Hey Cinderella!

This film has everything that you might ask for in a Muppets film. Good humour, story and characters.

I saw this movie as a child and think it is probably the most unique version of Cinderella I've ever seen! It is absolutely magical and real. I wish I could come across it again, it's sad, romantic, funny- everything a little girl could want. The genius behind the writing is that it isn't your typical fairy tale story where everything comes together once the prince finds his princess but takes a more unique approach to the most beloved story of all time. The ideas behind Cinderella's rag to riches transformation was magic of its own. And the fanciful approach with the muppets made the movie great for families. Jim Henson did it right when he made this one!

CINDERELLA is beautifully retold in this enchanting piece of entertainment: HEY CINDERELLA! I have no doubts this has to be one of Jim Henson's best specials ever. LABYRINTH (1986) was also a sensation. Belinda Montgomery is especially joyful as the youthful Cinderella. I really loved the fairy godmother. Kermit, Splurge and the rest of the cast were equally adorable. The Muppets are one of the key things in making a good rendition of a fairy tale e.g. THE FROG PRINCE starring Kermit the Frog.

I watched this as a kid so I'm definitely a little biased, but I think this movie is a 10/10

Watching again as an adult I still think it's a classic. A funny remake of a classic story, with some great one liners.

One thing you have to keep in mind is that this film is old, very old. The sets are very cheap, the production is very very low. However this is something I never noticed as a kid, and I don't really mind it.

Chances are though if you don't have that nostalgia it might be hard to watch, unless you can see past it.

I'll continue to watch this again and again and it will always be a classic for me.
