Editorial Reviews
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 HoriuchiBeyond Enchanted

Must See
I own this on Blu-ray now.
Let me just say this is a fantastic movie, like everybody else has said.
Amy Adam is Outstanding!
See it, you won’t be disappointed.
Disney still has it, why don’t they use it more often?
“Enchanted” is a delightful, sweet tale of a fairy-tale princess transported to the real world, with her prince following her to bring her back.
Princess Giselle (Amy Adams)of Andalasia is shoved by her evil witch future mother-in-law to the real world. Hopelessly lost and confused, she stumbles into the relucant help of Robert (Patrick Dempsey) and his daughter Morgan. Somethings a little different about Giselle, as she has the ability to summon animals to help her with the household chores and make a new dress each morning in a few minutes.
Prince Edward (James Marsden) and his helper follow her in, and are equally unprepared for the new world, leading them to attack buses and talk to TV sets.
Watching this reminded me when Disney was truly a magic place, producing classic after classic. “Enchanted” deserves to be a classic. Amy Adams is on her way to becoming a true movie star. So if Disney can still make great movies, why are they hanging their hats on the half-baked sequels and threequels to thier old classics, and even the garbage they recently produced?
Enchanted
Great family movie! Disney did it again! We love everything about it! Music is quirky but terrific!
