". As other Amazon reviewers have noted, Tracey Ulman does a fine job as the goofy Princess, but it's Carol Burnett as the star of the show in the role of the overbearing Queen, looking like a cross between Cher and the cross dressing Tim Curry in "Rocky Horror Picture Show", that will make this version both a cult and family classic.Movie Review: Burnett, Ullman Shine in latest version of classic tale!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have just finished watching this on the Wonderful World of Disney and it was perfect. Carol Burnett has always been a personal favorite of mine and her performance in this along with the multi-talented Tracy Ullman are not to be missed! The musical numbers were delightful and integral to the plot of this wonderful production. What a delightful holiday treat this was! To top it off was to see the DVD release of this treasure advertised at the end of the broadcast tonight. A must have for my collection! This brought Broadway right into my living room and I highly recommend this DVD for everyone out there.Movie Review: Once Upon a Mattress
Summary: 5 Stars
If you never see another musical, you have to see this. The teaming of Carol Burnett and Tracey Ullman is sensational. The 2 most brilliant comediennes and talented in every way. Dick Smothers plays a superbly cast King.
This is one musical I could watch over and over again. The songs are amazingly singable, and the dance numbers wonderful to watch.
Once Upon a Mattress is an all-time favourite. Do yourself a favour and buy this one. It's not for rental. It's for watching many, many times. Also has some great extras. I love the rehearsal clips. Always good value
Movie Review: I want it 5 Stars
I just watched it on TV and now I'm in love with it. It's to late to ask for it for Christmas but with any luck I'll get some money for Christmas and I can order it that day. I have never seen the original one with Carol Burnett as the princess but I just loved her as the queen. My favorite Characters were Sir Harry and Lady Larken I have no idea who played them but the were wonderful. I think everybody who has never seen the original will love it and I only say that because I here their are a few differences in the songs. I'd Tell you the best and funnest part but it would rune itMovie Review: Once in A Blue Moon
Summary: 5 Stars
Once Upon a Mattress is a great family film with a good message about just being yourself. The characters are funny and colorful in nature. I dare you to watch this and not laugh.
The music is catchy and nearly all the songs are unique and fun. This is a excellent adaptation of the classic musical and short enough for family movie night, as the 90 minute run time is perfect to maintain the attention of all family members.
I would recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys musicals or movies like Ella Enchanted.
