In the animated land of Andalasia, the evil Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) wants to keep his stepson Prince Edward (James Marsden) from marrying Giselle (Amy Adams). Narissa pushes her through a portal which sends her into the real world. She finds herself popping out of a manhole in the middle of Time Square. Divorce lawyer Robert Philip (Patrick Dempsey) takes pity on the clueless princess and lets her stay with him and his daughter Morgan. He decides to marry Nancy Tremaine (Idina Menzel). Prince Edward and chipmunk Pip come through the portal to rescue Giselle. The Queen sends servant Nathaniel (Timothy Spall) over to poison Giselle with apples.

Amy Adams is perfect as Giselle. I am not so happy with Patrick Dempsey. He is way too whiny. He is no Prince Charming and they don't really develop the needed chemistry. I love some of funnier moments. Amy is fully committed and the curtains are hilarious. Marsden is just as committed to be completely clueless like Giselle and it is funny to see. They are great fish out of water.
