Top CriticOverhyped family movie covered in a cellophane shrink-wrap of corporate Disney plastic-ness.
12/14/07
Top CriticSusan Sarandon is terrific as the Evil Queen; Timothy Spall pops up like a well-used wart; and James Marsden is the terrifically thick and handsome Prince.
12/14/07
Top CriticIt's not quite as enchanted or magical as it could have been, but this family romp still manages to be good fun, and is lifted by fantastic turns from Amy Adams and James Marsden.
12/14/07
Top CriticIt’s only when the story hits the streets of NYC and Adams starts hamming it up (much like Julie Hagerty did in ‘Airplane’) that we start seeing the fruits of a grand Mickey-take.
12/13/07
Top CriticFor the most part this is a perky delight that takes a cheeky glee in biting the gloved hand that feeds.
12/11/07
Top CriticThe dedicated fairy tale fan will have tons of fun spotting all the references. Adams, meanwhile, gives one of the comedy performances of the year.
12/04/07
Top CriticIt's obvious but inescapable: Enchanted is as good as its name.
11/21/07
Top CriticA heart-winning musical comedy that skips lightly and sprightly from the lily pads of hope to the manhole covers of actuality, if you see what I mean. I'm not sure I do.
11/21/07
Top CriticEnchanted works its magic largely by sending up some of the very stereotypes that have long been Walt Disney Pictures’ profitable stock in trade.
11/21/07
Top CriticEnchantment only goes so far in Disney's Enchanted, a sometimes clever, other times grating mix of live action and animation that plays tricks with levels of movie reality as the world of fairy-tale animation invades contemporary New York.
11/20/07
Top CriticMore than lives up to its title. A full-blown musical that commutes between Disney's patented cartoon universe and the real world with cleverness and grace, this splashy production reminds one of nothing in the Disney canon so much as Mary Poppins.
