Movie: Enchanted

My parents, uncle and aunt took me for a movie at 1-Utama this evening. The movie we watched was ‘Enchanted‘ by Walt Disney. This is a fairy tale story which combined elements from ‘Alice in Wonderland’, ‘Snow White and Seven Dwarfs’, ‘Sound of Music’, ‘King Kong’, ‘Batman’ and ‘Cinderella’ and turn it into a wonderfully nice and entertaining movie.
The story started as a animation story where Giselle (Acted by Amy Adams) fell in love with her Prince Edward (James Marsden) and was supposed to get married. If they were to get married, then Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) would have to step down to make way for the newly wed couple. Queen Narissa plotted to kill Giselle. In the palace ground, she pushed Giselle into a well. She kept falling as if the well was bottomless until she reached a man-hole in New York.
From an animation story, it turned into real life movie. In New York, Giselle met a single father Robert (Patrick Dempsey) and his daughter Morgan (Rachel Covey). Initially, Giselle was supposed to stay overnight at Robert’s place. Eventually, Morgan started liking Giselle and they began great friends.
When Queen Narissa discovered that Giselle was alive, she send her sidekick to kill Giselle. When he failed, Queen Narissa decided she should go to New York herself to do the job.
This is when the fiery battle to kill Giselle which ended as how every fairy tale should end. Giselle was saved by Robert with a kiss after she fell into a deep sleep from eating a poison apple. Queen Narissa was killed in a battle with Robert.
