mk, I saw enchanted today. glad I went on my own, didn't take the kids, don't think I will. mainly because of the divorce/mom abandonment stuff that was in there, just not a good thing for them right now. not that I am afraid of starting a dialog with them, more because (highlight the following to read, spoiler alert) I'm afraid the divorcing couple who reuninted would plant false hope into their heads. that is my main reason. and I know that could be talked about, and if my kids were older, maybe, but no way would I do that to them right now.
I'm not all that concerned about the age difference, because amy adams, at 33, doesn't come close to looking 17-20. I figured she'd been stuck in her tower for a while...sure seemed like she was longing for love and had been for a long time. she and dempsey do have an age difference, but it wasn't that much. I get what you are saying about the partner switch. that bugged me some, too. but at least in that, he wasn't married, and didn't seem all the eager. but yeah, the didn't sit well.
I really liked the movie, but no, with what my kids are dealing with, I won't be bringing them. might be a nice chance for dialog someday, though.
