I am so far behind with my movie blog that there’s only one
way to catch up. I will briefly
comment on the various movies and assume you know what the movie is about.
While “Into the Woods,” the cinematic adaption of Stephen
Sondheim’s fairy tale Broadway musical, can claim a clever script and a few
enjoyable performances, it’s really not that engaging. And in spite of
perennial Oscar nominee Meryl Streep headlining the cast, Chris Pine’s Prince
Charming is the best thing about the movie. His prince is the perfect mix of
bluster, charisma and empty-headedness and his song “Agony” is truly enjoyable.
“Into the Woods” may seem like the perfect family movie, but it’s hard to
imagine young children having much interest in a film that’s really aimed at
adults.
