You won't be disappointed!

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Having a Promotional Homo Video Original Copy of Disney's 'Song Of The South' from 1995, and having read all of the books of Joel Chandler Harris, all I can say is this is JUNK.This is totally computerized, Politically Correct, Feminist approved, National Association for the Advancement of "Cheesy" People approved-- yes my opinion of that organization, which unfairly and unjustly smeared the original Disney classic WITHOUT ANY OF ITS MEMBERS EVER ACTUALLY SEEING THE FILM IN ITS ENTIRETY.And Yes I can say that about them because I am Black Myself. Father is a Black Man from Trinidad, Mother from Venezuela. Currently I live in Trinidad.#1. As with almost anything Hollywood makes today, it's all about the Girls coming of Age, and let's just forget about Boys ever becoming of age.#2. The fact that the 'Gullah' accent or the Historical Southern African-American dialect is absent from the Characters, which is a BIG BIG dis-service and injustice to both Harris' books and the Disney Classic makes it BORING & LAME. Because with the accent, the stories LOSE A HUGE PART OF THEIR ESSENCE. And Artistically speaking, Animated Characters are much much more fun and more interesting to watch when they speak with an accent.It was like having the stories TRANSLATED from Gullah to Corporate North American English, and as with anything else that gets translated, once translated it loses lots of the essence that comes from being spoken in the Original Language.In My Opinion it's much more worth you while to go to www.songofthesouth.net and look at the ways in which you can take action to urge Disney to re-release the original Song Of The South.Very Boring, Very Awful, and completely watered down and soul-less version of the Books and the Original Disney classic.

Right now, this film is the only film based on the Tales of Uncle Remus I have, because the Disney Studios haven't re-release "The Song Of The South" on DVD, because of some controversy regarding it's content. But I have seen that movie online and quite frankly I love both films; I am not one to take sides.This film is loosely based on Julius Lester's take on the stories, and the film starts with a bored little girl named Janey. Then she met up with Brer Turtle and he told the stories of Brer Rabbit's madcap adventures. You know, in "Brer Rabbit breaks up The Party" it was kind of mean that the other critters won't let Brer Rabbit join the party; but he is lucky to have a friend like Brer Turtle. So anyway, I love this film.

The film features many of today's notable Black entertainers. My girls (4 & 7 y.o.) are loving it. It is a great way to keep these traditional stories alive. It is also a good way to teach children about contrasting mediums (film vs. writing). You may be also get them to read the stories in various editions. The songs are great! They too are part of the Black cultural traditions. The film does a good job of presenting both sides of morality, that someone can do good and bad things. I am thoroughly enjoying myself watching the film with my children. It retells the stories I know plus many I don't. Great for the whole family.

Cute adaption of the stories I remember my mother reading me. The stories remain true to memory, but the dialect was absent which kind of ruined it a little bit for me. DVD quality was excellent. Both my children ages 4 and 14 both had their attentions held on the screen. The colorful scenes held the young ones and Brer rabbit's tricks kept the older kids watching for whats next. The extra DVD games were a little difficult for the younger children but fun for the older set. A fun story to watch with the kids. I just felt it was missing something I couldn't quite put my finger on. I recommend seeing this just not highly. A good rental!
