Nov 18, 2022 · Although it's gorgeous to look at (especially Joan Bergin’s costumes), “Disenchanted” fails to truly rekindle the magic or the biting wit of its predecessor. Like most things stamped Disney these days, the film feels just like the mass-produced bobbles for sale at the Disney store.
Frustrated that her happily ever after hasn’t been easy to find, she turns to the magic of Andalasia for help, accidentally transforming the entire town into a real-life fairy tale, placing her...

Disenchanted is now streaming on Disney+.
Back in 2007, Enchanted gave us a fun and fresh take on the fairy tale, showing us that everyone’s happily ever after looks a little different no matter what the storybooks may say. Along with that new take came songs that remain stuck in our heads to this day and an “I’m angry” gif that still hasn’t lost its sparkle. Obviously, the real question is whether or not the sparkle has dulled from the film itself as it returns for a sequel 15 years later. And that, my friends, is kind of a complicated answer!
It’s not that Disenchanted has less potent magic than Enchanted did in 2007; it’s just a little bit different than it was back then. Perhaps more pointedly, the demographic excited for this movie is a little bit different, too – in short, folks who enjoyed the simple charms of the original are at different parts of their lives now, and may feel disappointed to see the new swings the sequel’s taking, no matter how much many of them work. Though, I will say that the music in Disenchanted doesn’t have the same kind of timeless feel as Enchanted did and there’s only so much the renowned Idina Menzel’s Nancy can do with silly lyrics.

Disenchanted keeps its focus on bringing a different kind of magic than 2007’s Enchanted, which may result in some mixed reactions among fans hoping to see more of the same. However, the movie’s only real sin is some dull lyrics for rough songs. Amy Adams’ return as Giselle is a charming one, and families will have plenty of fun sitting down to wat...
