Ella enchanted

As a fan of the movie about Ella Enchanted, I was very excited to watch the movie. However, the movie did not live up to my expectations in many way. My major complaint is that it has so little in common with the fairy tale movies.I loved this movie Ella is a beautiful a clever heroin girl in the story young. Ella's character received  gift of obedience from the fairy named Lucinda, that can make Ella must obey any and anyone order given her. Ella falls in love with Prince Char. and knows she can't marry the prince because would be endangering the kingdom and her beloved Char. This is a different remake of Cinderella- about a girl who does whats best even though she has to endure finishing school, her evil step sisters AND father, and the knowledge of having to break up with Prince Char without him knowing about the spell. This is NOT just a sappy love story, though- Its an excellent book."
