Enchanted: A Modern Disney Fairy Tale

Did you ever wonder what would happen if a fairy tale character suddenly found themselves in our world? Most people imagine themselves going to the world of fairy tales and not the other way around.

Enchanted is a heart-warming story of a Disney “princess” finding true love in a most unlikely place - New York City. New York is a busy town where people don't notice other people that much anymore… Each is filled with cynicism as they go about their daily lives to earn a living. Imagine what it would be like if you were a lost, pure-hearted and hopeful Disney princess-to-be suddenly thrust in a place like it.

I had thought this movie would be much of a kiddie movie but it's not, it's actually for all ages. It's a real life fairy tale! For the cynics, it makes you want to believe in miracles again. For the broken hearted, it makes you want to believe there might be someone else altogether that was made for you. Like there must be someone else out there, other than the one you thought was your true love, who's your twin soul and that you haven't met him/her yet.

It's a fun-filled movie with animation, musicals, magic and action! The music and songs are very beautiful, all the dance sequence are fantastic! It makes me want to dance too.

There are some parts that I fond corny but what can I expect from a Disney cartoon character who became human? Of course she's bound to be quite funny in a way. Amy Adams is so believable as a cartoon character who became human.

The CG animation was also great. The best part of it is the flame that appears whenever the Narissa, the evil Queen, transforms. It's really amazing! The only thing that wasn't really believable was Narissa's dragon form… it didn't look much like a real dragon would look like in our world. It looked too cartoonish and a bit cute, but then maybe that was their intent.

All in all I'd give the movie a rating of 8, on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best and most excellent.

I highly recommend it to people who want to believe in love again and to people who want to see what happens when imagination crosses over to reality.
