Movie Reviews of Happily Ever After
Movie Review: it's THE WORST!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
For the 20 minutes I suffered through this with my 4 1/2 year old, for some reason I kept thinking that this was like the play that was put on by the amateur theater troupe in "Waiting for Guffman", and that somebody must have thought they were being serious when they wrote it. The song "Stools" in Guffman crossed my mind more than once. And who in the world cajoled these well known actors into these speaking roles?
The Ed Asner owl was ludicrous. Why would an owl ever be smoking cigar? And some of the jokes were slyly off color, too. Of course they were way over the head of my daughter, but I am of the opinion that even if something is over their head, they are still hearing it and getting the garbage into their little minds.
The "dwarfelles" were so dumb...why would dwarfs possess magic? and in charge of "the earth", "the thunder," etc. And what in the world was Mother Nature doing in this story? Why didn't they just add in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny too?
Finally, the animation was atrocious. It reminded me of those 70's era cheap cartoons where the characters are perfectly still while the mouths are animated.
To its credit, my daughter did like it. She was pretty sad that I turned it off, but I just couldn't stand it anymore...and I've watched a lot of awful, silly cartoons. Before you call me a shrew, please know that I drove back to the rental store and let her pick another DVD to replace this one...20 minutes each way, and she chose "The Last Unicorn" over 101 Dalmations and even the surprisingly okay Barbie As... movies.
I'm sorry for the adjectives I've used: dumb, stupid, etc. My vocabulary is usually much stronger, however, this movie really begs usage of these descriptors.
