It was really not very good… the actors did great, but the storyline was soooooo disappointing!!!!! There was too much going on, and it had nothing of the classic simplicity of the original.

Fell asleep. Takes away all the charm and heart of the first movie. If you liked the first one do yourself a favour and skip this one.

I know it's hard to say but Enchanted was a perfect way to laugh at fairy tale tropes. It worked and laid the foundation that Shrek did very well: making fun of these stories. This belated sequel lives up to its title, it's so disenchanted and lacks that originality, freshness and disruption that made the original such a classic.

If I think about it, Disenchanted has the same problem as Hocus Pocus 2: the low budget is too noticeable and with it the technical limitations and it is only sustained by nostalgia. Personally, I think Hocus Pocus 2 stands out more since it explores a little - just a little - the history of the Sandersons and gave an unexpected twist to the ending. Disenchanted proposed a rather interesting plot twist, but it doesn't work for me… Expand

The first movie was so fresh and so fun, but this one felt old, tired,and ridiculous. It was just so cringe-worthy, and although I think Amy Adams is a wonderful actress, she just cannot carry a young ingenue vibe anymore, and the script should not have asked her to try. Extremely disappointing.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Undoes the first film in the first few minutes. The music isn't as good this time and feels like padding. Cheaper than the first one despite being years later. Makes the characters unlikable for no reason, and they get really brain dead by the end.
The villian could have been defeated easily, yet wasn't because the character became dumb for the storh and the wish shouldn't have worked since it was too broad and shouldn't have undone everything. Also why does a clock decide when it's midnight? Do digital clocks not exist? This film raises too many questions in regards to the character and plot choices. It's so frustrating.
Just watch the first film. It's smarter and a Disney classic. This is a cheap sequel made years after the fact to cash in on the original film.
P.S. James Marsden (i.e. Donut Lord from the Sonic movies) was the best part for the 2 minutes he got. What a waste of a great character.… Expand

I would've preferred to see a protagonist that has thoroughly changed and become hardened by the real world on a quest to reignite the child-like innocence and sense of adventure she had in the first film. Instead, we got a story that's thematically not executed clearly, with forgettable characters, and just uninteresting ideas to offer. I was wanting to like the film since I loved the first but every turn the film made was just a missed opportunity for something genuinely great. The first few disappointments in the first hour of the film were sad, and the latter half with more disappointments started to make me angry that such little time and effort was put into the script.… Expand
