4.4 / 5

Is it just me, or is the DVD home version missing some of the songs that were played in the theatre? At the theatre, I loved some of the songs and was totally disappointed in the music score of the original DVD as well as the special edition 2 DVD. (not impressed)! I found the DVD soundtrack actually boring. Is Disney going to release the original theatre version? If so, that would be worth buying. Anyone else have the same opinion?
