Enchanted (2007)
7/10
Brilliant use of CGI

This is a perfect example of how CGI, a technique that today is often overused just to impress, can actually enhance a story. I really enjoyed the film, but what made it for me was the visual effects. I had to keep reminding myself that Pip was a CGI creation and not a real chipmunk--he looked so real. And it was only after the movie was over that I realized ditto for the dragon at the end. By that time I had completely suspended my disbelief and simply thought, hey, a dragon. It was also nostalgic to see the older Disney animation at the beginning, which at first was a shock, being used to the more sophisticated methods of today. While the story is predictable, that does not detract from the humor or the enjoyment of this piece. And did I mention that the CGI was great?
