Enchanted (2007) scores a combined 2.40 out of 4 stars for Total Film (Matthew Leyland)Total Film (Matthew Leyland)
Subversive enough for older brother, sweet enough for kid sis, this cine-panto’s a safe if not spectacular choice for a Chrimbo family outing. The cartoon chipmunk almost steals it, but Adams’ dippy dazzle is the movie’s heart, soul and lungs. ...read the complete Enchanted movie review at Total Film (Matthew Leyland)
Enchanted (2007) scores a combined 2.40 out of 4 stars for Jam! Movies (Kevin Williamson)Jam! Movies (Kevin Williamson)
It's novel, it's amusing and it can't help but peter out in the third act as the screenplay trucks toward a Big Apple showdown between good and evil. By this time, Enchanted is merely coasting on Adams' considerable charm. It's enough. ...read the complete Enchanted movie review at Jam! Movies (Kevin Williamson)

“Disney,” how can we loathe thee? Let us count the ways. The brand has watered down numerous folktales, once vivid and far more entertaining, while now many take Disney's versions as holy writ. It's easy to think of Walt foremost as an egomaniac – t ...read the complete Enchanted movie review at Film Threat (--)

Stellar casting proves to be the Enchanted's strongest asset, and it's hard to imagine a more perfect performance in the lead role than the funny, effervescent and endearing one given by Amy Adams (Underdog, The Wedding Date), in her 30s, but playing a ...read the complete Enchanted movie review at Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
