I don’t normally watch movies by Tyler Perry. I find the subject matter to be kind of trite. Additionally, it often seems like the sets are too artificial looking. The best of the best are always the stars of these films in terms of …

I usually like movies based on fairy tales and, overall, the film Enchanted wasn’t bad. But, I think the movie used too much of the same-old format to make it good.
