Advantages: Great soundtrack, thorougly enjoyable from start to finish Disadvantages: None
After reviewing the Tom Cruise film yesterday I thought I should review what I think is the best version of War of the Worlds (bar the original novel of course).

Advantages: Includes the classics from the best Disney films Disadvantages: Has some less well known tracks that you might end up skipping
This triple cd full of Disney classics is a must buy for any Disney fan. As well as songs from the classic films such as Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Jungle Book, The Lion King and many more, there are various tracks from less well known films which are just as enjoyable.
