It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

all is well known. and all is original. not for the idea or for acting or for magic of technology. but for inspired translation of a state who defines generation by generation. it is a simple fairy tale. remembering Kate & Leopold. and the colorful books of childhood. and this is the small great virtue. to be an unconventional film for entire family. to use the classic fairy tall and the love story and the animation and an idea who was/will be tempting for children - if the princess/the prince/the frog/the witch are in near reality ? so, a beautiful film. not surprising from good actors, good script and not bad director.

This film is different from other Disney's princess movies in many points. First of all, it is constructed from animation and real picture. What is more interesting is that at the end of the movie, some characters live in different world. The animation character lives in real life, and the real world's character lives in animation world. Second, the characters in this film fins out what is their true love. The important point is, not only the lead character but also the others around her finally realize their true loves. It is not romantic like other princess's stories, a kind of the love of princess and prince. However, it brings sympathy to audience. Third, the princess's character is typical of a princess in the beginning,(for example, she can talk with animals, and she likes t sing) but she learns many things in the real life and grows gradually. And this growth lets her realize her true love. One of the elements I like in this movie is it includes many songs. It is like a musical somehow, and music gives us a great impact. This movie's main theme is love, but is concludes humor and family love, so everyone can enjoy this film.

Enchanted (2007): Dir: Kevin Lima / Cast: Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey, James Marsden, Susan Sarandon, Timothy Spall: Here is the answer to fantasy visiting reality. A Princess is banished to Earth and discovers New York. Her Prince follows but struggles with the same inability to communicate. Obviously she will have certain issues with the reality she now inhabits but director Kevin Lima spins a nice twist in the third act. This is a huge improvement over such crap as Tarzan and 102 Dalmatians. Amy Adams is delightful as a Princess who believes in love. She has fun with the translation from fantasy to New York but it is her switch in traditional storytelling roles that ultimately allows her to steal the film. Patrick Dempsey plays a divorce lawyer whom encounters her. The role is somewhat straight forward yet Dempsey is also thrust into that role reversal climax. James Marsden is hilarious as the Prince whom learns that New York doesn't heed his demands yet he too propels towards a conclusion that isn't as expected but it works the same magic. Susan Sarandon is dominant as the evil Queen in what might have been a standard issue role had it not been for her fierce delivery. Timothy Spall plays the Queen's evil servant who is manipulated to do her bidding. Tremendous animated, live action visual extravaganza about the enchantment of true love. Score: 9 / 10

Spoilers.OK so I'm just gonna say one word... Pip! Love, love, love him! The whole apple scene, I can't stop watching and I crack up in hysterics every single time I watch it (The first time I was easting something and nearly choked!) especially when he imitates Giselle singing 'True loves kiss', so funny!The cast was well chosen, but as another reviewer has said we didn't exactly need the girlfriend (and yes I agree having her as a 'girl' friend would have been much better).Loved all of the songs, especially the one in the park about how you know if he loves you. So, so cute and I so wanna write it down as a list for my next relationship lol.Amy Adams is perfect for the role, slipping into the role of a Disney princess as easily as a woman slips into a custom made designer gown. Patrick Dempsey also plays his role well and even though she's seemingly destined to marry the prince, you can't help but root for Robert.Just as much as Amy plays Giselle so perfectly James Marsden is perfectly cast as Prince Edward also easily slipping into the role. And talk about great actors, I had no idea the evil queen was Susan Sarandon until I saw the credits! So way to go Susan! And just now I found out Idina Menzel (aka Ms Frozen and Ms 'Defying Gravity' who I love) was Nancy!Even now, approx 5 and a 1/2 hours later, 'true love's kiss' is playing in my mind (Giselle and Pip's version, lol) showing just how much of a keeper/stayer the song is. Well, well done to all simply put a 10/10. I want to get lost in this film. How great would it be to reverse this and for us to wind up in Andalasia?
