 Enchanted Blu-Ray November 2, 2008
Enchanted [Blu-ray] THIS IS A FUN FANTASY FILM. QUITE HARMLESS AND ENJOYABLE. IT IS A GREAT WAY TO SPEND TWO HOURS WITH THE FAMILY AND IT TOO LOOKS AWESOME ON BLU-RAY.
 Classic Movie October 27, 2008
Ok, this movie was AWESOME! The beginning makes us "not-so-girly-girls" want to turn it off since it starts out in a classic seemingly Disney princess movie, but keep watching and you will fall in love with it for sure. This movie is sure to sweep you off your feet, make you laugh till your sides hurt, and entertain all ages!
movie for any age October 24, 2008
this movie is for anyone of all ages i bought it for my niece but we all loved it
 Serviceable and ho-hum. . . October 22, 2008
Amy Adams stars as Giselle, a fairy tale princess banished by wicked, power-hungry Narissa, her mother-in-law to be (Susan Sarandon), from Andalasia, her idyllic cartoon-land to the live action, hardened streets of New York City. Patrick Dempsey plays Robert, a single-parent and divorce lawyer who becomes Giselle's unlikely rescuer and real life Prince Charming. Needless to say, Giselle eventually wins everyone over--including of course Dempsey's cynical character. With her own Prince Edward (James Mardsen) and an evil minion of Narissa's in hot pursuit, Giselle gradually adapts to her new world, while maintaining a storybook innocence and cheerful affect that's straight out of Neverland.
As a whole, this comedy probably looked better on paper than it comes across on film. While the idea of "Enchanted" is a charming twist on the musical and fairytale genres that combines elements of "Sleeping Beauty," "Snow White," or "Peter Pan," the film itself is only mildly amusing. True, there are inspired bits such as the running gag of Giselle's fairytale princess-speak and Prince Edward's confrontation with a gruff city bus driver, as well as his later attempt to break into song just before being trampled in the streets of Central Park. Most adults, however, may find "Enchanted" somewhat underwhelming, although it is entirely appropriate for a seven- or eight-year old. The actors gamely play their parts, the direction is seamless and the production values high, but "Enchanted" isn't the slightest bit hip or knowing. For all its provocative NYC environs, this movie fails to come alive in the way of a recent comedy such as "Juno." In the end, "Enchanted" occasionally glimmers when it should have sparkled.
Made by Committee October 21, 2008
Fairy-tale characters enter the real world. Great idea. An excellent actress plays princess Giselle and sings well. Entertaining. Yet, a missed opportunity. Whoever at Disney thought cockroaches helping the princess clean the house was a good idea, should be committed to a mental-institution. The writers having the characters make poses from past Disney fairy-tales, shows the writers unfocused from writing a better story.
The actress playing Giselle the princess does an excellent job portraying fairy-tale innocence. The writers should have had the innocent fairy-tale characters have heroic character and heroic acts that wow us. Instead, they portray the prince as a dummy. I did not like the idea of one guy stealing the other guy's girl.
Worth watching for some good ideas and some good scenes, but frustrating for lack of purity. This movie was made by committee with some smart people starting great ideas and some other weird people spoiling them.
