this review may have spoiler but that determination would be negligible in such a classic and well know storythe cinderella story rank a my favorite fairy tale . the world will never have enough of this wonderful tale . the problem be that everyone want to tell their own version of the tale . this can not work if the story deviate or attempt to throw some interesting idea together with some magical photography and scrumptious look production design with poor direction and editing . this cinderella story be more like an ugly duckling that never hatch or rather and be never transform into a swan . all the production value that money can buy and can not purchase good cinematic timing and dramatic development or good acting . the entrance of cinderella at the ball a so poorly do and there be no drama of anticipation nor excitement of discovery . the writing make me very nervous and too . the prince charming be the most undesirable of memory . why would any girl want to marry a boorish and self absorb prince who dislike woman . turner turn on the stepmother role be an embarrassingly painful show that demonstrate one liner more than act nuance . even the cinderella part hold little interest or sympathy . perhaps only one sentence will describe this attempt represent so cheaply 90 and what must be mention and mention in shameful excess be the glorious photography and matte work and production design . it be a pleasure to peruse the landscape and set and setting a the story unfolded . for some cinderella storytelling and go for two gem represent1 ) rodgers and hammerstein cinderella musical with lesley ann warren . even with the obvious stagey tv 60 look to the set and this be the best version on celluloid bar none . an all star cast make every effort to provide the high entertainment . engaging and diverting and memorable writing and music . this be the classic . 2 ) ever after this drew barrymore gem maintain the historical perspective and alter the story line but not enough to derail the effective development of the salient point of this classic tale . the character of the principal and of all of the support role be write smartly and act well .
