Movies: Enchanted

Although I had heard only good reviews of this, it was still better than I expected - just adorable and enchanting. The filmmakers and actors (particularly Amy Adams) take a hokey idea and implement it so beautifully that it almost completely works (the only thing that really doesn't is why doesn't Robert realize that she is something miraculous when he sees her abilities with animals). The first half of the movie in particular is just absolutely great. Incredibly light and super-sweet and highly recommended. ****1/2

Gosh, that's the only thing you couldn't reconcile? :-) I absolutely loved the movie, but some movies you analyze and some you don't.

If you want a psychological explanation, Robert couldn't see the magic because he couldn't see magic even when it was in front of his face - until he falls in love with her.
