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 Whiteand 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

- If She Can Make It There...
Director Kevin Lima and writer Bill Kelly present us with this modern fairy tale where animation collides with live action to regale us with the story of Princess-to-Be, Giselle, a cheery beauty of the storybook kingdom of Andalasia, played by russet-haired Amy Adams.
After an introduction by a well-chosen Julie Andrews, we find Giselle trying to create what turns out to bea stunningly accurate prototype for her true love, right down to the jacket, but interestingly, having no lips to ... Read More

The Bottom Line:
A fun little film that works as a fairy tale and as a satire of one, Enchanted is one of those "family" entertainments that actually has a legitimate shot of pleasing the whole family; it's not perfect--the climax of the film leaves a lot to be desired--but it's a successful film.
Rating: - A fun Movie
We all have those afternoons these movies are made for the time when we just want to leave the real world behind and enter that enchanted world of our Prince or Princess will come into our lives and make it all good... I have the real world everyday this movie was so fun to laugh and feel all warm and cozy all over... Try it..
Rating: - Fun movie!!
It's a Disney film with a good sense of self-deprecation and healthy dose of cynicism.The squirrel is funny and the CGI is well done.Yes, it is somewhat sappy, but I classify it as a good family film that everyone can enjoy more than once.
Rating: - Outstanding
Walt Disney did a terrific job making a movie that the whole family can watch and re-watch.This movie has a great plot, some great special effects, and a cast that works well together.This movie will keep the attention of a wide audience.Being on Blu-Ray only makes a good thing better.
