Charming is the story of Prince Phillipe, heir to one of the Four Kingdoms, who was supposed to be given a blessing of charm at his birth. Unfortunately, the blessing was hijacked by his father's former lover who wanted revenge on him (and the concept of love itself). The blessing turned curse means that any woman who looks into Phillipe's eyes will fall madly in love with him, whether he likes it or not...and he most certainly does not.Cue the expected quest and race against the clock to find the meaning of love before Phillipe's 21st birthday when the curse will be made permanent.This film was released on April 20th, 2018 and was produced by Vanguard Animation, the same folks who produced Happily N'Ever After.

comment
Never Trust a Trailer: The trailers all presented Phillipe in a very unsympathetic light, more of a playboy who takes advantage of his curse. See Nice Guy below for the reality of the situation.

Adaptational Job Change: In this movie, Cinderella's a princess from birth rather than being a commoner who married into royalty (like in the original fairytale along with the Disney-version).

Captain Ersatz: Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty are clearly based largely off of their Disney-counterparts, design-wise at least—Sleeping Beauty also mentions being raised by fairies, which only applies to the Disney-version and not the original fairytale.

Prince Charming
 Charming / int_27ebe639
comment
Prince Charming: The main character is the very same prince who woos Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White in all the classic fairytales. At first, the movie seems to be headed down the popular route of the prince being a Playboy who toys with the princesses’ hearts and dates them all simultaneously. However, he becomes an Averted Trope as we soon find out he’s actually a Nice Guy looking for his True Love, and his relationships with the princesses are actually an unintentional mixup as a result of a curse that makes every girl who sees him fall madly in love with him.

comment
Woman Scorned: Nemeny Neverwish was once King Charming’s most trusted knight and friend. But when he chose another woman over her, she became consumed with jealousy and sought to destroy all romantic love, starting by cursing her former love’s newborn son to unintentionally seduce every woman he met, something that gets him hunted down by all the rejected men.

Disney Acid Sequence: While marinating in the cooking pot, the Half-Oracle gives vague (and half-true) premonitions to Lenore about her love-life (or lack thereof), complete with a trippy song sequence to the song "Balladino" sung by the Half Oracle (played by Sia).

Missing Mom: The movie never explains what happened to Phillipe's mother, just that she died sometime before the events of this movie. Although the idea of Nemeny Neverwish murdering his mother is a distinct possibility, for obvious reasons.

Love at First Sight: Deconstructed hard through the lens of the curse. Every lady who sees Phillipe thinks that's what she feels, but it's just essentially hypnosis. Ironically, a genuine case of this happens to Phillippe upon seeing Lenore for the first time, right before getting kneed in the crotch by her.

Nice Guy: Phillipe. He never wanted any of the women who chase him to be stuck in the state they're in. He just wanted every girl to feel like a princess. The executioner. He says it's just his job and he's willing to slow the countdown to give time for someone to rescue Phillipe. It allows Lenore to arrive on time.
