Our family has yet to see this movie, but we definitely want to. I’ve heard nothing but great things!
I also heard great things about the Nutcracker. I would probably check this one out.
I will check this out when it comes out here in Japan. I swear the middle girl looks like Kristin Kreuk.
I have not seen this yet and I was debating it but now that I have read this post I am going to rent it ASAP!
I almost went to see this over winter break but it was just too cold. Glad I can catch it on video now.
I can’t believe we still haven’t seen this one!! It looked amazing. I love Misty Copeland too! Awesome that it’s now out on blu-ray
I want to see this movie so badly!!! I heard it’s amazing. Misty Copeland is so awesome
Glad this is out on video now. I want to see it as much as the grandkids!
This movie looks like alot of fun. My wife loves the ballet and really wants to see this movie.
I have totally been waiting for this to come on DVD. We did not make it to the theaters with the little ones to watch it – so we definitely will do it this way!
I missed seeing this movie when it was shown in our local theaters. I will have to make sure we get a copy of it when available. This is a classic that the whole family will enjoy watching.
I’ve been wanting to check this out for awhile 🙂
My nephew told me about this movie but I haven’t seen it yet. That was such an exciting giveaway!
I think my son would love to watch this. He saw a version of the Nutcracker for school and loved it.
I did not get to see it when it was in theatres. I really want to see it and I am so happy to know that it is out and available. I know what I will be watching this weekend! 🙂
Oh my gosh, how exciting! I want to watch this movie with my kids. And you look beautiful in that pic with the roses in backdrop. <3
I want to watch this with my family. You look beautiful in this outfit.
Very nice. I have not seen it for myself but this is a great bonding idea with my little son.
My niece would love this movie! She loves the book and wants to be a ballerina!
I haven’t taken my kids to see this yet so I guess we will have to wait for Netflix. My daughter loves the nutcracker.
my niece lives with me she wants to see this and of course I do to. Thanks you all for the chance.
I loved this story as a kid. I will be interesting to see this new take on the Nutcracker, especially since it is such a holiday classic for my family.
The nutcracker was such a magical movie! My boys loved it too and RJ is hype every time he sees a commercial for it!
So glad to know this one’s out! Been wanting to watch it for a while now. THANKS for sharing!
I haven’t seen this one yet! However, I would like to watch this one with my daughter — my son would run away –she likes holiday movies!
I never considered seeing this until reading your post. I would love to see the new take on this classic.
I didn’t even know that Disney made a version of the Nutcracker! I LOVE going to see the ballet every year. I’ll definitely have to check it out.
I know I wanted to watch it when I saw it was coming to the movie theaters. I just didn’t go. I know my daughter will want to see it. Will have to pick it up this weekend.
My kids and I have watched it and we loved it. It’s spectacular. But I just wonder though. Why does Disney twist the storylines of classic tales? Why do they make the villains good? Hmmm…hehe
