What Parents Need to Know
About Ever After
Parents need to know that some profanity in the theatrical release has been removed to secure a PG rating for the video, but there is still one expletive. There is some action violence and a sad on-screen death. The plot may be a challenge to younger children, especially those expecting the story they know, so it's a good idea to prepare them for the differences.

Simply incredible!

This is one of our FAVORITE movies. The beginning scene where the father dies might need some pre-discussion with younger children.
Lives in Utah- I rate this title on for age 8 and give itMy concerns are:
- Excessive violence
- Inappropriate language
A very lovely movie
This is a very lovely movie. I first saw this with my Grandmother on video and recently bought it for myself on DVD as a result! I think the PG rating should stay where it is because of some violence, an extremely sad death and one sware word. The plot is magnificent and way better than the original disney cinderella. All the actors are brilliant and well chosen. Love this movie heaps!
- I rate this title on for age 8 and give itMy concerns are:
- Inappropriate sexual content
I've lost count of how many times I've seen it!!!! Over fifty thats for sure...
I love it! It's so great! The amount of sexuality in it is very small, The only amount is when one stepsister tries to be all sexy, but even this is switched to a good thing becuase the prince is turned off by her. He, just like all other men want to CHASE, not BE CHASED.

- Excessive violence
A smart retelling of a familiar tale
I always liked this movie and my daughter, who has loved the Cinderella story since she was little, likes it too. It shows Danielle as a strong intelligent woman who rises above a bad situation. One scene that bothered me -- when the stepmother beats Danielle and the next scene shows her stepsister bathing the wounds on her back and she couldn't walk well.My daughter missed it, but it seemed unnecessary domestic violence as the stepmother was already sufficiently mean. Otherwise it's a very smart retelling of a very familiar story. It even has Danielle saving the prince in one scene!

Not just another mushy movie...
This movie is very cute and heartwarming.However,this movie is not PG, it's actually PG-13. Why? Because it has a fair amount of sexual innuendo. mostly resulting from an evil stepsister and the prince. He stares at her and says she "looks well" while the camera focuses in on her chest. She also invites him to "look" on several occasions. there is also one s-word. however, this movie is very mild for a PG-13 and overall very good.

beautiful
This was a beautiful movie... there is almost nothing objectionable in it at all. (for those of you who think it needs to be edited watch a G rated movie instead!) It is definatly one of the best Cinderella re-tellings the step mother heartless as she was meant to be. ah what can i say? one of my favorites. but younger kids might be a little bored

A heart warming variation of the Cinderella tale
This movie was cast well. Drew Barrymore does a wonderful job as Danielle, and the rest of the cast does well in their roles. The stepmother is heartless and the older stepsister is selfish in very believable ways. I like how the younger stepsister sees through them. The prince's wedding with the Spanish princess left me laughing. The ball left me in tears. I rated this movie for kids 8 and up not because of any issues but because a younger kid might find it a little boring.

I hated the movie. i'm sorry, but it was just so boring!!! and im a senior citizen...so this was beyond boring. it had a lot of lovey-dovey rubbish in it...and if i get the chance to talk to the director, you do not want to see me with a rake!!! i payed good money to watch a good movie...and look what i got! boo! i hated the movie, and i POSITIVELY DISCOURAGE anyone who wants to come out of the movie looking alive.thank-you for listening to my review!

Awesome movie made dirty
Great movie, would recommend an edited version. There was a few insinuations of a eunuch, and there was a couple of strong swear-words. Get edited!!!

The Best Cinderella Story Ever!
You know, so many of the usual fairt tale stories are re-done. I cant even count how many Cinderella stories there are. But I must say that this one is excelent! It have that same girl-power charm but the whole setting and all the caracters are so different. For example, the fairy godmother is Leonardo Davinci! This is a movie that you need to see.

Good movie, but...
This is a great movie...except for some things. First, the main character lies to the prince to maintain appearances of nobility once she falls in love (and some before). The stepmother hates the heroine and sells her as property. The prince rejects the heroine once he finds out she is not really nobility, but takes her back eventually. Incorporates the fact that true love will prevail over all. It would help, however, to remind younger children not to go around looking for true love... I know from a babysitting-gone-wrong experience.
