Disney’s Enchanted is an animated fairy tale that meets modern, live-action comedy.

The story follows beautiful princess Giselle (Amy Adams) who is banished by an evil queen (Susan Sarandon) from her magical, musical animated land and finds herself in the gritty reality of the streets of modern-day Manhattan. Shocked by this strange new environment that doesn’t operate on a ‘happily ever after’ basis, she finds herself in a chaotic world badly in need of enchantment.
