Movie Reviews of Happily N'Ever After [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: ENTERTAINING, BUT.............
Summary: 3 Stars
This animated feature is pretty good, but does lack the spark of some of the best animated features that have come out in recent years. The story works better for adults in my opinion as I think some of the jokes will go right over younger viewer's heads. The animation is decent and because I watched this on a HD cable channel, it made it look even better. The colors are vivid and reminded me of a fantasy video game. It's not the best animated film I've seen, but it's certainly not the worst. I rate it just below 3 stars.....2 3/4 stars!
Summary of Happily N'Ever After [Blu-ray]
Lionsgate Happily Never After (Blu-ray)Once upon a time will n'ever be the same again. Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, and Jack from the Beanstalk are all about to live happily ever after when the balance between good and evil gets thrown out of whack. It's up to Cinderella - aka Ella (Sarah Michelle Gellar) -to save the day by taking on her power-hungry stepmother, Frieda (Sigourney Weaver). But this time,Ella will have to do it without her Prince Charming (Patrick Warburton) as she joins forces with anunlikely army of dwarves, faries, and the Wizard's bumbling assistants, Mambo (Andy Dick) and Munk (Wallace Shawn). Your favorite fairy tales are turned upside down in this funny, fast-paced adventure that teaches the lesson that - no matter who youare - you have the power to affect how your storyturns out!
With the success of Shrek, more irreverent animated fairy tales (like Hoodwinked) were inevitable. Unfortunately, the original blockbuster set the bar so high--for characterization, humor, and heart--that other such 'toons are sure to seem redundant. Neither as clever nor as intricately rendered as the tale of the great green ogre, Happily N'Ever After is no exception. That said, small children may find it easier to follow, i.e. no Matrix references. As with the live-action Ella Enchanted, the CGI-animated story revolves around a downtrodden lass named Ella (Sarah Michelle Gellar). Her full name, naturally, is Cinderella. The man of her dreams is pea-brained Prince Humperdink (Patrick Warburton). Little does she know that royal dishwasher Rick (Freddie Prinze Jr., Gellar's real-life husband) has his eye on her. When the Wizard (George Carlin) goes off on a golfing vacation, he leaves bumbling assistants Munk (Wallace Shawn) and Mambo (Andy Dick) in charge. In no time at all, they get into a scuffle, and Ella's evil stepmother, Frieda (Sigourney Weaver), swoops in to take control of Fairy Tale Land. Her first order of business: Let the bad guys win. Consequently, Sleeping Beauty continues to doze, the Seven Dwarves wind up in jail, etc. Ella joins forces with Rick to set things right. Along the way, she realizes that the lowly lad has more princely qualities than the actual prince, and Frieda's reign turns out to be shorter than intended. It's not a bad idea, but the movie drags and the tunes are unmemorable. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
