A good movie

I wasn't sure what to expect from this flick but since I kept hearing good things about it, I thought I should check it out. It has been years since Disney had mixed animation with live action and, I must say, the end-result was pretty good. Indeed, the whole thing works on many level. It is an entertaining fairytale, it is an interesting homage to the genre and it is also a funny parody. Even though I'm not a big fan of Amy Adams (in my opinion, she always plays hysterical and obnoxious chicks) but she was very well cast and delivered a pretty good performance. The rest cast was just as good (Patrick Dempsey, James Marsden, Timothy Spall, Susan Sarandon, Julie Andrews), especially Susan Sarandon who remains one of the best actresses around and was just great playing the evil queen. However, it is obviously a rather standard and predictable story but since it is a fairytale, it was rather expected. To conclude, it is a well made and entertaining fairy tale, it really belongs to the Disney culture, and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you have young kids who will definitely love it.
