Cinderella and the Secret Prince

I have to say, for the current animation films industry, a lot of IP have been over-used. This film is the same and it uses the IP of Cinderella, but the reason why it interests me is that it presents a completely different Cinderella. it gives some much-needed chemistry to Cinderella's and the prince's romantic charm, and I must say, it works for me. There is one line still impressed in my mind, I am going to save him. Yeah! why not ! old IP, but new plot !!!!! I like it !

Very poor animation marrs this film and coupled with amateurish voice over-acting, dingy backgrounds and ugly models makes it a difficult and unenjoyable watch. Don't bother.

I checked out the profiles of the other 'people' who reviewed this movie and all joined 4 months ago (from the date I am writing this) and all have only reviewed one movie. Don't believe what they have written, they're fake.

The story starts out just like Disney's Cinderella : there is a royal ball, Cinderella is forbidden to go by the evil step mother, she is helped by her mice friends, gets magical help and goes to the ball. But the prince turns out to be an imposter, while the real prince is under a curse, that Cinderella decides to help to break.

The idea is nice, but the execution is not great. The pace of the action scenes feels off, the scenes go from slow to big action to slow again without warning, which is the biggest problem for me. I wasn't surprised by the plot twists but I suppose kids will be. And finally the ending is really abrupt, it left me with a feeling that the movie was incomplete. Not because the situation the characters are in is dissatisfying but the narration is really bad and makes it seem worse than it is.

Overall, the story had potential but the final product is not as good as it could have been.

My husband and I took our daughters to watch this movie cause we think every little girl should have a princess dream! I think this movie is good for:

1. it gives the audience a fabulous and fancy fairytale, sweet not only to my girls, but also to me. Just felt so sweet and happy when watching the fancy ball and the romantic dance on the grassland!

2. I think it's a more mordern interpretation of the story. Really like the idea of Cinderella saving her prince! This film taught my girls to be brave and independent, as a boy while still being a princess.

Like it! Really should give it a shot!

I haven't watched it, but my two children aged 6 1/2 and 5 liked it a lot. They asked to see it again and again over several weeks. The adults who wrote reviews about this movie maybe should have a child see it first, after all it is meant for children, right?
