Cinderella is the modern adaptation of the famous Fairy Tale, a classic story of rags to riches with a lot of magic thrown in. Quite honestly the story is a classic in itself and it would do some doing to spoil it, in other words you just cannot go wrong, right? Right? Wrong! The screenplay is a royal mess. This is a musical which was a great thing but somehow right from the opening scene there was this unsettling feeling, probably a feeling of getting on with things that was doing the rounds. Was it to do with the tried and tested approach or just simply the vibe of the film, I cannot be quite sure of. The sequences created are just too bland and vanilla with little to no soul in them. Quite honestly the screenplay was a bit of a slog that kept stretching throughout. And the twist in the second half towards the end would have been a good one had it been in another universe. The magic of believing in things was just missing her. Usually I do have some positives, well here probably the costumes and the production design are quite good but if I am mentioning them under the “screenplay” category then you would know that the screenplay is indeed a royal mess upto a point that I didn’t care towards the end as to where this film was taking me.
