Ella Enchanted
Movie • 2004 • Comedy
ReportElla lives in a magical world in which each child, at the moment of their birth, is given a virtuous "gift" from a fairy godmother. Ella's so-called gift, however, is obedience. This birthright proves itself to be quite the curse once Ella finds herself in the hands of several unscrupulous characters whom she quite literally cannot disobey. Determined to gain control of her life and decisions, Ella sets off on a journey to find her fairy godmother who she hopes will lift the curse. The path, however, isn't easy -- Ella must outwit a slew of unpleasant obstacles including ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, elves and Prince Charmont's evil uncle, who wants to take over the crown and rule the kingdom.

Technically yes. Ella's step sister force her to put herself in harm's way (though she escapes unharmed each time) and give up things and people that are important to her.

At the end of the movie, a man finds out that a close relative has been lying to him about some things (most of which the audience already knew) for his whole life. A few times throughout the movie, the relative also questions the man's logic when he starts to suspect the relative.

From a young age, Ella is forced to do things she doesn't want to do. Her fairy godmother considers it a gift that Ella is incapable of not doing what her parents tell her to do. Her mother uses the spell to make her practice her musical instrument and such.

No sexual assault, but the biggest piece of the plot is that Ella has a curse that does not allow her to disobey an order. The portrayal of her being forced to do things against her will was upsetting to me, and could be upsetting or prompt flashbacks for other sexual assault/general abuse survivors.

While fighting ogres, Prince Char gets a small cut from a weapon, though the cut isn't directly shown aside from a slit in his mildly bloody shirt sleeve.

No one is burned alive, but when Ella comes across ogres in the woods, she is nearly cooked alive in a boiling cauldron; she is rescued right before she goes into the water.

There is no physical torture but there are scenes which could be classified as mental torture where a character is forced to do things; she is unable to disobey a direct order.

There is no eye mutilation, but while Edgar talks to Ella's step sisters, Heston makes a verbal threat to remove the sisters' eyes.

A few minutes into the movie, Ella's mother dies of an undescribed illness on-screen. There are a few mentions throughout the movie of Prince Char's parents dying while he was a child.

No, but the necklace gifted to Ella by her mother when she passed is taken by her step sister, although she regains it at the end of the film

At the giant pub, when Slannen sees a large piece of meat on a table, a giant on a bench does a massive fart that blows Slannen backwards.

There is also a bleeding cut on Prince Char’s arm. This is not self-harm, but is in an area that could be upsetting to people who may have experience with self-harm.

After Ella leaves the giant pub, she sees some people being put in a small cage. After Ella is taken away from the Hall of Mirrors, she is shown in a small cell a few times. After Bennie is found in a compost bin, the whole group squashes themselves into a carriage with absolutely no room to spare.

The younger step sister is supposed to be unintelligent and is referred to as 'special' and is the butt of many jokes. Also at the very very end theres a joke about the main villain getting brain damage with very cringey visuals.

When Prince Char fights ogres in the woods, he gets a small cut on his arm (which isn't directly shown), and the blood on his shirt sleeve is there for a short while.
