Ella Enchanted

This weekend I went to go see Ella Enchanted. Normally, I would not step foot into a theater where something like this was taking place. My 5 year old, who normally riots at the idea of going to the movies (I don't know why) asked in advance to see the movie and was really excited about it.

As expected, the special effects were horrible. I think that they must have shot the entire movie in front of a green screen for the number of times the characters looked like they were out of synch with the scene around them

The acting wasn't any better with horrible performaces by Minnie Driver and...oh wait no one else famous decided to work on this crappy movie.

My wife (Tara) seemed to like the musical routines, but what can you expect, she is a chick.

All in all the movie was awful and I wish I could get that 90 minutes of my lfe back. Even the 5 year old said "That wasn't a very good movie."

A simply shocking movie. Surely the worst film any of these actors will ever work on.

Please don't rent this - watch Shrek again, and again.

My three year old simply LOVES this movie, especially the music. Much more than Shrek. Go figure.
