A Well Made But Simplistic and Twee Fairy Tale Aimed Squarely At Kids
Giving this latest cinematic version of Cinderella a star rating is problematic because of its very nature.If you're a grown adult and especially if you are male then there's a good chance you will consider the whole film to be a twee and cloying exercise that lacks depth, pace or genuine drama. It looks stunning, but that's about it. Even the script is pretty banal and the fact that the movie relies on a very extensive voice over to signpost things like character development rather than letting them be implicit in the narrative says a great deal. Frankly, excluding a half decent performance by Kate Blanchett, I found myself bored by the whole, slight affair and would award it two stars at best.As a forty-something adult however, I am not the film's target audience. That is quite obviously tween-age and teen-age girls, and I suspect that for them Cinderella ticks pretty much all the right boxes. Certainly family members within the target demographic and their friends all seemed to love it, as did some of their mothers. Asked to rate it they'd almost certainly give it four to five stars.So, on balance it seems only fair to give it four stars, but with the proviso that you probably need to be sub-eighteen and more than likely female for that review to apply. For everyone else, if you're looking for a genuinely smart and funny fairy tale with genuine adult appeal and which looks gorgeous I would recommend Matthew Vaughan's 'Stardust' over this any day of the week.

All the movie is beautiful, the way the story is told
I must tell I'm not a fan of this kind of movies. Reading so much praise and enjoying Dysney movies, I ordered the DVD. After watching it I was so impressed that I ordered the Bluray. All the movie is beautiful, the way the story is told, the colours, thelighting, the shadows are incredible, and so is Cinderella blue dress, and the special effects. The Fairy Godmother is beautiful, clumsy, funny and her dress it shines with an ethereal look. Of course the center of the movie is when Cinderella enters the ballroom, with her dress shining over everything else, you can see her vision of the bright ballroom, and then you see her, as she goes down the stairs like floating. And when she dances with te prince is what I do consider one of the most beautiful glamour scenes I ever seen, with Cinderella dancing and kind of flying with her beautiful dress with little sparks like stars, spinning around while she dances. But first she talks so unbielievably soft to the prince, waving is head like a little girl. The story is well known but what matters is the way that it is told. If you love fantasy movies, and you are young or less young I recommend it.

I couldn't be happier with Disney's CINDERELLA
Now that I have BOTH Disney CINDERELLA movies for my home viewing--one the 1950 animated version I first saw when I was three years old, the other the 2015 live version, I couldn't be happier with Disney's CINDERELLA. This is a fairy tale done right for both versions, although Richard Madden's prince is way more interesting in the live version. Helena Bonham Carter brings her own brand of eccentricity to the fairy godmother, and Cate Blanchett's stepmother is more chilling because her performance conveys both the malice of the animated stepmother and the pain that warped the live stepmother's view of the world. Lily James is a beautiful Cinderella in and out of her resplendent ball gown, although--in her final scene in the house she grew up in, where she appears in an old, faded dress--she comes off as most dignified and royal. The live version does have a psychologically richer human story. As for the animated version, it has a scene or two that the live version couldn't duplicate--especially the scene of mice and birds warbling "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes" as they "fix the dress for Cinderelly." The 2015 live Cinderella is arguably an animal whisperer, and her little friends do help her in a climactic moment. Both these Disney versions are splendid retellings of the fairy tale, and the live version Blu-Ray has a fun selection of special features.
