**UNHINGED** Ella Enchanted (2004) Reaction: FIRST TIME WATCHING

[@Br0nto5aurus]

I hope you guys watch Ever After with Drew Barrymore. It's a Cinderella story with a strong protagonist.

[@Lilcutiepie95]

That’s one of my favorite movies of all time. She’s such an inspiration to me as a character. I strive to be like Danielle.

[@deftling]

YES PLEASE

[@amariebloom]

I would love this

[@laurajanco2i]

probably my favorite Cinderella story

[@RENegade4lifee]

YES PLEASE!!

[@EChacon]

it’s so surreal that this movie just came out 20 years ago and it’s still one of my favorite fantasy comedy films thanks to the performances of Anne Hathaway, Hugh Dancy, Cary Elwes, Minnie Driver, Aidan McArdle, Vivica A. Fox, and Eric Idle as our narrator. Thanks for the reaction you guys.

[@lesliedaubert1411]

The uncle is Carey Elwes. Wesley from " The Princess Bride ".

[@jim1771]

Also Robin Hood from Men in Tights and Jonas Miller in Twister

[@leslieoneal4464]

The nod to the O.J. Simpson trial was definitely a time-dependent joke which went right over their heads here! Lol "If the gauntlet doesn't fit, you must acquit!" 😂

[@tiffanygreen7115]

So I don't know if you've seen it, but Edgar and the snake in Ella Enchanted were modeled after Prince John and Sir Hiss from Disney's 1973 Robin Hood animated movie. Ella Enchanted paid homage to a bunch of classic Disney movies while still telling its own story which is super cool. And if you haven't seen Disney's animated Robin Hood you should definitely watch it even if you choose not to react to it. It's one of my favorite Disney movies and I think you guys might really enjoy it.

[@chris...9497]

Yet another retelling of the Cinderella fairy tale, but quite entertaining. Lucy Punch (oldest stepsister Hattie) has practically made a career of playing Cinderella's stepsister. -"Cinderella" (2000) -"Ella Enchanted" (2004) -"Cinderella" (2008) -"Into the Woods" (2014) And how interesting to see Cary Elwes almost unrecognizable as Prince Char's evil uncle. All this talk of an alcoholic character; if they only knew Joanna Lumley's most famous character 'Patsy', from "Absolutely Fabulous"... Note: The giantess that flirts with the 'lawyer'-elf is played by supermodel Heidi Klum. Would REALLY REALLY like you to react to "Warm Bodies" some Wednesday soon! Oct 30th would be PERFECT!

[@toastoast]

I love Lucy Punch so much ❤ she plays another very similar character in a fairytale-based miniseries called The 10th Kingdom (though not a Cinderella step-sister)

[@jilliancorvus]

Yesss 10th Kingdom too. I read somewhere that Lucy LOVES playing the evil stepsister, has since she was a kid, so I love that she gets t have so much fun in these roles, it makes them so much better to watch

[@HeiwaTori]

god I love Lucy (no pun intended) shes so good 🤣

[@kay-jay1581]

This movie and the Princess Dairies films made me into a big fan of Anne Hathaway. 😄

[@JoeThornhill]

I read 'Princess Bride', lol.

[@rogueryder3285]

Bruh

[@mousebyte94]

9 year old me immediately fell in love with Anne Hathaway and Somebody to Love. Both still my favorites to this day.

[@brittanygidley1291]

she never ages. i love the fact that she can really sing.. the guy you're talking about @7:51 he plays in the princess bride. if you haven't yet please react to The Crow with Brandon Lee in it. RIP Brandon Lee, the movie is such a good movie and the fact that it was in the 80's.

[@EChacon]

If I had a nickel every time Cary Elwes appeared in a Fantasy fairytale comedy, I have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s crazy it happened twice already (e.g. _Princess Bride_ and _Ella Enchanted)._ And even more funny that Lucy Punch who played the ugly stepsister, Hattie in _Ella Enchanted_ also played another ugly stepsister in _Into the Woods_ ten years later after _Ella Enchanted_

[@videohistory722]

And 2000's Cinderella, and the Cinderella episode of Fairy Tales. Even better, it's actually not typecasting. When she was a little girl, when everyone else wanted a princess party, she asked for an ugly stepsister party. This is literally a dream come true for her.

[@EChacon]

@@videohistory722 Yeah you actually mentioned it in either your own comment or to someone on Sophia Phan’s reaction to _Ella Enchanted_ But I just find it interesting to see Lucy play an Evil Stepsister in _Ella Enchanted_ and _Into the Woods_ respectively and the aforementioned titles you mentioned regardless of typecast or her preference.

[@KatrinaM1234]

How about Robinhood, Men in Tights?

[@AdamNisbett]

I find it interesting that he’s basically playing opposite characters though. His role here is basically Prince Humperdink’s equivalent.

[@EChacon]

@@AdamNisbett Yeah I honestly can’t help seeing the similarities of Edgar to Prince Humperdinck from _Princess Bride_ especially from motives and personality when I watched _Ella Enchanted_

[@shirw]

I love the book; it's one of my favorite fairy tale twists. The movie is... pretty silly.

[@bigdream_dreambig]

4:40 The sign on top of the coach is an ad for "I Know What You Did Last Century" -- a riff on the real-life horror film "I Know What You Did Last Summer" from 1997.

[@clarriebarton5446]

Anne Hathaway just performed somebody to love last night in honour of this film! 😅

[@rogueryder3285]

Bruh

[@wereleopard58yepihavetwo2]

I love Hugh Dancy in this, but he's amazing in Hannibal the series as Will Graham.

[@rachelneviaser4948]

YES YES YES this movie !!!!

[@ditchthebun9453]

Anne Hathaway is an amazing singer. She played the role of Fantine in the film of Les Misérables in 2012, she won several awards for it including an Oscar Academy Award, a Golden Globe and a BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actress. This character does not have a lot of onscreen time. Honestly she is incredible, if all you do is jump on KZbin and watch the scene where she sings 'I dreamed a dream', you will be shook.

[@uzair-cs6rr]

I had a snake 😭😂😂😂

[@shellydevries6083]

So glad to see you both again

[@plothole181]

The actress that plays the more intelligent of the evil stepsisters has played the evil stepsister in at least two other versions of Cinderella and its a role that she has wanted to play since she was a little girl. I always found this hilarious.

[@a.g.demada5263]

Wow, her dream came true then 😮

[@erin8005]

I literally watched this movie again 2 days ago. It is one of my favorites.!

[@WlknHope2024]

Ahhhhhhhhh! 😂 Not Nick saying, " I have a snake." 🤣🤣🤣 Bruh. 👏

[@acciomess]

If you want to know more about Lucy Punch aka the bad sister, watch Bad Teacher. It is amazing

[@sawanna508]

I wish there was a scene showing Elle reconnecting with her friend.

[@TheCripeCrew]

If you enjoy the comedic evil villain then you have to see Alan Rickman in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves

[@farfaraway4285]

Oh yeah, he totally steals the show 😂

[@la_beatrice]

What I find hilarious in that movie is that he understood the assignment and knew very well what kind of movie that was. So did Morgan Freeman. Kevin Costner, on the other hand...

[@farfaraway4285]

@@la_beatrice😂😂😂 I still love it though, nostalgia glasses I guess 😊

[@lingodelfo5415]

I vote for the unhinged comedies!

[@Cat-vr5ss]

Quynh looks so beautiful 😊 great reaction guys ❤

[@nicolestevens265]

I’d love to see you react to fried green tomatoes

[@merryn96]

This is definitely one of my favourite Cinderella adaptations! You probably wouldn't know the 1973 Czech version Three Wishes for Cinderella which has to be my #1 of all time simply because I grew up on it, it's a Czech Christmas fairytale classic, but Ever After (1998) and Disney live action (2015) are up there as well! Hope we'll see you react to any of these ♥️

[@WlknHope2024]

MY BESTIES!!! 🤗 This is one of my faves! It's so great, Always great! To see you both together. It warms my heart and soul, in so many ways, when there is so much fear mongering content out there. You guys Are My 💪 SuperHeroes 💪 of Hope. Anyway, let's get to the movie. *drying my tears*

[@mariacavanaugh1010]

This is such a fun adaptation of Cinderella...🎉❤😂

[@jessc.994]

Fun fact: the villainous uncle doesn’t exist in the book! The main enemy is Ella’s stepfamily and her curse which makes her do much worse things. Act 2 is entirely different because of it. Both versions are really good in their own ways!

[@FuryOfCalderon]

This one awakened some...things in my younger self, heh.

[@siriuslymeva]

I audibly gasped seeing this

[@Cypher77]

Is your girlfriend seen Enchanted? If not you should react it! I love that movie and if I remember right you also liked it when you react it!

[@lc8155]

So much fun fun thanks!

[@kayzbluegenes]

Thank you for this awesome reaction to one of my favorite movies! 💜

[@JamesClifton-wc1cw]

You should watch comedies on wednesdays, your girlfriend's laughter is too wonderful

[@jim1771]

Nick watch Mirror , Mirror starring Lily Collins and Julia Roberts your lady will love it

[@sawanna508]

That would be great!

[@sharqane]

The actress who plays Hattie, is the same one who plays the amateur actress with the annoying laugh in Hot Fuzz

[@juliewagner3023]

For the Wednesday slot, honestly I just enjoy the variety! Old, classic movies, more modern comedies, I kind of like not knowing what we’re going to get. That being said, there are soooo many possibilities for the older movies ☺️

[@KrystalaAllen08]

This movie is so nostalgic for me I love you for watching it

[@00Jess_M]

I was excited when I saw this reaction pop up. I love this movie. I think my favorite is King Edgar too, because I absolutely love Cary Elwes. For other movies with him I would recommend my two favorites. For fun Mel Brook's "Men in Tights" again, although it might be good for Quynh to watch Robin Hood first or at least know the Robin Hood story and characters. It's a good movie no matter what, but that would make it funnier, because humor tends to get lost a bit when one doesn't get references and I don't know if she has seen any Robin Hood movie yet. I know you have already reacted to it, but it would be fun to see you both watch it together. And for a serious movie "Kiss the Girls", a thriller with Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd.

[@wordygirlandco]

❤loved this as a kid. Great music too. The step Mother is played by the fabulous Joanna Lumley who was also in FRIENDS playing Emily's mom. The step sister Hattie was also hilarious in Hott Fuzz.......think Juliet with a gun😂😂😂

[@letitiasmith242]

I love all the songs in this movie, also the uncle is the same actor who played in the princess bride.... Two more movies might like are legend and seven brides for seven brothers.... paint your wagon Star wars movies

[@tyreemarable3326]

The actress who plays the eldest step sister is very underrated imo; her name is Lucy Punch. You should react to her in Netflix’s Series of Unfortunate Events series. She’s amazing in it!

[@rogueryder3285]

Thank you for this one

[@mama_umbridge]

Loved the reaction! I think you guys would like Penelope. Synopsis from google: Born with the snout of a pig, young Penelope Wilhern (Christina Ricci) spends life a virtual prisoner in her home. Believing that the only way to break the curse is to marry one of her own kind, she meets a number of suitors, but all reject her.

[@jontastic]

Beyond karmic, it’s comic.

[@NikkieTwix]

I love Eric Idle’s voice ❤ and Cary Elwes is great as the villain 😂

[@michaelolivero1626]

People usually peg Cary Elwes/Edgar (you know him from the Princess Bride,among others), and Joanna Lumley/Dame Olga (watch Absolutely Fabulous), but not many clock the giantess Brumhilda is Heidi Klum

[@unrulytati]

I'd love to see your reaction to "how to lose a guy in 10 days"!

[@kaylabounds0615]

Yes please

[@Jimi-ld2vw]

I like the movie and enjoyed your reactions/assessments.

[@softwindcrafting]

This was my daughter's favorite book so she was very excited when the movie came out. She was very, very upset after watching it and felt the movie was horrendous.

[@jilliancorvus]

I LOVED the book growing up, and luckily didnt watch the movie until years after I'd read it. they are very different animals, the movie is great fun as a fantasy comedy, but you have to entirely disconnect it from the book to enjoy it

[@candicelitrenta8890]

You would best know the uncle as Wesley from The Princess Bride

[@Nicamon]

02:54 - 02:58 Except she doesn't deserve it!!!😱 08:21 - 08:24 Pretty much like an Italian.😊💚🤍❤I would love it if I didn't hate him. 08:29 - 08:36 🐍 19:51 - 19:53 Such a drama queen. 22:39 - 22:50 They're so much like Danielle&Henry from"Ever After". 32:50 - 32:56 I mean...c'mon...this guy had"SCAR"written all over his face from the 1st second we saw him!X-P 36:49 - 36:55 _That_ was bad!😬 37:23 - 37:42 Such a powerful scene!!😭😎Gets me every time!🥺 43:16 - 43:44 Such a moron!🤣🤣🤣

[@danawatson424]

I would love it if you started reacting to Jane the Virgin:) There aren’t really any reaction videos to it.

[@melainakiss]

I saw someone else say in a comment section for another Ella Enchanted reaction that she technically broke the spell by telling herself in the mirror to no longer be obedient. I had never realized that before.

[@tltatt]

Comedies for Wednesdays! They make great reactions and there are a wide variety of genre movies that are also comedies: horror comedies, SF/fantasy comedies, teen comedies, rom-coms, western comedies, superhero comedies, action comedies, etc.

[@a.g.demada5263]

You'll probably agreeing with me but it's a good thing Ella doesn't live in actual society. With all the bad words use by people, she would be in embarrassing situations every day. What about watchinf french movies ? I recommend " Intouchables " and " Les Choristes "

[@tylerelfling8430]

I don't mind what sort of thing we watch on a Wednesday to be honest, I'm just here for the reaction with you guys no matter what we're watching ✌️

[@JoeThornhill]

I'm having to re-watch most of this reaction because I've just found out that Steve Coogan is the snake. I'm so used to seeing him play Alan Partridge, lately.

[@CrookiNari]

Funny useless factoid: Cary Elwes did this movie the same year he was in Saw as Dr Lawrence Gordon. Just in case you wanted to see him doing a serious role.

[@shirleehegsted4347]

This movie is entertaining and I'm glad you both enjoyed it! The book it's based on is sooo good, and the movie changed a lot of things... like there's no evil uncle in the book and both of the prince's parents are alive. If you like to read you should check it out! Author is Gail Carson Levine 😄

[@gloe45]

Another great (imo) Hugh Dancy movie that nobody ever talks about is called "Blood and Chocolate" it's a fantastic movie! *Edit* I Should say it is fantastic from what I remember. It was a movie my parents actually bought from our local blockbuster when they went out of business and I remember rewatching it all the time as a young teenager. I haven't actually seen it in probably 8 years or so!

[@sararose8879]

Such a fun reaction! Would love to see some reactions to Studio Ghibli movies if you haven't seen them. 😊

[@crystaladams8214]

You should watch princesses bride

[@katlamb7627]

So this is one of the only movies based on a book that changes a lot but I still love it. ☺️ The only thing I was disappointed about is in the book she breaks the spell under her own power and in the movie it looks like she tells herself in the mirror no to be obedient. Other than that, loved both movie and book.

[@CathleenMJennings80]

Have you guys seem Hot Fuzz? The "smart" step-sister is in it (and its an AWESOME movie)

[@ninokatsitadze7787]

Hi guys ❤❤ some French movies. Amelie? ❤❤❤

[@marygifford9379]

Am I imagining it, or is the bad guy the voice of Jaafar in the animated Aladdin?

[@thegrasslands4187]

I love Anne Hathaway and this movie is not her fault. She's amazing. This movie is based on one of my favorite books and they massacred it. In the book EVERYTHING is different except the character names and the fact that she is cursed to be obedient. Prince Char's parents are both alive and he doesn't even have an uncle. I understand why people enjoy this movie. It's because they didn't read the book.

[@thegrasslands4187]

I posted this before watching the reaction, but I am watching it because I love you guys and I want to support you. But this movie hurts my soul. Every new scene is a new level of pain.

[@staceyj-z4t]

He’s not scared

[@lyndaayu8247]

How about you guys react to the Netflix Series "Wednesday" for the wednesday video??? 😁😁

[@knytewing3107]

Lucinda was the real villain of the movie and gave Ella hell throughout her life. When she got peed on, that what she deserved. In that cake scene, I thought Ella was doing that on purpose until I realized it was the curse. For the ogres, that was a lot of Plummer's crack.

[@EChacon]

@@knytewing3107 Yup all because of Lucinda giving Ella the "Gift of Obedience” which resulted in Ella being ordered to do things by others, even Hattie the ugly stepsister was also no better than Lucinda as she took the necklace that belonged to Ella’s mother and also ordered and humiliated Ella during the first act of the film. Frankly I say Lucinda and Hattie were the real villains IMHO, instead of the actual main villain, Edgar.

[@JoeThornhill]

I'm guessing that's not the E.L.O song, they're starting off with? Shame. 17:48 That's better.

[@videohistory722]

Fun fact: Lucy Punch, aka Hattie, also played the stepsister in 2000's Cinderella, Into the Woods, and the Cinderella episode of Fairy Tales. Even better, it's actually not typecasting. When she was a little girl, when everyone else wanted a princess party, she asked for an ugly stepsister party. This is literally a dream come true for her.

[@llama209]

Can you please do more reactions to the office?

[@WatchingUntiltheEnd]

Please watch JFK Oliver Stone film 1991.

[@mikechasmar4154]

Can you react to The Nightingale or Tumbbad? They're both epic adventure movies and way better than any superhero flick. I'm so tired of cape sht.

[@crealkillr]

What a silly story, but its kind of nostalgic This reminds me of the ending to the movie "Penelope". The answer was there the whole time, and yet at the end its such a simple solution. Some parts dont make sense, but for the plot, you just go with it.
