Enchanted - Truly It Is

I just spent two hours in a total fantasy world…and I loved it! I have not laughed nor smiled that “goofy” smile (in complete darkness with no one looking either) nor walked away from a movie with that “Boy! Do I feel good!!” feeling in a very long time. This movie gave me all that.

Walt Disney’s Enchanted truly was enchanting. It’s easy to see why it’s the #1 movie in America. Enchanted directed by Disney Animator, Director, Producer, and writer, Kevin Lima (Aladdin, Tarzan) brings classic fairytale to modern day New York in a story about…what else…true love. The movie stars Amy Adams as Princess Gizelle, who is suddenly thrown out of her life in fairytale land to the unknown world of New York City by evil queen Narisa, played devilishly by Susan Sarandon. In New York, Gizelle stumbles (well, actually falls) upon a well-intentioned lawyer (Patrick Dempsey) who eventually helps her discover the true meaning of love all the while her Prince-to-be, Edward (James Marsden), is looking for her. Which man captures her heart? You’ll have to go see the movie!

I’m still smiling. This movie may even be up for an Oscar or two (my prediction - in costuming and animation) as well. Whether it is nominated or not (or even wins) doesn’t matter. Enchanted, like Gone Baby Gone, is worth every penny…at least it is in my book. I give it -

I really do! Enchanted is the “feel good” movie of the 2007 holiday season. If you’re feeling stressed, tired of shopping, and hopping from one holiday party to another, take 2 hours out of your day and go see this film. It’ll put you right back into the holiday spirit!

Until next time, see YOU at the movies!
