Synopsis
Happily N'Ever After (2007) is an animated family comedy you can watch online on iFILM. In Fairy Tale Land, a Wizard keeps every storybook ending on track. The trouble starts the moment he leaves for a golfing trip in Scotland and the balance between good and evil goes wobbly.
With his two bumbling assistants, Munk and Mambo, minding the controls, the wicked stepmother Frieda seizes the magic staff and starts rewriting every tale to suit herself. The familiar happy endings fall apart fast. So Ella — yes, this land's Cinderella — stops waiting for a prince at the ball and steps up to lead the resistance instead. Her loyal friend Rick, the palace dishwasher who's quietly smitten with her, fights at her side. Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. lead the voice cast, with Sigourney Weaver chewing the scenery as Frieda.
It's a Brothers Grimm send-up with a modern twist: the heroine rescues herself this time. A light, brisk 87-minute cartoon narrated by George Carlin — modest in ambition but good-natured, and an easy pick for a family movie night with kids. Stream Happily N'Ever After (2007) online on iFILM.
