Wonderful movie, conbiming fairy-tale setting and magic, with real-life emotions and actions, (given the circumstances.) Anne Hathaway totally SHINES in this performance as a girl born in a kingdom where every child is given a "gift" a birth. Unfortunately, Ms. Hathaway's character's "gift" is............obedience. She has to obey EVERYONE, even if she knows they are wrong. When she falls in love with a prince, (and he with her), she STILL can't show her true feelings, because the uncle who wants to take over the throne won't let her. Merriment and delight for all -- and, (SPOILER!) a happy ending, despite everything. PRODUCTION TRIVIA: Ms. Hathaway had been playing princesses in many movies before this one -- including THE PRINCESS DIARIES, No. 1, and No. 2. Unlike some actresses, Ms. Hathaway had finally tired of playing princesses and wanted OUT of doing this. Howeever, as she found the script and message of ELLA ENCHANTED so meaningful and....er....enchanting to her, she accepted the role in "Ella Enchanted", as her one last "princess film". This film is a REAL winner. I bought it because I saw it on Cable TV, (after waiting YEARS, because I missed it at the movies). The wait was worth it! A totally enchanting movie, in directing, acting, music, script, story, scenery, camera angles....and ALL OTHER areas of production!Read full review

This is the kind of movie kids should be watching! Anne Hathaway gives an adorable performance as Ella, a girl betwixed with a spell that makes her perform everything asked of her! Not only does this cause Ella to never say no, it also costs her friendships and possible love interests. Enjoy the moral of the story that "saying no isn't always a bad thing" especially when it comes to your heart!
