Reception

The show received mixed reviews; some praised it for its technological advancements while others criticized it for being not being focused on the attractions past and present of Walt Disney World, classic Disney movies, or the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World, when it debuted.[5][6] It was also noted for not having much of a "story element."[7]

The general consensus was that the show was not an improvement over Happily Ever After, with some reviewers calling Disney Enchantment a "bootleg" version and opining that it "fails as a successor."[8][9]
