Enchanted

2007 concoction directed by Kevin Lima starring Patrick Dempsey, Amy Adams, Susan Sarandon, James Marsden, Timothy Spall. A fractured fairy tale.

Starts as a Disney cartoon with all the cliches then takes a turn as Princess and other characters are whisked away to the real world.

Some cute "fish out of water" elements and charming. Parents may enjoy it more than the kids. Some genuine laughs but overly long.

Amy Adams is great as the princess and Timothy Spall is wonderful as the evil Queen's henchman. But the rest of the cast is outdone by a chipmonk!

The Princess Bride

Without a doubt, my favorite movie of all time.

Fractured fairy tale has it all: adventure, comedy, swashbuckling action, a smart script, and great characters.

1987 comedy from Rob Reiner starring Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, Robin Wright, Peter Falk, Billy Crystal, Carol Kane, Chris Sarandon, Christopher Guest, Wallace Shawn, Andre the Giant, and Fred Savage.

Farm boy Wesley, in love with Robin Wright, leaves the rural life to seek his fame and fortune, becoming the Dread Pirate Roberts (thanks to a franchise arrangement with the former Dread Pirate Roberts). Returning after years, he finds his beloved engaged to an evil Prince and sets out to eventually win her back. But first he must save her from a kidnapping plot.

Absurd, silly, and wonderful, the cast is perfect and the humor smart.
