5/5 Humor, Music, and Fairytale rolled into one.

If you like Enchanted, you'll like Ella Enchanted. It has the right mix of humor, music, and a fairytale could love. A nice twist on the typical fairy tale.

1/5 Horrible film
  by K. A. Herrick (ID, United States)
I absolutely HATED this movie! I LOVED the book, and I couldn't believe Ms. Levine capable of translating her fantastic book into this atrocity. Ella was horribly acted by Anne Hathaway, Char's uncle & the stupid snake weren't even IN the book, and everything else was just too fantastical. Where was the menagerie? Where was the boarding school? In my opinion, to have left out these crucial bits of story & add the uncle trying to kill Ella was ridiculous. I wish I could say something, anything positive, but it left me with a bad taste in my mouth. It was NOTHING I expected from my favorite book.

1/5 If You Love The Book .......
  by J. de Baun (Atlanta, GA)
This is one of the worst adaptions of a book that I've ever seen. The director of this "acid trip" movie must have been under the influence of drugs or a mental case. The target audience apparently was 10 to 16 year old girls. The campy choreography and "Abba" styled awful pop music, the inane script, the crude humor, the casting (undewear model, Heidi Klum as a horny giant?!?), and a hip-hop fairy godmother, all add up to a disastrous movie experience. Even the art direction and special effects are awful and cheap! This movie totally destroyed the spirit of the book.

5/5 My kids love it.
  by C. Helmke (Des Moines, Iowa)
My kids have rented this movie from the library so many times that I bought it for them. They can watch this movie over and over. My daughter is 6 and my son is 4 and the both love it. Some of it is over their heads about dealing with equal rights but they still enjoy watching it.
