Movie Review – Happily N’Ever After

Posted by chris On February - 17 - 2009

happily2 This one’s a bit of an oldie, but I watched it again this weekend, and figured I should write my 2 cents about it.
Yes, you probably guessed by the title that it’s one of those cartoon movies spoofing the fairytale genre. I know, it’s been done to death, with Shrek and Hoodwinked and many more. And well, this one doesn’t really bring anything new to the table.
 
The story follows Ella (yes… Cinderella) and he longing for her Prince Charming… well, that’s where the story takes a left turn from the original. Instead, the wizard (voiced by the late George Carlin), who is in charge of making sure that everything in Fairytale land goes according to the book, heads off on vacation, leaving his servants, Mambo and Munk in charge. Well things go terrible wrong and the Evil Stepmother (Sigourney Weaver) takes control.
 
The movie also stars some 3D animation regulars, such as Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr., Patrick Warburton and Wallace Shawn.
 
The modeling is very simple and you can tell they were really using the strong colors to help with moods.
 
It’s a good time waster, but unless you’re either obsessed with seeing every 3D movie out there(which I am), or really love this genre (which I do)… I wouldn’t rush to rent it.
