Enchanted walks a tight rope: trying to make fun of the Disney princess movies while still actually being a Disney princess movie. I think it succeeds and is frightfully adorable. There are plenty of fine performances, but Amy Adams really carries the show with a realistic portrayal of her initially very unrealistic character. We heartily recommend it particularly to all of our friends with princess-obsessed girlchildren, but everyone else as well.

Emma, Simon, myself, Charlotte, and Maria all adored this film. You are right - it was a tricky balance and it pulled it off well. Amy Adams was phenomenal.

We loved it too and Amelia isn't even into princesses anymore. Fun for kids and adults alike. Lots of laughs and over-the-top dance numbers (my favorite).
