Appropriately named!! Enchanted WILL Enchant you!

Rating: 9/10 (22 December 2009)

My gawd, but this movie is FUN! It's also "cute, delightful, magical, sweet, and FUNNY!!" VERY funny. This pretty much takes every fairytale cliché and mops the floor with it. It's Disney's charming 2D animation combined with a modern love-comedy...so what do you get when you do that? AWESOME of course! The acting is superb...particularly Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsy. I have to say Amy outshines everyone. She plays her "adorably innocent and naive virgin princess Giselle" role SO naturally that you'd swear she's really like that. Her antics are so over-the-top and she's a just a little ray of shiny sunshine so combine her with the most cynical guy in New York, Robert, and you have one hilariously entertaining duo through the whole movie. And the chemistry between Adams and Dempsy is H-O-T without needing to be inappropriate for kids. They just have it! Yes, there is some subtle innuendo but young kids won't pick up on it. The other characters are just as fun...and I can honestly say I had no problems with ANY of them. They're all likable!! (Prince Edward is a riot!) Add in a brilliant script, songs worthy of Broadway, witty laugh-out-loud humor and beautiful animation scenes and you've got one of the best movies Disney has made in a long long time...and in my opinion, the BEST Princess movie ever made as well. So...why only nine stars? Well.....the villain herself is little weak compared to other Disney villains. Let's just say Sarandon makes a much better actress than a voice actress. Her animated character is eh. She works as a live character a great deal more. But even this doesn't stop me from watching my Enchanted DVD over and over again. XD This movie is amazing. Absolutely perfect for mothers and daughters to watch together as young and old couples alike. The only audience I'd be iffy on are little boys. Might be a teensy bit too girly for them.^^
