This movie looks like it can't possibly not be light-hearted and cute. Perfect for the holidays. I talk a good game about going to the movies but never do! Hope to see this one. http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/enchanted/

NYH, it's for sure on my list of films I want to see. I go to the movies in spurts, and I haven't been for quite a few weeks. Can't remember the last one I saw.

It can't be bad with Patrick Dempsey in it.

Yes, my DD has already asked if we can go to it (she usually goes to movies with her dad on their weekends together). She thinks it is more of a mom/daughter show, and if PD is in it I guess I will have to give in and go with her...LOL!

My poor fiance has been told that he will be going to this movie with me. I saw a sneak peak preview on MTV last night. I had no idea Idina Mendzel is also in it. Even more reasoning to go now!

Idina, one of my daughters' favorite performers EVER!! LOL She was in Wicked and Rent just to name two. My girls have been itching to see this movie but Idina being in it will put them in a frenzy. LOL Only thing that would make a movie MORE desirable would be Kristen Chenoweth having a role.

And how can I forget... she (Idina) is married to one of the sexiest men on the planet, Taye Diggs.

RUN do not walk to this movie!! It is absolutely a charmer. Amy Adams is just perfect, she plays this role with perfect abandon.. we never stopped smiling the whole movie. LOL

Pamy, it might be a more 'girly' movie. Although I haven't seen it so I'm talking out my tush here. LOL. Personally it's top of my must-see list.

Pamy, few years ago we bought my inlaws passes to go see Chicago. They called us the next day and said they walked out after 15 minutes because it was possibly the worst movie they had ever seen, had no redeeming quality whatsover. Said it was total crap and that there was no dialogue, only music (duh). Point it that they don't like musicals and probably should have been awake for the last 50 yrs and known that Chicago was a musical. LOL In the same way I wouldn't expect a 12 yr old boy to even agree to see this movie much less enjoy it. It's a total girlfest. Cinderella, Snow White, etc all rolled up in one. A few big musical numbers as well. Its sweet, sweet, sweet, not a drop of testoterone to be found.

LOL well that I could understand but even the Mom hated it! she rated it lower than Dylan! Dylan said he gave it a 3 (out of 10) and she gave it a 2. DYlan said only reason I added a point is cuz the graphics/spfx were fantastic. (I just love the fact that he notices those things, I would love for him to get into that!)

All the reviews have been really good here. The critic in our paper said Amy Adams makes this movie wonderful.

pamy - it sounds like YOUR kind of movie. not everyone likes those kinds of movies. i know my husband would never want to watch it, nor would some of my friends. but holly and i want to see it desperately. we also watch the barbie movies on video.

My daughter and I saw the trailers in the theater a while back, and she made me promise to take her. It looks like it'll be fun, so she and I will see it this weekend while her dad sees American Gangster. What a combo, huh?

well, gang, i saw both enchanted and american gangster today with the dh. he liked both...but there really is no comparison. enchanted is a lovely light hearted film and there were oodles of kids there. gangster was simply a magnificently made film and denzel was fantastic.

Dovez, all due respect, but in my world, using "Denzel" and "fantastic" in the same sentence is redundant...lol And I thought it odd that while DD & I watch Enchanted her dad is watching Gangster. You got me beat, Dove! Which did you watch first? Gritty reality first, or light hearted fare?

We saw this last night, wanted to go to August Rush but it wasn't at this theater. Anyway, about Enchanted - neither of us thought Amy Adams as Giselle had much personality and that sorta dragged the whole movie down. Patrick Dempsey (sp?) was great though and he had the best line when he said he didn't even know the song as the whole park broke out in song & dance in typical movie musical style to his complete confusion. The rest of the cast were good too and the Disney in-jokes were cute. The 2-D animation and CGI (if that's what they used) animals were terrific. I noticed in the credits that some actresses who've voiced past Disney characters made cameo appearances in the film. Trailers: Alvin & the Chipmunks - really, really gross bathroom humor in this clip. Why do they do that?! And am I the only one who thinks this movie would have seemed cooler if they did it in a retro 1950s style? I can just picture Jason Lee dressed in a mock turtle neck and cardigan. But no, it's modern and the Chipmunks were in hip hop clothes. Egads. Oh well, maybe it'll work. The Spiderwick Chronicles - never read the books but the movie looks great. College Road Trip - Martin Lawrence and Donny Osmond in a movie together?! The Water Horse - I still think the baby Nessie is beyond adorable. P.S. I Love You - I've seen him in Dear Frankie but somehow never noticed how handsome Gerard Butler is. National Treasure 2 - saw the first movie on DVD and was pleasantly surprised. This one looks like it could be fun too.

Dovez, I saw Enchanted and then American Gangster on the same day too! Quite a contrast there. I really enjoyed Enchanted and spotting all the references to the Princesses we know and love so well. why someone would take 2 12 year old boys to see this film is really beyond me. What were they thinking? Not a movie for adolescent boys. And I completely disagree about Amy Adams dragging the movie down. She was perfect as the princess because she was exactly as she's supposed to be: not a lot of depth, just a lot of cheerfulness. She really was an animated princess come to life.
