Review

Just when you thought the Shrek movies had said all there was to say in the genre of self-aware animated fairy tales, along comes Happily N'Ever After, which adds -- well, not much more, but enough to be worth making another movie? It's debatable. In terms of its financial resources, Vanguard Animation's Happily N'Ever After is more in line with the previous year's Hoodwinked, from Kanbar Animation. In other words, it's not really fair to compare it to a DreamWorks production like Shrek. The digital animation is relatively crude, the songs are bargain-basement thefts (Sopranos theme "Woke Up This Morning" is ripped off as a villain's march), and the vocal stars are the perennial B-list pairing of Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. -- 'nuff said. This Cinderella redux sputters out of the gate, with a heavy dose of Prinze's jokily self-referential narration, and a definite has-been quality to the scenarios. Even the supporting vocal talent seems pretty musty -- Patrick Warburton, Andy Dick, and Wallace Shawn are not only veterans of multiple animated movies, but have also played these same characters in those movies (a vapid stuffed shirt, a weaselly sidekick, a neurotic sidekick). But Happily N'Ever After does find its pace a bit in the second act, literally taking flight when a bunch of witches board their motor-powered broomsticks, trailing clouds of colored exhaust as they attack Snow White's cottage, defended by a combat-ready Seven Dwarfs. Their aircraft is not particularly original, either -- Harry Potter and the Star Wars films are both heavy influences -- but at least the context is somewhat new and interesting. In the end, that's the best Happily N'Ever After can hope for -- to find occasional bursts of originality within a played-out framework. ~ Derek Armstrong, All Movie Guide

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute, not serious, but funny, Dec 6 2007

By	B. Schmidtz (Saskatoon, SK Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Happily N'Ever After (Widescreen) (DVD)

I enjoyed the movie. I thought it looked good. The plot was funny enough and it did not have any moments that would be questionable for children. It had an interesting, if somewhat predictable, twist on fairy tales. There were several very recognizable voices in the cast.

2.0 out of 5 stars Happily N'Ever Purchase, Jun 23 2007

By	Amanda Richards "Modest to the extreme" (Georgetown, Guyana) - See all my reviews (TOP 10 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Happily N'Ever After (Full Screen) (DVD)

Coming after the first Shrek and other fairytale-warping movies like Hoodwinked, this one is a dreary bore, with horrible animation, a bad storyline, and an unforgivable lack of imagination. It's about Cinderella and her stepmother, and the handsome prince and the royal dishwasher, but overall, it's a washout.

(To the tune of D�j� vu by Dionne Warwick)

This is inane
All they did was steal some shows
Without shame
Seeing this one's
Like others you've seen before
Not long ago

How can this be?
We just did Shrek one more time
Didn't we?
Feels like a clone
With a plot you've come to know
Long ago

D�j� vu
Could this be the worst thing that you'll view?
Might be true
D�j� vu
Could this be the one that really blew?
Say adieu

They keep remembering scenes
They keep dismembering scenes
D�j� vu

This is unkind
They have wasted all my time
And my rhyme
Looking at this
Time seemed more than what they showed
What a load!

Close this page now
You don't have to buy this one
Bad, and how
Somewhere before
You've seen ones that didn't bore
Or make you snore

Deja vu
Could this be the worst thing that you'll view?
Might be true
D�j� vu
Would this be the one that really blew?
Yes, it do!!!
