Cinderella (2015)

Hey welcome back,

I thinks my blog readers may have gotten tired of my recent chain of horror movie recommendations. So today I will be giving my views on the most fairest princess story of them all, Cinderella. Though I was not really a fairy tale of kid, I did watch all the Disney versions of the fairy tales. I was interested in watching the newest remake of Cinderella and comparing it with the original Disney one. Actually there was not much to compare as the stories are the same. The only difference was that The newest version is a live remake and not the animated one. Usually I like the original animated versions of the Disney movies better, like the Jungle Book and others. But in this case, I loved the newer one. The effects were amazing and Cinderella's dress was probably my center of attraction.

Anyways, to sum it up, Cinderella is a story about a young, kind woman, Ella, who has to bear her evil stepmother and irritatingly rude stepsisters. Her mother had died while she was still a little girl and her father remarried after about a decade to her evil stepmother. Her stepmother makes her live in the attic and do all the household chores, thus leading to her new name, Cinderella. Anyways, she meets a young handsome man in the forest near her house and they both like each other. The man turns out to be a prince, and wishing to meet the mysterious country girl again, he keeps a lavish ball. Though ordered by her stepmother to stay at home, Cinderella, with the help of her hairy dogfather, I mean fairy godmother, reaches the ball in the most beautiful avatar ever. The prince instantly notices her and they dance together having the time of their lives. When the clock starts to chime. Cinderella starts running away before the spell would wear off, revealing her usual self. While running, Cinderella loses one of her glass slipper. The prince uses the glass slipper to find the mysterious girl whom he loved. All the maidens of the land try to fit their foot in the slipper, but to no avail. Finally, Cinderella is found by the prince, despite her being hidden by her stepmother. Cinderella and the prince then live happily ever after. Oh, and the stepmother and her daughters are banished form the land of course.

My favorite part of the movie is probably the fairy godmother part. It is very entertaining with Helena Bonham Carter as the godmother. It is fun to watch as she transforms everything plain into something majestic as she gets Cinderella ready for the ball. Though I am more of a dark fairy tale type of person, this movie is fun and entertaining to watch and everyone who loves Disney movies should watch it if they haven't already.
