A Princesa Encantada III: O Mistério do Tesouro Encantado

I am the sort of person who never, ever watches animated movies, but I make an exception for Thumbelina and the Swan Princess. Being absolutely in love with the first installment of the series, I bought this and sat down to watch it with a very biased mind, determined to love it because I'd spent money buying it. I finished the movie, and all I can think is THE HORROR!!! I wanted to like it, I really did. I tried very, VERY hard to like it. But I couldn't enjoy a second of this grueling film. The songs made me feel like ripping my ears out of my head. The dialogue was so lame I felt myself twitching with frustration and irritation every time someone opened his or her mouth. The villain was laughable and I felt myself wanting Derek and Odette to die in the end... and I was absolutely in love with them from the first film.

I am going to try repress the memory of this movie, because it almost destroyed the first one for me. There is one song in the movie in which there are a series of flashbacks to the first film. The difference in animation between the two is made very obvious, and I began yearning for the first one and wishing I'd never set eyes on the third.

Do yourself and favor and don't waste your time.

The overall outcome of the 3rd installment of The Swan Princess is decent. Mostly because the villain is more credible and the animal friends are funnier in this one compared to the previous movie.

Most of the other returning characters also do a decent job. Uberta's and Rogers' interactions are quite amusing in this one.

There are also an action scene including Odette and her animal friends which is great by this movie's standards. The climax is also stronger than in the previous movie. Watch it yourself, I will not spoil anything.

Even though the story is similar to the previous movie, I will call it good enough to make it entertaining. Most of the songs are also memorable. The best is easily Derek's love song "Because I Love Her".

Brian Nissen as Derek, though, is not very involving. He is the weakest of the original characters in this movie. There are also this new animal called Whizzer, which can be quite annoying, but occasionally has a few good lines.

Flawed? Yes, but the best sequel of the two original sequels.

Also titled--> The Magical Castle--> This one is a stretch. Why bother? Why create another rockbart and then add another story line that has nearly nothing to do with the play nor swan lake. Only some girlfriend of rockbart, the stolen book of forbidden arts and the original characters (not voices remain). Stripped to to its bares this is a continuation by a thread. Next thing you know some bird will have memorized the "forbidden arts" and Swan Princess 4: the magical bird will be born. Thankfully though the chapters are supposedly closed and this will beginning but bad ended trilogy will come to a close.

This is a great movie and I think that it is as good as the first I like all three of the swan princess movies but the first and third are my fav's The second is good but lacks something The third has a great plot and is a great story. It's full of fun songs and charaters , including all our fav's frome the first two movies plus new ones It's an all new magicial advencher With Prince Derek, Princess Odette and all their friends. It's a great story with a pretty cool villian

This was (is) my favorite Swan princess movie as a kid. For some reason I never had the first one, and the second one even though I had it on VHS I don't recall ever seeing it, maybe I watched it one time and found it boring so I never watched it again.

This movie is pretty silly, but I think it is pretty funny, specially Rogers, Queen Uberta and Zelda, for some reason I find them hilarious. It is just so dumb when Zelda disguises herself as a german maid(?) and Rogers falls stupidily in love with her, and when she leaves he goes insane and sings a song which along with Zelda's song I think are the best ones.

I really like that they cut down on the animals because they are a bit annoying and in the first one they give them too much screen time, in here they give them what they truly deserve.

The whole talent show thing is so silly but funny, specially Uberta with the whole tango thing.

It's basically an alternative version of the second one, but does it a lot better.
