I'm hoping to take my three year old daughter to her first movie this week and I'm not sure which, if any, of these might be appropriate and hold her interest. Any ideas?

I adored "Enchanted", but I don't know that it'll hold her interest. It's great for adults and some older kids, but at three years old, I think it might be tough. A good mixture of animation and real action, but there are moments of talking involved between characters which might make her lose interest. The rest of it is pretty action-filled and comical (my boyfriend - in his 30s - was cracking up in parts).
While "The Water Horse" looks really good, I think it might also be geared toward older children. It seems like it would have a bit of talking as well, and some of the concepts might be lost on younger children.
I suppose you're left with "Alvin and the Chipmunks". I don't think I will see it because the director is the same guy who did the "Garfield" movie and that was an awful film.

3 is pretty young to be able to sit through an entire movie.
That said, I took my 6 year old to see enchanted for her birthday last week. She liked it but she got a little bored toward the end. It also does have some scarier parts that my own 3 year old would have been terrified at (but she's a bit of a weenie). The evil step mom queen turns into a dragon.
In the newspaper reviews for water horse, it said it would be to scary for little kids, so I wouldn't go with that one.
I don't really know much about Alvin and the Chipmunks.
Good luck.

I saw Enchanted and it was good... not amazing but good. Haven't seen Water Horse but it does look really cute. I'm dying to see Alvin and the Chipmunks so I would vote for that one!

Ok I'm 19 years old, and I went to see enchanted, and I loved it. It is so cute, and I think your three year old will love it. And I think you will think it is also pretty funny. If your 3 year old likes the little mermaid and all those princess movies then she'll love enchanted it's darling!

I took my girls ages 3&5 to Enchanted. They sat through it, but weren't mesmerized. It does have some scary scenes, the evil step-mother is evil and does turn into a fire breathing dragon. Haven't seen the other two.
