About this movie

Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway delivers an enchanting performance in this unforgettable, modern fairy tale costarring Vivica A. Fox, Cary Elwes, Hugh Dancy, Steve Coogan, and Minnie Driver. On the day she's born, Ella (Hathaway) is given the gift of obedience by her Fairy Godmother. Unable to refuse to do anything she's asked—no matter how wicked—Ella sets off to return the "gift." But her simple journey soon turns into an amazing magical adventure bursting with colorful characters, music, wit, and whimsy.

A horrendous adaptation of a beautifully-written children's book by beloved author, Gail Carson Levine. The plot is so cliché with too many modern pop culture references, aside from Anne Hathaway's rendition of Queen's Somebody to Love (which was nice) and the cast singing Elton John's "Don't Go Breaking My Heart." All in all, don't waste your time on this film when you could be reading its source material.
