 Surprisingly entertaining, goofy fun. Nov 13, 2008
This is a regular guy's review or take on Disney's `Enchanted':
I caught a showing of `Enchanted' (not the Blu-Ray) on Starz HD late one night after I'd just finished watching `The Bourne Ultimatum' (rockin' action flick by the way, great bathroom fight scene.) I'm on here, considering buying this DVD for my niece.
Let me just say up front that `Enchanted' wouldn't normally have been my type of movie; it's a family flick, a musical and a romantic comedy based on fairy tale archetypes---not usually my thing at all. And in fact the script itself is a fairly straightforward fish-out-of-water story about an innocent naïve girl lost in the big city and affects the people she comes in contact with, that is very similar to `Splash!', the 1980's Tom Hanks and Darryl Hannah mermaid movie.
I won't proceed to describe the plot details as others before me and the Amazon caption summary have done it far better than I could have. With that out of the way, `Enchanted' was a lot of fun, witty at times and a joy to watch. With any other cast, this movie would not have been half as good as it is. The actors shoulder what could have been a generic script premise worthy of a made for cable movie on the Disney Channel and elevate the movie above its genre.
Amy Adams is a joy to watch and she steals every scene she's in; I expect this lady to catapult to mega-movie stardom in short order. I defy any other heterosexual guy to resist falling for Adams in this part. She's so adorable, sweet and beautiful in a girl-next-door sort of way as Giselle that you totally buy her as the cartoon princess from a fairy tale world that becomes a real girl, so to speak. And the lady has a set pipes as well; the Central Park musical number reminded me of some of the great bits from `Mary Poppins', Disney's other classic (Julie Andrews was a babe back in her day).
Kudos to credited song-writers Mencken and Schwartz; I challenge anyone to dislodge the movie's catchy songs from their craniums after a viewing.
No small credit also goes to James Marsden; he likewise had a difficult part to play as Prince Edward. He very easily could have played it very formally, read the dialogue and swung the sword about. Marsden makes the Prince such a good-natured buffoon who's a nice enough guy but is overly impressed with himself, that he makes a great foil to Patrick Dempsey's Robert, a divorce attorney. (Marsden was also the same dude who played Lois Lane's boyfriend in `Superman Returns', who I thought who would have made a better Clark Kent/Superman than the guy that did play him who did the Christopher Reeve impression.)
The direction by Kevin Lima is not groundbreaking, but is understated and capable enough where you don't notice all the moving parts of this likely complicated production. I actually prefer this sort of direction to the more pretentious `Hey Ma, look, I'm directin', I'm directin'!' stylistic efforts of other modern filmmakers.
Overall, `Enchanted' is a very good movie that I wouldn't have expected an average action and science-fiction movie loving guy like me to enjoy. In high-definition, the colors in this movie pop as if it were animated during the live-action portion. And, wow, Adams is a beauty in high-def---those big blue-green eyes!

 Boring.... Nov 05, 2008
I didn't enjoy this movie, it was boring, and I had one laugh, at Susan as an old lady, but boring.
Enchanted Blu-Ray Nov 02, 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 Oct 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 Oct 24, 2008
this movie is for anyone of all ages i bought it for my niece but we all loved it
