(T. Breighner, 2009-08-31) Disappointing- unless you want slow slapstick that is more of a turn off than turn on.
(Joshua Jacobsen, 2009-02-20) I bought this video because it co-starred Linnea Quigley who I had recently seen in "Return of the Living Dead." I shouldn't have been disappointed by this film, since it was made in 1979 and started with a particularly silly premise, but I was. This film is an attempt to blend "the musical" with "porn." It further "breaks new ground" by following a virginal teenage prince through his exploits in fairy tale land in search of the one woman who can arouse him. Along the way, he meets various amorous female fairy tale protagonists who are eager to seduce him. They usually do this by shedding a little clothing during a song and dance, but fail to close the deal. To me, this kind of song and dance was reminiscent of a grade school tap dance play that might involve lollipops. More specifically, it was cutesy and not-at-all erotic. It seemed inappropriate and in poor taste... which some people may say is implicit in any porn. In this case, however, I can't imagine why this type of inappropriateness or poor taste would stimulate anyone. I expected (and would have preferred) to see a darker interpretation of fairy tales -- something less child-like and more adult. Comparing it to other porn, this is very tame. There is nudity, but nothing explicit. The girls are attractive in a 1960's sort of way... most of them more round than a contemporary person would consider sexy. Makeup and hairstyles are severely dated. Production values are great by 1979 standards, but also severely dated. I don't like musicals to begin with, nor do I usually like older movies, so this film stood little chance of pleasing me. However, I've met a few people who enjoyed this film "back in the day" and enjoyed seeing it again. This was definitely in the "higher budget" bracket of the porn industry during its era.
(Ric Ackerman, 2008-09-03) I just bought this because it's the "companion" to Cinderella. At least the actors are the same. That's where the simalarity ends. The only good thing about this flick was it was cheap. My advice, save your money & put it towards the overpriced Cinderella.
(Andrew N. Price, 2008-07-05) I was on a Charles Band DVD bender when I came across this title. It was too bad I wasn't paying more attention to the details. This DVD release has an unfortunate "R" rating. So, when I began to watch the film I noticed when it came up to the good scenes, all the action was left out. This unfortunately left the rest of the film lacking all positive quality. Since the story isn't the selling point of the feature. My suggestion is, you should avoid this DVD release, if at all possible. But, if you are desperately looking for this title. Don't be fooled, you should hunt for a higher rating!
(Michael Dolan, 2006-03-19) Its a very good movie funny and a good musical very interestinc group of people.
