The film may be 17 years old, but with Disney continuing to follow its decades-long formula it is as if Enchanted‘s jokes are never going to date.

Two joyous elements give Enchanted its spark - inspired and incisive songs by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz and the tour de force that is Amy Adams.

It's a feast of references and gentle self-deprecation for Disney fans, a pleasant if uninventive romcom and an altogether nice time at the movies.

A blend of traditional animation and live action that is sure to delight younger audiences - and, possibly, older crowds too.

A clever throwback to a bygone era that is very much a product of this one; a clash of past and present combining for something truly magical.

Director Kevin Lima's new film Enchanted is seemingly made for all the women who grew up on fairytale endings. But growing up is perhaps the wrong word to use. Permanently infantilized might be a better term.

In the hands of Adams, the evolution elicits as much sympathy as it does laughter, largely because she grounds every pivotal moment in wide-eyed kindness and generosity, pushing us to care about her fate.

After about half-an-hour the comic steam is dispersed by whimsy, though Timothy Spall is pretty funny as the Evil Stepmother's varlet valet.

By the time you are reading this, the ads will already be proclaiming that Enchanted is "enchanting," and for once they'll be spot on.

The result is a fresh, feel-good crowd-pleaser that pokes affectionate fun at fairytale conventions while remaining true to their spirit.

It's so sugary that the adults in the audience should beware of the dangers of Type 2 Diabetes, though overall this is a great film to take the kids to during the school holidays.

Narrated by Julie Andrews with Marsden gleefully camping it up and Adams the personification of winning charm, only a Scrooge would deny the film possesses oodles of fun and wit. It's just not as enchanting as it deserves to be.

Sometimes the big studios get it right. Enchanted is a high-concept fish-out-of-water tale that works on so many levels it's dizzying. Plus, it features a breakout performance by the luminous Amy Adams.
