Critic consensus:This Disney dreamscape contains moments of grandeur, with its lush colors, magical air, one of the most menacing villains in the Disney canon.

Numbered reviews:1. Despite being understandably technologically eclipsed... Sleeping Beauty still possesses an ageless Technirama charm and joie de vivre that's hard to find in many modern children's films.
2. Viewing it again for the first time in five years is like being reunited with an old friend.
3. Suffused with celestial metaphors and flights of visual fancy informed by pre-Renaissance art, the economical story is played for cosmic pathos and staged as pagan ritual.
4. Is this the point when Disney animation lost its charm?
5. Very VERY 1950s, both in outlook and execution, but still brimming with wit and powerfully moving at times.
6. Maleficent is one of the crowning achievements of the Disney Villain Factory.
7. Magical!
8. It may be Disney's purest cinematic fairy tale...
9. The picture is so misanthropic that its happy ending feels more coma-dream than fairy-tale resolution
10. not exactly the type of movie you sing along to


Critic consensus:Hard-hitting and stylish, GoodFellas is a gangster classic -- and arguably the high point of Martin Scorsese's career.

Numbered reviews:1. Scorsese brilliantly juxtaposes scenes of family greatness with those of bleak criminal action. The performances are superb examples of action, delivery, and nuance.
2. Goodfellas is a tour de force that brilliantly evokes both the seductive glamour and moral degradation of organised crime.
3. It is, in a word, brilliant.
4. It is not a coincidence that Scorsese's three masterpieces all star Robert De Niro.
5. Compared to less nitpicky gangster fare, GoodFellas still falters.
6. The performances by everyone are stunning, standout.
7. This cinematic gem deserves its rightful place among the best films of 1990s.
8. GoodFellas is an appalling masterpiece of the kind that, along with New York's current well-publicized troubles, is likely to give pause to anyone planning to make a trip to the city.
9. This is the best mob movie ever made.
10. An expert blend of narration, period music, and dynamic tableaux creating an energetic, darkly funny, and unforgettable portrait of life among the Mob's bottom feeders


Critic consensus:A mediocre, gory horror film, nowhere near the quality of the 1973 original.

Numbered reviews:
1. Let's hope Exorcist: The Beginning marks the end of a franchise that never should have gone beyond the 1973 original
2. Plenty violent. And bloody. And gory. What it isn't -- not really -- is scary.
3. Although Harlin hasn't directed a full-out horror movie since 1988's A Nightmare on Elm Street IV, he seems to have spent most of the time since memorizing them.
4. It's not despicable. It is merely boring.
5. Trips over itself in a rush to get gross and then lingers too long on pustules, gaping wounds and maggots.
6. A perfectly mediocre horror film.
7. The pacing is slack, and the increased level of blood and guts seems like a desperate move. And most of the special effects (especially the CGI work) are really shoddy.
8. If you're looking for groundbreaking badness, you needn't look much further than the new Exorcist prequel, which is one interminably grisly waste.
9. Despite a high body count, shock cuts and loud noises, this prequel to William Friedkin's 1973 horror film fails to deliver any palpable shivers.
10. The film focuses too much on gore and weird special effects.
