CONSENSUS: “There is a nice, quiet and moody aesthetic to this artful film, but the plot leaves something to be desired. Sleeping Beauty never really rises to its full potential and not enough happens to keep the audience interested until the final credits.”

“While there is a quiet beauty to this film and it is definitely an interesting premise, the execution falls a bit short of expectations. I wasn’t feeling much tension and with few actual happenings in the film, it just kind of drags without any momentum. Not bad, but I don’t know if I would call it good.”

“It doesn’t have a great ending, but it held me in suspense for the most part.”
