Enchanted
The yester-year of Disney animation is distant in the past, and while you probably won’t be getting any epic, artistically-driven Sleeping Beauty-type features any instance soon, Enchanted offers those old classic scenes with characters ripped out of the cartoon world and delivered to a crazy and manic Manhattan. Amy Adams’ Giselle becomes the victim of her soon-to-be stepmother-in-law’s evilness and gets transported to the real world, where life isn’t animated and the world is very, very different. From there, we’ve got cartoon Prince Charmings

with James Marsden, who comes to save her, and real life beaus with McDreamy Patrick Dempsey. Oh yes, and of course — Susan Sarandon as evil mommie dearest doing her best reincarnation of Maleficent.

This is your normal Disney DVD — there are deleted scenes, bloopers, behind-the-scenes featurettes about the film’s “cinematic wizardry,” and a pop-up adventure with Pip, Giselle’s little friend.
