I love how the journalist sees Penelope and realizes she’s just a girl and not a monsters, so he doesn’t want to make a story of her being a monster because it’s unfair. It’s kinda sweet.

What I like a lot about this movie is that both Penelope and Max/ Johnny grow outside of one another. Penelope runs away and gains her independence, new friends and self- acceptance, and Max kicks his gambling addiction and is slowly starting to become a more responsible and honest adult. When they meet again, it's because they've both grown separately that they are able to be together. It wasn't either one that 'fixed' the other. I feel like Edward's 'redemption' was a little rushed and felt more of a show of Penelope's kindness rather than Edward genuinely realizing he made a mistake, but that's my only real gripe with the film.

This is probably one of the most complex stories I have ever heard. The parents were stupid, she didn't look ugly, the curse was a fake really and the guy who liked her caused his own problems. I am so glad I don't have to watch it since I've seen this. I am really enjoying these recaps - saves me so much watching time.

You should see it if you get an opportunity to. It’s really good. Christina Ricci is a fantastic actress.
Penelope was ahead of its time. During the era it was released, films tend to have the leading ladies be rescued by some useless guy. In here, Penelope saved herself. Today that's the trend, but back then it was not. So it's a pretty big deal.

Stunning and brave or something.
Lemon is such a good reporter He has respect
This is one of my fav movie of all time. Penelope learned to accept herself, her mum learned her lesson too, johnny got his ducks in a row, lemon's obsession with the big story had the anticlimactic yet proper ending it deserved, even edward wasn't just a one-dimensional character and had struggles of his own. a very refreshing subversion of the cursed princess needing rescue by a prince fairytale.

When I first watched this movie I was surprised by the butler, and in that moment they became my favorite person right beside Penelope.
If her mom knew about furries, her daughter would have been married sooner
“Penelope says ‘hi’” The best newspaper titles
Lol. Those men are sooOooo dramatic. It's not the Grudge lady came out crawling 🤣
This is actually a very beautiful story ! 😄
Penelope's mother overreacting about everything doesn't help. Yes they're from a wealthy family but they shouldn't have hid her from the world. Yes it's weird to have a pig nose and pig ears, but there are worse deformities. How would these "men" react to someone with a major deformity or disability? This story is about acceptance, true love, and proof magic is real (or was real) in this world.
I’ve always loved this movie. It’s actually laugh out loud funny and super duper sweet!
This story is so sweet!! I'm glad Penelope got a happy ending!
Luv this movie. It's so wholesome yet so under rated. Also the scene where Penelope mailed the ring back to Edward is a deleted scene. The original theatrical cut doesn't mention him after the wedding is canceled.
What the hell. How have I not heard about this film before? So many great actors here. Very touching
I have to say, there are so many recap channels, but I love yours most And one of the reasons is the background music. I don’t know, regardless the movie you are recapping, the music and your voice calms me down 😁

i watched this since i was 7 or 8 and i still love it its so wholesome
I actually remember seeing this years ago. It was an enjoyable watch with some good messages
This was a real sweet story, and the recap hit it all but, I would still recommend watching the whole movie on this one.
This movie always gives me good vibes! I feel like I've seen a different version? I don't remember Johny and her meeting before the ending
Still possibly my favorite movie to this day ❤️
LOVE these
The journalist guy is the real hero here, most of the time people like them are the bad guys in a story but not in this one.
This has always been one of my favorites and I constantly watched it growing up🥺❤️
I remember having watched just the end, when she loves herself. I sometimes think about it. I really thought it was a cheesy movie (great message though) until today when I watched this summary. I'll have to watch it complete.
I mean, she's not even ugly
I LOVE this movie, it’s one of my favorites 🥰
New movie!! Yay!!
Omg I forgot I'd seen this movie! :O It was actually really good!
The pov from the witch would be an interesting one. Initially rage in which the curse is cast for the mistreatment and loss of her daughter. Frustration as solely boys are born while the curse is unbroken. Satisfaction when she discovers that the first Welhern daughter is actually not. Considering how much of her power must be tied to the curse would not be surprised if she could detect her emotions (sadness, loneliness and rejection).The witch became Jake the butler in a bid to help protect the innocent child who ended up cursed. Considering how protective over Penelope Jake must be after it must be a source of relief chasing down and body tackling the shallow suitors must be
Wonderful cast
Interesting to see Reese Witherspoon in a movie where she’s only playing a small role
Penelope must be in a huge relieve if she had lived in Covid time.
im just glad that her family loves and cares for her (instead of like abusing her)
