Life is idyllic in the fairytale world where conflict is minimal and breaking into song solves every problem, but what happens when a princess from the fairy world gets magically transported into the real world? Enchanted begins in the animated fairytale world of Andalasia where Princess Giselle (Amy Adams) is destined to marry Prince Edward (James Marsden) and live happily ever after. Problem is, Edward's step-mother Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) doesn't want to give up the throne and will do anything to get Giselle out of Edward's life. Queen Narissa's solution is to push Giselle into a well that magically lands Giselle smack in the middle of the real world--the center of Time Square in New York City, to be exact. This launches the live-action portion of the film where Giselle immediately realizes that things are frighteningly different in this new world and that she is ill-prepared for the callous ways of the people who inhabit it. Giselle finds herself alone on a stormy night in the wrong end of town, but a chance encounter with Robert (Patrick Dempsey) and his princess-loving daughter Morgan (Rachel Covey) leads to a warm, safe place to spend the night and the beginnings of a complicated, yet compelling relationship. As Giselle begins to question the fairy-tale truths she's always inherently believed, Robert's outlook on life and love also begins to change significantly. Parallels to the classic Disney fairytales, Cinderella, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty abound in the form of a King's and Queen's ball, small animals and rodents who clean house when called, the threat of poisoned apples, characters impulsively breaking into song, and the power of the kiss of true love and the absurd juxtaposition of fairytale idealism and stark reality is hilariously funny. Features music by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz of Pocahontas and The Hunchback of Notre Dame fame, Wicked's Broadway Elpheba Idina Menzel as Nancy, and even a brief appearance by former Princess voice talent Judy Kuhn (Pocahontas). Enchanted is one of the best, most entertaining Disney films of the year. (Ages 6 and older with parental guidance due to some scary images and mild innuendo) --Tami Horiuchi Beyond Enchanted

A modern happily ever after. August 27, 2008
Enchanted starring Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey is a cute Disney flick for all ages. James Marsden and Susan Sarandon also star and steal the show. Adams's performance is a bit annoying but her angelic voice and adorable charisma is the perfect recipe to play a sweet, doe-eyed princess. Dempsey is pretty good in this as well, he's more than McDreamy guys! This movie is part animation and live action, I like the songs and ending. Give this charming fairytale a chance, enjoy!
 Pure magic for all ages August 27, 2008

This movie is pure magic - a true gift to all movie viewers of all ages. In this day and age it is so important to have a movie that just makes you feel good and manages to give you a natural high. This movie is so well crafted. The story is very original - cartoon characters coming to life - but it could have been silly. Instead, it is handled by only the most talented at all levels from director to A++++ actors to bring pure art together.
Amy Adams as the princess is a revelation. She inhabits this character with all she has. The princess becomes very real and you experience all the wonders of the world with her. Her comedic timing is impeccable and her singing is glorious. Adding Patrick Dempsey as her real life Prince Charming was ingenious casting. It is so great to see him away from Grey's Anatomy. He is a class act and truly personifies all that is good and caring in this world. He also manages to make his character believable and not a caricature.
When the movie bursts into song your heart will sing. It is amazing. The entire package of this film from beginning to end is pure magic and a journey for people of all ages to take. Show it to your kids so they can see that positive, happy feelings are possible. And for me, being 47, I recommend it to all adults. It will make you see how we all become a little jaded in life and it reminds us that the world can be magic and love is the greatest gift of all. True love's first kiss.
This movie will become a Disney classic. It ranks up there wih the best of them like Mary Poppins. It is honestly one of the best and most feel good movies I have ever seen.
Kudos to ereryone involved and highly recommended.

 I wasn't. August 20, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I wanted to like this movie. I like fairy tales and happily every after. And it had a few good moments, but overall this movie grated on my nerves. Watching it made me tense and edgy for reasons I can't quite explain. The chipmunk, of course, was the highlight of the movie - and that's saying quite a bit.
There were moments of dialogue where I did like the characters, but I spent most of the movie cringing - especially when it came to the prince. I just couldn't handle his character - it was so very, very bad. And it wasn't so much the acting (though that was over-the-top, perhaps by design) but the script and the costumes and everything. And perhaps he was supposed to be annoying. The wicked witch was better in person than she was animated, but still felt like a two-dimensional character. Some of the supporting cast were better (the little girl, for one) but it simply didn't make up for what felt like a real lack of chemistry between most of the characters.
And even though I expected the story to be somewhat predictable, there were zero twists and turns to liven it up. Absolutely nothing original or interesting once you got past the 'falling into the real world' bit (which, admittedly, was big, but you need something near the finale - besides a scene that reeks of political correctness).
For a really good fairy tale movie, check out The Princess Bride and give this one a miss.
