Essay#1 on Enchanted

The film “Enchanted” is one the best projects from Walt Disney Movies. It has also won so many awards in the Entertainment Industry. However, Kevin Lema has directed the movie, and the script is provided by Billy Kelly. There many adventurous things in the movie to enjoy it. Although it is a Disney movie, the grownups also love to watch it. When the movie starts, it opens up with a storybook taking the audience to a magical world. It reaches a castle far away in a forest. Through the journey it also touches the real world, where it stays for a while. There are so many characters in the movie who belong to both magical world and the real world. There is a deep message along with a sweet humor in the movie. With the help of "Enchanted," Lema is giving a message of kindness, humbleness, innocence, and sincerity, by comparing a magical world with the real world by using "magic."

The first fascinating thing about this film is that the director has gracefully linked the magical world with an actual world. Everyone on the earth is aware of the reality and certainty of the world. At the same time, People adore a world which is different from the reality and which has magic in it. It can be seen through the admiration of people for the books and films which are based on the things far away from reality. Likewise, the magic and fairy tales have captivated the kids and adults. Enchanted is one of those movies but it has a unique concept. It has connected the magical world with a real world without disappointing the audiences. It is one of the unique ideas.

Moreover, seeing the animal helpers in the real world makes the movie more interesting. It is usual to see animals in the fairy tales doing the chores and speaking to each other. However, watching the rats cleaning a toilet is something humorous, and it makes the audience imagine things. It is such a good transition of the magical world to the actual world that everything seems real and natural. The birds are singing, and cockroaches being obedient to a princess in a New York City compel the audiences to wish for magic in their lives for once. There is one difference from other fairy tales that rats, cockroaches, and flies have replaced the mice, sparrows, and fawns in the real world. Likewise, the director has nicely directed the whole movie from animation to real world.

By using “Magic”, the director has revealed the realities of the world, where people have forgotten about the positive things. Through this movie, Lama has shown a mirror to the world that the individuals of this world have been selfish, impatient, greedy and cynic. At the same time, the role of Giselle in the movie convinces the audience that what is missing from this world. She is helpful, kind, humble, innocent and sincere. All these good characteristics were harmful to her in the real world because people have forgotten these values. Even, people have stopped believing in honesty and kindness. Therefore, the director is trying to get the attention of the audience to positivity.

In conclusion, with the usage of magic Lama has beautifully conveyed the message of kindness, humbleness, innocence, and sincerity, by comparing a magical world with the real world. It shows the real world that what is it missing and how would it look like to the creatures from other worlds. The objective of linking both worlds give hope and courage to the people to learn from their mistakes. Moreover, giving it a humor touch makes the film more exciting.
