Review #8618 - Dated: 24th of May, 2013 Author: mizim |
Yet another take on the story of Cinderella, her evil stepsisters and her evil stepmum. In this version we have Sam, a smart young girl who is treated like a slave, she has to work at the diner her father started (which has had a pink, awful makeover) and is generally treated like crap. She ends up chatting on-line with the school hunk and they fall for each other, even though at school he treats her like a no-body.
This isn't too bad a take on the Cinderella tale and would be good for the teen age range. Set in a highschool, as where else could it be set in the present day. The characters don't require much depth and I would have to say that the best characters are not the main characters, they are Sam's best-friend and her friend at work.
While this is a film that doesn't need any thought to it etc. it is a nice enough film and would be good for teens, and the best part would be at the end where Sam says that she doesn't need to worry about happy ever after as she's still young.
