Anastasia (Family Fun Edition w/Bartok the Magnificent) Reviews:
My review 
2009-12-01 - A wonderful movie. My little girl adores the music & storyline. I love it, too.
A different kind of princess 
2009-11-03 - One of my favorite elements of this movie is how this princess is portrayed. My daugter who is 4 is absolutely obsessed with princesses! I find Anastasia to be the most independent of all the Disney princesses. In Anastasia, there is actually a development of a relationship with the love interest, (Beauty and the Beast being the other notable example). Also, though Anastasia is a princess, she ultimately decides that being one isn't the end all, be all of happiness. I don't have a complete aversion to the other Disney princesses. But the theme of falling in love at first sight with almost exclusively princes gets old to me. Not that everyone doesn't need to be saved from time to time by a "knight in shining armor", metaphorically speaking. But I find it a refreshing interpretation that it come from an imperfect person that one actually knows more than a few hours.
The animation and music are great, too. My only one real hesitation is with Rasputin. He's a little on the gross side. My daughter would obviously be more grossed out than an older child. Nonetheless, as an adult, he still kind of gets to me.
Anastasia DVD
2009-09-11 - Don Bluth does it again. Great movie, great villian and great villian side kick (voice by Hank Azia of The Simpson's, Mad About You and Herman's Head fame). Meg Ryan is Anastasia, John Cusack is Demetri, and Kelsey Grammer is Demetri's partner. Very well done, entertaining with great original songs (sung by professionals not the actors).
So pretty
2009-08-06 - Anastasia is a wonderful family movie with beautiful art, music, story telling, and voice talent.
Little Girls will probably love this movie (and little boys) as well!
Great for family movie night or anytime.
Anastasia is just great!
incredable
2009-06-08 - it is a true master work
