Must See Family Movie

Rating: 9/10 (23 November 2007)

My family always goes to a movie Thanksgiving Day, so it has to be something that all the kids can watch. Most of the time we see something like the Cat in the Hat, or some other dumb animated movie that drives me nuts the entire time. However, this year we got a real treat with Enchanted.
I thought it was just going to be another sappy cartoon story, but it really made me laugh and almost cry even. This is story telling on the level of Disney's The Lion King, or Beauty and the Beast, or others of the great animated classics. For a family movie, this is a must see.
Also, it is completely clean. Other shows, like the Shrek series, try to make a funny animated movie, while inserting crudities, but this was clean enough for the entire family to enjoy.
I especially liked how Disney poked some fun at itself, and some of its corny moments from movies past. Instead of being ashamed of those things, this movie really embraces them and allows the watcher to laugh at the same things they have enjoyed for years. Consequently, this is a must see for a family movie, and one that I will want to buy as soon as it is out on DVD.
Note: The Music and Graphics were also very good, so it might be one that is best enjoyed in the theater.
