Parent's Guide to Disenchanted

The movie "Disenchanted" is a 2022 American live-action/animated musical fantasy comedy, serving as a sequel to the 2007 film "Enchanted." The story follows Giselle, Robert, and their daughter Morgan as they transition from their bustling life in New York City to the quiet suburban town of Monroeville. Seeking a true fairy tale existence, Giselle uses a magical wish-granting wand, which inadvertently transforms the entire town into a fantastical realm and turns her into a wicked stepmother archetype. This magical disruption threatens not only her family's happiness but also the survival of her animated homeland, Andalasia. The film targets a broad family audience, exploring themes of adjusting to change, the complexities of "happily ever after," and the interplay between good and evil, all presented through musical numbers, whimsical fantasy, and comedic situations.

Additional Context

Best For Ages

Disenchanted is recommended for children aged 6 and up. The MPAA rated the film PG for "mild peril and language." While it features magical conflict, some intense scenes with a villainous persona, and mild bullying, these elements are generally resolved positively and fall within typical Disney family-friendly parameters. Younger viewers may find the temporary transformation of Giselle into a wicked character or the magical duels mildly unsettling.

Good to Know

The film is a sequel to "Enchanted" and continues the narrative style of blending animated and live-action elements. Its themes of finding 'happily ever after' in the complexities of real life, and the dangers of wishing for an idealized existence, offer discussion points for families. The general critical reception was mixed, with some finding it less magical than its predecessor. The runtime is approximately 119 minutes.
