laugh out loud

Rating: 7/10 (27 December 2010)

An incredibly honest pastiche of the Disney cut on fairy tales with princesses. Enchanted manages the difficult double act of being a Disney movie and parodying them at the same time.
Its not a great movie. Its not the Princess Bride. But its funny, observant and visually impressive and a good way to spend a couple of hours on Boxing Day.
The animated sequences are "just" sub standard - hopefully deliberately so. The extent to which "magic" works in Manhattan is carefully judged and works very well.
The cast are excellent, although not terribly stretched.
