Ella Enchanted
Directed by Tommy O'Haver
Ella lives in a magical world in which each child, at the moment of their birth, is given a virtuous "gift" from a fairy godmother. Ella's so-called gift, however, is obedience. This birthright proves itself to be quite the curse once Ella finds herself in the hands of several unscrupulous characters whom she quite literally cannot disobey.

60 of 148 · most liked first#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Ella Enchanted, fun whimsical movie with good themes and concepts. Supergirl, not too serious action. How to Train Your Dragon, still holds up. Game Over, Man! like a long, violent, Workaholics episode.
positive · AI labelView post →…ok I actually never saw the movie “Ella Enchanted” (marketing made it look too Shrek-y 🤷🏻♀️), but the book it was based on meant a *lot* to me in middle & high school about a girl cursed to obey what anyone told her, and hide her identity …and I’m only just now connecting some mental dots about that

positive · AI labelView post →Y’know Ella Enchanted is a really good book, and I wish it had a better movie adaptation. Like the movie itself isn’t *bad* per se, but it is so far away from everything that makes the book as interesting and charming as it is. They changed so much it’s barely recognizable
neutral · AI labelView post →Emily Wilson is me when I was 12 and absolutely pissed the fuck off about the Ella Enchanted movie. And I do mean that as a compliment!
neutral · AI labelView post →there are so many movies/shows I have never watched because I HAVE to read the book first. and tbh most adaptations don’t live up to the movie I watch in my head anyway. BUT I will hear no slander against the Ella Enchanted movie. It’s camp and completely separate from quite honestly my fav book.

positive · AI labelView post →Ella Enchanted still amazing movie
positive · AI labelView post →I’m very good at ignoring both but Ella Enchanted is my favorite book but I actually love the movie (I know this is an unpopular opinion) even though it’s a terrible adaptation. It’s camp and I just keep them separate in my mind.
positive · AI labelView post →I also own a Kindle version. Ella Enchanted has always been on my shelf for at least 20 years. Do not speak to me about the movie if you want to live
neutral · AI labelView post →This is a bad movie with so many good actors. I think the problem is the Cinderella hook. I've seen a better version of this movie that's more compact and fun and it's called Ella Enchanted
positive · AI labelView post →I usually read manga about junior/highschool romance like *The Dangers in My Heart* and others like it (thus I don't usually watch the anime). When I do, I'm not self inserting into it but more so vicariously re-experiencing my own highschool romances and sometimes 'looking on' like a proud sibling of sorts, or more like the ghosts watching everything happening in *Ella Enchanted* (after they were murdered [was that Ella Enchanted?]). I often see people saying stuff like this in the comments,…

positive · AI labelView post →my wife has exacted her revenge for Hunt for Red October by showing me Ella Enchanted, an Anne Hathaway vehicle wikipedia describes as a “jukebox musical fantasy comedy film” from 2004. it is the single most woke movie I have ever seen.
positive · AI labelView post →Remember that movie Ella Enchanted where Anne Hathaway was under a spell where she had to say "yes" to literally anything she was asked to do? I think Kevin Hart has that same thing, but for doing commercials.

positive · AI labelView post →I watched a movie the other day called Ella Enchanted, with the beautiful and talented Anne Hathaway. The story is, as a child she was cursed by a witch to always do as she was told. Reminds me of Trump cursed at birth so everything he does turns to shit.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ella Enchanted and I suppose we can include Fairest. And I am a movie defender and it will be included. It’s camp, valid, and completely separate from the book in my mind.

neutral · AI labelView post →“20 Years Later, Ella Enchanted Is Still The Best Cinderella Adaptation” The book? Yes. Absolutely. But the film version is a godawful adaptation of the novel.
negative · AI labelView post →We deserve a better movie version of Ella Enchanted, but I will say that Anne Hathaway’s cover of Somebody to Love is probably my favorite
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching Ella Enchanted and holy crap, The Last Jedi definitely stole the throne room scene from this film lmao.
neutral · AI labelView post →ive never read the Ella Enchanted book but considering MY favourite book, Howl's Moving Castle, was adapted into a movie that feels tonally and spiritually totally different from the book i don't much care the movie is super different. the story it tells is well done and honestly important
positive · AI labelView post →RIP composer Nick Glennie-Smith, 74, whose film work included the scores for The Rock, The Man in the Iron Mask, The Lion King 2, and Ella Enchanted. He also collaborated with musicians such as Tina Turner, Phil Collins, Tina Turner, Paul McCartney, and Pharrell Williams.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm actually surprised in the case of Ella Enchanted, considering Disney also used to own that film, since it was released by Miramax Films. If Miramax is co-producing this series like they did with the City of God one on HBO Max, it's gonna be surprising seeing Paramount's name in a Disney+ show!
