"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" was the first full length animated movie that was first released some seventy years ago now. It's launch a new form of entertainment in film and directly led to the rise of a company that is as recognizable today as anything else: Disney.

Or -- if you want the definitive version, the Blu-ray + DVD three disc set known as the Diamond Edition is available starting today. Diamond Edition releases are the absolute best from Disney, and will only encompass fourteen classics to be released over the next six years. Anyway, how about a review, you say, as though you don't already know how this will turn out...

Are you a true friend? Kenji’s life had been a rather bland and simple one. He owns and operates a small neighborhood convenience store with his mother and is the guardian of his infant niece, Kanna.

Will Kenji’s fate end up like so many others pursuing the “Friend,” or will he fulfill a childhood dream and save the world?
