What begins as a classic Disney fairy tale meets the realm of modern day New York City ultimately spirals into stupidity.
Someone take pity on Julie Andrews!! Poor thing had to narrate the thing?! Enchanted stars Amy Adams as Giselle, a fairytale princess waiting for true love's first kiss who is banished from animated-land by the evil Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon). What follows is an inane, self-indulgent movie that will have your IQ dropped by half in the 90 minutes it takes to finish up.
Amy Adams is adorable with her doe-eyes. Patrick Dempsey {I don't get it} is the modern-day divorce lawyer who doesn't believe in true love. You can guess the rest.
Susan Sarandon has a great turn as the evil queen. What's even better is her diatribe as the evil dragon dangling from the Empire State building.
Enchanted is harmless, ahem, fun--if you are between the ages of 3 and 8. Sadly, this is not Disney classic material.

It's a friggin KIDS movie! It's supposed to be silly (stupid) in the eyes of adults. On the other hand, I thought it was okay.
And I don't get the Patrick Dempsey/Dr. Heartthrob thing either. To me, he'll always be the dorky Ronald Miller from CANT BUY ME LOVE -- a movie that OWNS most 80's teen comedies.
