Breather Episode before it kicks off royal with 3 Tickets to hell, this because it wouldn't be a film I would pick, I can't tell when the cover is this bland.
Hell, all I get is that Anne Hathaway is in this and her character must be the eponymous Ella!
Sometimes, I'm convinced that films like these want to be reviewed by guys like me!
After seamlessly incorporating the Miramax ( The Nazi Rat's Edgy Cousin!) logo into a sweeping landscape of a fairy tale world, a familiar voice recites a expository rhyme, the voice reveals to be...
Eric Idle!
Every time I see one of the Pythons do a film like this, another piece of my childhood dies.
So When Ella was born, despite the stern warning from her mother and aunt, (Minnie Driver) Lucinda, a fairy godmother, and the most Inept magic user since Clare in Mystic Force, cannot get a baby to stop crying, so she casts a spell of Obedience on the child.
Really? We are doing the "magical equivalent to real world thing" then if that's the case, we just saw this world's answer to... A malpracticing care worker! Try watching this film now with the same
whimsy!
7 years pass and despite the spell manifesting itself to make her literal minded and compliant to suggestion, Ella has a loving family and a stable childhood...
AAAAAAAND! FIVE MINUTES LATER, MOM GETS PALE MAKEUP DISEASE AND DIES! But not before revealing Mandy is a house fairy and cannot undo godmother Magic, her last order is never to tell anyone about the curse which will become a Gateway for the Hi-jinks and Bullshit in the next 80 minutes!
Par the course for a modern fairytale, Ella's father remarries a wicked stepmother called Olga (Joanna Lumley) and her two prince-obsessed daughters,Bulk and Skull Hattie and Olive, The Prince is the Nephew of the Cruel King Edgar who banished all the Humanoids to the forests, but who cares when the Prince is so dreamy
...
So it's the "I HATE DONALD TRUMP, BUT I'D SMASH IVANKA'S BACKDOORS IN!" ARGUMENT?
We learn in school that not only the king may have killed his brother, but giants and elves are enslaved to be farmers and entertainers during a debate class, her opponent, Hattie soon discovers that Ella has a curse on her, because Hattie is evil, and evil people in Disney films are not idiots!
Said Prince, Prince Charmont (Yes Really!) is riding with his uncle king Edgar and LOOK AT THIS BASTARD!
Hell, i'm not supposed if this DOESN'T play in the Background!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwaoRYnHG8A
The king fills his nephew with lies of treachery as they head to the opening of the mall, However the Oblivious Charmont cares nothing about the affairs of state. It's obvious the King has set his nephew up as a foppish Figurehead!
At the Opening Ella and her Token Asian friend, protest the kings Orgecide, Pissing off Hattie, using the spell to make Ella go home, the groupies chase the prince and knocks down and falls for Ella.
Of all the girls in the kingdom, His royal Himbo falls for The Sinn Fien Cindydoll!
WELL OF COURSE HE FUCKING DOES!
Being magiced off meant Ella has left her purse at the mall (it's not like she has a childhood friend who may have figured out the curse at a young age there, oh wait!) so when the prince tells her to "wait there" the spell pins Ella's inertia in the line of fire of a carriage, the Prince rescues her, but is seen by Hattie, who puts 2 and 2 together and gets 5!
As a Punishment for "Stealing her man" Hattie and Olive take in great pleasure
in making Ella Steal at the mall and run! Ending with Ella being told to freeze by a Guard, making her actually Time Freeze in Midair!
Hattie makes Ella tell her mother that Rita the Token Asian Made her do it! The spell make Ella tell her only friend she doesn't want to see her again!
Angry that the curse has lost her only friend (one that may have figured out that something was amiss long ago because why would she remain her friend for so long?) Ella resolves to break her curse. To which Mandy gives her niece a talking Magic book (which is also her boyfriend) who track down anyone in the kingdom!
Which brings me to this point...WHY NOT TELL HER THIS SOONER? WHY NOT BEFORE THINGS GOT BAD? OK PLOT CONVENIENCE AND TROPES, BUT IF YOU EXPOSIST EARLY THAT LUCINDA "GIVES THE WORST GIFTS" (PLURAL!) THEN THAT MEANS SHE HAS GETTING AWAY WITH THIS SHIT FOR YEARS! SO IN FULL FAIRY TALE CONVENTIONS, THIS MEANS AN EPIC QUEST MUST HAPPEN, THOUGH IT'S HARD TO JUSTIFY WHEN THE VILLAIN'S M.O BOILS DOWN TO "WHOOPS! MY BAD!"
Because Ella's curse is obedience and not lack of free will, Ella uses her errands to get the evil family sick enough not get in her way, walking through the forest, she rescues an elf from bandits! the elf whose name is pronounced 20 different ways in this film will be called Sal from now on, because that was the first pronunciation i heard, wants to become a lawyer but King Edgar has forced all Elves to be Vaudevillians.
WEAR A HAT TO COVER YER EARS! JUST SAYIN'!
Ella gets an invite to the ball, Olga sees this as chance to marry Hattie to Charmont instead!
Continuing on her Quest, she is captured by Orges, and nearly eaten until Charmont rescues her again, unbeknownst to anyone, he is being spied by Hisssston. Sal tries to make his case with the prince, but the prince is too much of a fop to care!
Arriving in Giant Country, Ella learns Lucinda has already left the giant wedding party and is currently being Arrested for Drunk-Flying! Charmont is distressed that the Gentle Giants are being enslaved to farm on lands they once owned 20 hours a day (Well not too sad as he have a Dance party and a wedding reception!) Charmont discusses that once he is coronated in 2 days, he will start discussion to change the law, making Hisssston slither out of view!
Being told to stay, Charm tells slip that the Castle holds the census for every citizen in the Kingdom of Frell. The Giants find Sal and accost him into singing, but instead the spell makes Ella sing! Well it wouldn't be a Nazi Rat film without it! But did Hathaway have to BUTCHER! Somebody To Love By Queen?
...But it is enough to make Charm fall for Ella, he asks her to kiss her, but this time, despite the curse she wants it to happen!
Charmont and Ella arrive at the castle at the same time, Hattie and Olive are taking a tour of the castle, they run into king Edgar, and Hattie tells the king about the curse.
Hell, all I get is that Anne Hathaway is in this and her character must be the eponymous Ella!

| FIRST THEY HATE EACH OTHER, NOW THEY LOVE EACH OTHER! AM I A ROBOT? |
Giving that they already established that every species in this world has it's own kingdom, MAYBE THEY SHOULD HAVE STARTED TO FIND THE FAIRY IN FAIRY KINGDOM FIRST?
Ella meets the king and he takes great joy in exploiting the curse! she orders Ella, to kill Charm at the stroke of Midnight with the dagger she is giving when he propose to her!
To stop this finding Lucinda has become more imperative, but remember earlier I said that Lucinda should have being held responsible for her actions...well she has!....at the expense of finishing this film early! With Benny the Book abandoned in the castle. Ella has no way to find Lucinda, the only way to stop Charm from getting hurt, is to get Sal to tie her to a tree, Get all the elves giants and ogres to invade the castle and not release her til after midnight, since the order was specific!
BUT GUESS WHO TURNS UP?
AND DESPITE ELLA TELLING HER THAT LUCINDA CURSE MADE HER LIFE A MISERY, LUCINDA ONLY GOES AND MAGIC'S AWAY THE CHAINS AS THE SPELL COMPELS HER TO KILL HER ONE TRUE LOVE!
Driven by forces she can't control, Ella arrives at the castle. Charm takes her to the hall of mirrors to propose, but Ella figures out that if she gives an order to her own reflection, she can break her own curse!
WAIT WHAT?
IT WAS AS EASY AS THAT? THERE WAS NO NEED FOR A QUEST? THAT WAS CURE THE WHOLE TIME? THE WHOLE TIME?
WAIT WHAT?
IT WAS AS EASY AS THAT? THERE WAS NO NEED FOR A QUEST? THAT WAS CURE THE WHOLE TIME? THE WHOLE TIME?
So lets finish this!
Edgar catches Ella and puts her to death, Sal and all the other humanoids stage an uprising, Ella is rescued and no longer bound by the curse able to tell charm everything, Edgar admits killing Charmont's father for the throne, Benny the Book is turned into a man. and Edgar is killed....by putting on a crown intended for Charm that he himself poisoned!
And so the film ends with Ella and Charm married, because in the words of Marge Simpson, Nothing Solves Everything Forever Like Marriage! What's that? The Elves, Giants and Ogres are Still second class Citizens? FUCK YOU, MARRIAGE ENDING! Olga is now a richer golddigger because she is now the Queen Mother? YEAH FUCK YOU, MARRIAGE ENDING!
THANKFULLY, THIS IS A DVD REVIEW BLOG, SO HIDDEN IN THE EXTRAS IS THE ALTERNATE ENDING OR THE REAL ENDING!
Ella's father divorces Olga with Sal has his lawyer, but Olga quickly gets her claws into a newly knighted Ogre! Lucinda is accosted by Hattie to make her betrothed to a prince, but when Lucinda summons the frog Prince, Hattie gets turned into a frog too, Lucinda goes to Ella , who requests that she casts a magic Gift for her Wedding, to which Ella tells the woman who ruined her Life, in no uncertain but PG terms, TO FUCK OFF!
WHY WASN'T THIS THE ENDING?
THIS FILM SUCKS!
Let's Address the Elephant in the Room!
This film only exists because Moauschwitz got butthurt about the insider jokes about Disney in the first Shrek film. So the Nazi Rat got it's Adult Studio to play dirty!
The Ogres are deliberately designed after Shrek, and the costumes even have bare Backsides sewn into the trousers as an insult to Dreamworks.
On the Film side, apart from some good performances, Disney are too thin skinned to make parodies of themselves, any meta humour is dissolved in favour of playing it straight and the constant yanking of Ella's Chain make the Everyone is Friends After all Musical Ending Hollow with all the loose ends that a DVD EXTRA! Had to be commissioned to make things right!
