Title: Huge fun
Product review: This is a fairy-tale movie, with all the trimmings - fairy godmothers, evil stepsisters, elves and giants, and a charming prince. Somehow, it's a fairy-tale gone off the rails. The fairy godmother should have her license lifted. Ella's first encounter with the prince is her "equal rights for elves" protest at his appearance. Her second encounter knocks her off her feet - literally, to the ground.Start to finish, this is howling funny. The premise is a little contrived, that Ella is "blessed" with obedience - forced to comply with any order given to her. Swallow that one (in a G-rated sort of way) and the movie moves along quite nicely, right to the happy ending. In fact, it's worth waiting around for that ending. It's an insane song and dance to a drippy disco-era duet, with Ella in a white minidress and go-go boots.There is absolutely nothing to take seriously here - but that's what some moments call for. Goofy, family-safe fun.//wiredweird
