Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Fred Topel (1,193) for Can Magazine (288) on 06 Jan 2007

This isn't unwatchable or boring. Not like Everyone's Hero, Open Season or Over the Hedge. But it's still so done…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Cynthia Fuchs (1,328) for Common Sense Media (4,943) on 05 Jan 2007

The wizard appears for two minutes at film's start before he smartly abandons the movie. You'll wish you had the good sense to walk out with him…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 05 Jan 2007

This is another tired kidsploitation product…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Tasha Robinson (753) for AV Club (2,778) on 05 Jan 2007

Even Eddie Murphy's endless hyper Shrek vamping is more entertaining…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Ruthe Stein (335) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 05 Jan 2007

The best that can be said of this charmless animated picture is that whether or not it ends happily -- an outcome you're unlikely to give a…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Timothy Knight (332) for Reel.com (1,232) on 05 Jan 2007

Painfully devoid of charm, wit, and ingenuity, this interminable, tongue-in-cheek slough through Fairy Tale Land is so jaw-droppingly awful,…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Sue Pierman (154) for Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (1,693) on 05 Jan 2007

Originally conceived as a 2-D picture, Happily was retooled into a 3-D computer-animated film during production…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Liam Lacey (1,725) for Globe and Mail (2,419) on 05 Jan 2007

After the first hour or so of strained puns and wisecracks, you start feeling that the sooner the ending comes, the happier it will be…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 05 Jan 2007

A pallidly hip revision of classic fairy tales that would be better told straight up if anyone had the nerve…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Matt Zoller Seitz (637) for New York Times (5,786) on 05 Jan 2007

Despite self-aware touches, this is another tired kidsploitation product in which a wasp-waisted ingénue and a shallow beau drive the plot…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Sean P. Means (2,056) for Salt Lake Tribune (1,927) on 05 Jan 2007

Though there are one or two funny gags (like the Seven Dwarves as commandos), the typographical flourish in the title is the most clever thing…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Michelle Alexandria (310) for Eclipse Magazine (446) on 05 Jan 2007

The film is so self aware and pseudo hip that it's incredibly annoying…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Kit Bowen (393) for Hollywood.com (1,014) on 05 Jan 2007

From the producers of the Shrek series comes this annoying Shrek ripoff, a wannabe fairytale spoof with no imagination…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Nell Minow (2,357) for Movie Mom (753) on 05 Jan 2007

This most recent po-mo take on fairy tale may be Shrek-lite, but it is just cute enough…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Liz Braun (961) for Jam! Movies (2,396) on 05 Jan 2007

If children will sit still for 'once upon a time' in a book, why does it all have to be dumbed down (and turned up) for the screen…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Willie Waffle (1,383) for WaffleMovies.com (1,380) on 04 Jan 2007

A movie that clearly is the B-level of animated fare, including B-level animation, B-level stars providing voices, B-level stories and B-level…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Bill Clark (530) for FromTheBalcony (528) on 04 Jan 2007

Limping into theaters at the least admirable time of year, the film is a disaster on a scale we may not have seen yet in this genre…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By David Cornelius (645) for eFilmCritic.com (5,125) on 04 Jan 2007

Not counting derivative, obnoxious, poorly animated, and woefully unfunny, what Happily is most of all is dull…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 04 Jan 2007

Who would have thought an animated comedy satirizing the predictable nature of fairy tales could be so grim…

Review of Happily N'Ever After (2007)

By Ann Hornaday (1,919) for Washington Post (9,851) on 04 Jan 2007

Winds up answering the question of what Shrek hath wrought, and between its plastic-looking visuals and cynical attitude, the news isn't good…
