The film may be 17 years old, but with Disney continuing to follow its decades-long formula it is as if Enchanted‘s jokes are never going to date.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 28, 2024

Two joyous elements give Enchanted its spark - inspired and incisive songs by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz and the tour de force that is Amy Adams.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 11, 2021

It's a feast of references and gentle self-deprecation for Disney fans, a pleasant if uninventive romcom and an altogether nice time at the movies.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Oct 11, 2021

A blend of traditional animation and live action that is sure to delight younger audiences - and, possibly, older crowds too.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 24, 2020

Enchanted says it all.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 7, 2020

A clever throwback to a bygone era that is very much a product of this one; a clash of past and present combining for something truly magical.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 6, 2019

Disney's Enchantedis a fun homage to all the Walt Disney Animation Studios classics.

Director Kevin Lima's new film Enchanted is seemingly made for all the women who grew up on fairytale endings. But growing up is perhaps the wrong word to use. Permanently infantilized might be a better term.

In Enchanted, even the vermin whistle while they work.

| Original Score: B | Dec 10, 2014

In the hands of Adams, the evolution elicits as much sympathy as it does laughter, largely because she grounds every pivotal moment in wide-eyed kindness and generosity, pushing us to care about her fate.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 10, 2014

After about half-an-hour the comic steam is dispersed by whimsy, though Timothy Spall is pretty funny as the Evil Stepmother's varlet valet.

| Dec 10, 2014

Delightful stuff.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 10, 2014

This delightfully funny and smart family film certainly lives up to its title.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 10, 2014

By the time you are reading this, the ads will already be proclaiming that Enchanted is "enchanting," and for once they'll be spot on.

| Dec 10, 2014

The result is a fresh, feel-good crowd-pleaser that pokes affectionate fun at fairytale conventions while remaining true to their spirit.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 10, 2014

It's so sugary that the adults in the audience should beware of the dangers of Type 2 Diabetes, though overall this is a great film to take the kids to during the school holidays.

| Dec 10, 2014

Narrated by Julie Andrews with Marsden gleefully camping it up and Adams the personification of winning charm, only a Scrooge would deny the film possesses oodles of fun and wit. It's just not as enchanting as it deserves to be.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 10, 2014

Sometimes the big studios get it right. Enchanted is a high-concept fish-out-of-water tale that works on so many levels it's dizzying. Plus, it features a breakout performance by the luminous Amy Adams.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 10, 2014

Enchanted is as conventional as the films it tries to satirize.

| Dec 10, 2014

Amy Adams is a star in the making.
