3.0 out of 5 stars More for Kids Then Adults, 5 May 2007
By Mark Baker (Santa Clarita, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Happily N'Ever After [DVD] [2007] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
Our story takes place in Fairytale Land, a kingdom populated by every fairytale character you've ever met. The balance between good and evil is maintained by a wizard (George Carlin) who makes sure that every story follows the book.

The time has come for Cinderella (Sarah Michelle Gellar) to have her fairytale ending. The Prince (named Humperdink. A nod to Princess Bride? Either way, he's voiced by Patrick Warburton) is hosting a ball on his twenty-first birthday. Cinderella is set to go and fall in love, just as the story dictates.

This doesn't sit well with Rick (Freddie Prinze, Jr.). He's a servant in the castle and has fallen for the beautiful Cinderella. Fighting a bad case of prince envy, he wonders why he never gets a happy ending.

While all this is happening, the wizard decides to go on vacation and he turns things over to his two assistants, Munk and Mambo (Wallace Shawn and Andy Dick). Mambo wants to add a bit of variety to the stories while the wizard is away, and the two start fighting.

Overhearing their fight is Frieda (Sigourney Weaver). She's Cinderella's evil step mother. She seizes the golden opportunity to take over the kingdom and tip the scales toward evil. Now it's up to Cinderella and a very reluctant Rick to return happy endings to Fairytale Land.

I'm always up for a good fractured fairytale, a genre that has become popular since the success of Shrek. I was looking forward to this one, but it failed to live up to expectations.

The biggest problem with the movie is the lack of development. Everything felt rushed, like it knew what it had to do and wanted to get it over with as quickly as possible. The characters were also shallow, and I never felt like I got to know them, which made it hard to root for them.

There were a few funny lines in the movie, but most of it was played surprisingly straight. The Prince was the one exception, with a great running joke about consulting his book before everything.

This isn't the detailed animation we are used to. It's stylized with lots of weird angels. It works, but considering what most studios are putting out, it is a bit surprising.

The voice cast does great, with one exception. There was something about Sigourney Weaver's voice that bothered me. It almost felt like she reading the script with. She showed hardly any personality.

Unlike many films that adults and kids can enjoy together, this one is strictly for the kids.

This review is from: Happily N'Ever After [DVD] [2007] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
Coming after the first Shrek and other fairytale-warping movies like Hoodwinked, this one is a dreary bore, with horrible animation, a bad storyline, and an unforgivable lack of imagination. It's about Cinderella and her stepmother, and the handsome prince and the royal dishwasher, but overall, it's a washout.

(To the tune of Déjà vu by Dionne Warwick)

This is inane
All they did was steal some shows
Without shame
Seeing this one's
Like others you've seen before
Not long ago

How can this be?
We just did Shrek one more time
Didn't we?
Feels like a clone
With a plot you've come to know
Long ago

Déjà vu
Could this be the worst thing that you'll view?
Might be true
Déjà vu
Could this be the one that really blew?
Say adieu

They keep remembering scenes
They keep dismembering scenes
Déjà vu

This is unkind
They have wasted all my time
And my rhyme
Looking at this
Time seemed more than what they showed
What a load!

Close this page now
You don't have to buy this one
Bad, and how
Somewhere before
You've seen ones that didn't bore
Or make you snore

Deja vu
Could this be the worst thing that you'll view?
Might be true
Déjà vu
Would this be the one that really blew?
Yes, it do!!!
