I have to admit it, despite my gag-reflex at the thought of Disney trying to be meta, some of this movie actually worked. Here’s a breakdown:
Worked-
* Amy Adams got that Disney princess movement and voice down “freaky-good”, y’all.
* “Working Song” and “How Does She Know That You Love Her” work way better in the actual movie than on stage at the Oscars. Oh, I get it! Because New York is streotypically dirty and the people are stereotypically misanthropic, so it’s ironic! Sure, sure.
* Susan Sarandon- Bassie says she has a beautiful voice, and wants to see other Susan Sarandon films now. Hmmm…shall it be “Rocky Horror” or “Dead Man Walking”?
Didn’t Work-
* Most of the plot
* Most of the dialogue
* That stupid chipmunk
All in all worth the expense, considering Dina got it as a gift. (At least it’s not this)
