Review of Disenchanted (2022) by Jim222001 — 06 Feb 2023
A sequel that exists for the heck of it. So did Top Gun: Maverick and Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Disenchanted isn’t saved by nostalgia though, like those films. It does pick up though once Giselle (Amy Addams) makes a wish and turns the real world into a fairytale. Addams mostly shines when she is slowly turning into a wicked stepmother and struggles to stay good.
It’s just a decent sequel, not as magical as the first film. With the otherwise talented Alan Tudyk distractingly using his King Candy voice for a talking scroll. It’s unlike him to phone it in but he does here.
Surprisingly enough it’s Patrick Dempsey who steals the show when the spell makes him an overly heroic Prince.
