Well, I wasn't really expecting much from the 2020 movie "Godmothered", with it being what was seemingly a run-of-the-mill Disney production. But still, as I hadn't already seen the movie and had the chance to do so, of course I found myself sitting down to watch this 2020 movie from writers Kari Granlund and Melissa K. Stack.
First of all I must say that "Godmothered" was indeed an archetypical Disney movie, but at the same time it managed to deviate enough from the blueprint that it was its own unique movie experience. I liked how director Sharon Maguire was poking fun at the genre itself with this movie.
Now, I am not particularly much familiar with actress Jillian Bell, but I will say that she definitely put on a memorable performance in "Godmothered"; a performance that was enough for me to take notice of her skill and talent. But aside from Jillian Bell, the movie also had the likes of Jane Curtin and Isla Fisher on the cast list.
The storyline told in "Godmothered" is a lighthearted one, and it is a story that has enough heart and laughs to provide proper entertainment from start to end. And the writing of the story was done in a very nicely manner, because the story progressed quite nicely throughout the course of the movie.
If you want to watch a Disney movie that isn't the normal typical sugar-coated dribble that Disney has been known to dish out, then "Godmothered" is a good choice, because it feels like a Disney movie while at the same time offering something that deviates from the archetypical Disney formula.
My rating of "Godmothered" is a six out of ten stars.
