Enchanted

A classic Disney fairytale collides with modern-day New York City in a story about a fairytale princess from the past who is thrust into present-day by an evil queen. Soon after her arrival, Princess Giselle begins to change her views on life and love after meeting a handsome lawyer. Can a storybook view of romance survive in the real world?

This is your typical fairytale of a handsome prince searching for his one true princess, but with an added twist of reality in the middle. While the film starts like (and makes reference to) many classic Disney animations, it soon switches into a 'real-life' comedy in which the fairytale characters try to cope with life in the real world (namely New York City).

I have to say it isn't as funny as it could have been, and given the situation they certainly could have put in a few more jokes for us adults. However your pre-teenage daughters are bound to love the romantic storyline and the cute CGI chipmunk (what is it with all the chipmunks this year?) - it's a perfect treat for the Christmas holidays.
