Enchanted [US Import]

planned a scheme of work around this and 're telling's' of classic stories, works really well as a stimulus and engaged both boys and girls with a critical eye, as well as a nice rom-com style film I actually watched with my partner. Would recommend as its better than expected. A few bits miss a trick though and could loop bits together slightly better, and could also maybe reference more fairy tales, but for what it is, I loved it. I also love the actress as a princess as initially she is a bit grating but it really grows on you, and the few songs are also wonderful!

I have had the sheer delight to watch this film a few times now and it still holds me completely captive every time! It's a true fairytale for all us die hard romantics.Amy Adams plays Giselle, a hapless romantic who is looking for her one true love, Prince Edward, (James Marsden). Said Prince is also searching and when they meet it's love at first sight. This is all done in animation. But alas, Edward's evil stepmother has other plans for Giselle and tricks her by disguising herself as an old woman who only wishes the couple happiness. The old woman pushes Giselle into a wishing well and she, ( with us in tow!), is thrust into the very real world of Manhattan.Enter dreamy Patrick Dempsey as a cynical divorce lawyer. He rescues Giselle from the dangers of the city and takes her home to help her out. This is where the story really kicks in, and I won't go into any more detail, I don't want to spoil it for you. Susan Sarandon is on top form as the evil stepmother and Timothy Spall is great as the sleazy henchman. But top marks must go to Amy Adams and James Marsden. They are fantastic!All in all then, this is a great film to watch if you like a good love story with a twist. Watch it if you enjoy any Disney film. Happy viewing people!

great

Saw this at the cinema when it came out and laughed my socks off! Have since seen it on TV but wanted to show my grandaughter. It starts off in a very Disney esque fashion with a young girl talking to the woodland animals of her one true love, a prince is in the forest and hears her song, gallops to her and instantly decides they should marry. His stepmother however has different ideas & sends Gizelle to New York in the real world. Her adventure brings her to the arms of a very cynical single father who dismisses the idea of falling in love immediately but is clearly drawn to her. There are some great songs, a wonderfully funny clean up song involving town rats & cockroaches & a very scary ending with the step mother turning up and turning into an enormous blue dragon!!! It's got everything a girl (or indeed her grandmother) could want - get it NOW !!

This is Disney weaving some real magic, as they fondly send up the fairytale genre they are so strongly associated with.Both in cartoon form and in real life the characters in this film have a charm and real loveability about them. All the real-life actors clearly threw themselves wholeheartedly into their roles.There's not a mis-step in this charming tale of a would-be princess banished to the wilds of New York, only to be rescued by a cynical human rather than her enthusiastic prince charming.This story will have even the most hardened hearts melting, and the most doubting believing in true love and fairy tales.It works particularly well because of the utterly charming Amy Adams' wide-eyed innocence as Giselle. And she's so ably assisted by the rest of this fantastic cast, with James Marsden wonderful as the rather barmy prince, and Dr McDreamy himself as the human who captures her heart. Susan Sarandon does evil fantastically, and Timothy Spall is brilliant as her side-kick. And I defy anyone not to fall completely under the spell of Pip the chipmunk. He's beyond cute.This is a perfect family film, likely to beguile the guys as well as the girls. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed Enchanted when I first saw it on TV during Christmas so had to own a copy. It's a predictable storyline; female falling for her Prince Charming only she ends up in modern day Manhattan City being sent their by her wicked stepmother (Susan Surrandon). The songs are joyful to listen to I didn't know actress Amy Adams could sing! She plays Giselle really sweetly and you can't help but like the main song 'How do you know' kind of like Frozens 'Let it go'.The cast is good too and I equally notice that the ending song Ever Ever After is sung by country singer Carrie Underwood. Yes it's for kids, but I am a grown up and like it too!! The chipmunk character of Pip has some comical scenes as does the rather charming but immature Prince Edward.

Disney hitting the mark again!I know that Disney tend to aim their films at kids but lets be honest, we adults could do with a simple tale, well told and with plenty of humour too and once again, in this quirky offering, all those box's get well and truly ticked!One of the more fun aspects of the film as a whole is the way in which it draws on so many previous Disney films and happily, if gently, sends them up with witty digs and references.It also has some great music and songs and some brilliant dance scenes that manage to link various parts of the story but without getting in the way or seeming to be separate to the tale.All in all, a very clever and funny film that will leave you feeling glad that you took the time out to make yourself happy.

This is a great feel-good musical princess meets her prince movie. All characters showcase their eventual insecurities/doubts and so whilst it's a boy meets girl story it equally shows the flaws in the characters regardless of sex. In fact the female whilst airy and light is more certain of her place in the world than is the male lead and so it somehow works really well in modern film that tries to avoid gender stereotype and this film is very gendered but not in a necessarily bad way as it is possible to be strong and feminine.

Muy contento con esta adquisición, la busque por mucho tiempo hasta que la encontré aquí en Amazon..... Llego antes de lo pactado y en muy buen estado además de buen precio..... En el paquete vienen en bluray y dvd...El bluray es multiregion y trae versión español latino.... El dvd es región 1..... Excelente atención y servicio, estoy muy contento con Amazon.... Gracias....

Den här filmen är väldigt fin och jag tycker om den. Fast det blev retur på den eftersom dess omslagsbild på fodralet stämde inte och jag ångrar mig. Det kändes väldigt lurigt då jag trodde att dess omslagsbild på fodralet var bara med Giselle på. Jag har redan den här filmen så därför skickar jag tillbaka den som jag köpte här på Amazon.

Enchanted is a charming and delightful movie that will leave you feeling happy and uplifted. The mix of animation and live-action is perfect. If you're looking for a fun and heartwarming family movie, Enchanted is a great choice. Highly recommended!

Ich inde ja die alten Klassiker von Walt Disney (Arielle,...) die besten Filmeproduktionen dieser Filmgesellschaft.Das ganze mit dem Disney und Pixar kram war schon echt eine Enttäuschung, da ja mittlerweile alles in 3D produziert wird.Bei findet Nemo war es auch noch etwas neues und dieser Film hat mir auch gefallen, aber alles danach war nicht in meinem Interesse. Vor Findet Nemo wurde 1995 Toy Story zwar auch 3D gemacht, aber da war es noch absulut neu.Aber "Verwünscht" knüpfte an die altbewerten Klassiker an und somit entsand in den ersten 15 Minuten das, was Disney groß gemacht hat.Aber der Übersprung in die Reale Welt, war für den Film echt was neues, was es noch nie gegeben hat.Die reale Welt und die Märchenwelt vereint.Alle halten Gisele (die Prinzessin) für verrückt. Da es ja niemand glauben würde, weil man dies ja nur im Märchen kennt.Und alles was sie dabei tut und anrichtet hat seine Lacher bekommen.Es ist viel Kitsch dabei, aber gerade dieser Kitsch macht dies so lustig und perfekt.Aber auch die Märchenwelt wird gut dargestellt, es wird auch gezeigt, das man Märchen auch ohne Zeichetrick oder Computeranimation darstellen kann. Und dann noch genauso wie in einem Zeichentrickfilm.Es werden zwar auch Tiere in der Realen Welt animiert, weil es ohne dies ja auch nicht geht, aber es ist nicht der gesamte Film animiert.Am lustigsten fand ich die Szene, als Gisele mit Robert im Park spazieren geht und anfängt zu singen. Robert kann sie dann noch davon abhalten, aber als die Straßenmusiker genau das gleich Lied anfangen zu spielen fängt Gisele doch an zu singen und dann reißt es den ganzen Park mit.Diese Szene ist nicht nur lustig sondern hat Märchenzauber in der Realen Welt, so wie wir es aus den Klassikern von Walt Disney kennen.Ich habe lange nicht mehr so ein Meisterwerk gesehen und werde mir die DVD auf jeden Fall kaufen.Dieser Film ist echt nur zu empfehlen.

Starts with 10 minutes of animation. Then, like Alice through the looking glass, she's pushed into another world (NY), one she grows to appreciate and love better than her homeland.
