This is a great movie that really supprised me. I thought it would be another romantic mush but it actually entertained me. I would put this on a must see list.

I loved this movie so much! Except for a few swear words and lies, I like how the story line flows. Drew Barrymore makes a spirited Cindrella character, stands up for others beside herself. I love that.

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!!!

Great retelling of the Cinderella Classic!

I like this movie a lot. When I was younger, I loved it. But as I grew older I began to realize what a bad and annoying actress Drew Barrymore is. I know most people will probably disagree with me, but I thought that this movie could have been much better with any good actress in the lead role besides her. She is so pouty that it's distracting. This film is very witty and well-written and has so many quotable lines. "I'm only here for the food," is one of our favorites. There is some sexual innuendo and language in it, but honestly, I never noticed it when I was younger and by the time kids are old enough to notice it, I think they will probably be mature enough to handle it. The costumes aren't too bad modesty-wise and the s-word (yes, there really is one) is almost inaudible since it is muttered (by Leonardo Da Vinci no less!). I like this movie, and think that it is fairly appropriate for kids.

Beautiful film with 5 star cast and top rate screenplay!

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!

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.
