| Synopsis:
Set around the modern world of the music business, the classic fairy tale "Cinderella" is recast with Mary Santiago, a natural-born dancer at heart, as the orphaned, put-upon princess-to-be, working for cruel pop star Dominique and her two horrible daughters, Britt and Bree. After years of abuse at the wicked trio's hands, Mary, now a junior at ritzy Beverly Hills High School, is counting down the days until her dance audition for the prestigious Manhattan Academy of Performing Arts, where she hopes to transfer for a bright future away from Dominique and her over-demanding brood. When teen pop sensation Joey Parker returns to Beverly Hills High to finish up school like a "normal" teen, the stage is set for a masquerade dance, mistaken identity, and a search for the girl who dropped her iPod (the modern equivalent of a glass slipper) while fleeing from the dance. This modern fairy tale proves you don't need a fairy godmother to make magic happen, or to have a happy ending! |

I'VE JUST WATCHED THIS MOVIE AND LOVED IT. DREW AND SELENA ARE GREAT ACTORS, SINGERS AND DANCERS AND THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THEM IS SPARKLING. IT MADE ME REMEMBER WHAT IT IS LIKE TO FALL IN LOVE. IF YOU LOVE ROMANCE, GREAT MUSIC AND DANCING, THIS IS A MUST HAVE.

My family really enjoyed this movie. Great Dancing, the songs are fun and the story is appropriate for kids. It is a really fun family movie. We bought the movie a few weeks back and have watched it a number of times. I would say it campares to the music and fun of High School Musical. I recommend it for any Disney Channel fans or Nickelodeon Fans.
I also recommend the CD.

I was surfing the internet one day and I came across a plot for Another Cinderella Story.
I thought, imidiatly, oh no! Don't do it! Sequals to happily ever after movies like A Cinderella Story never work! Never.
Boy, was I wrong.
I watched this expecting the worst [and I knew that Disney Channel Stars would, of course, be playing the lead parts] and I was pleasently surprised.
I actually like this movie just as much as the first. I think the fact that it's a Dance movie with lots of plot changes and twists makes it edgey and a good laugh!
I must say, although I wasn't expecting to, I really enjoyed this!
And Selena Gomez is a very talented actress/singer/dancer which I hadn't realised before watching this. I don't think Disney Channel does her justice.
Drew Seeley was also very good and I hadn't realised he could act. I thought he was just a singer.
All in all I loved it and I think it's worth checking it out if you're a Dance movie fan or if you like the first Cinderella Story.

2008's Cinderella Story is a cute, child-friendly story about a washed up pop-star named Dominique who's deceased dancer left her daughter Mary(Selena Gomez) in her custody, and now of course she slaves away for her doing terrible and ridiculous things like vacuuming the driveway. Mary secretly desires to be a dancer, stowing away to class hidden behind the mirror, where only she can see how good she really is; that is until teen idol Joey Parker(Drew Seeley) comes back to his 'roots' to finish high school and be a 'normal teenager'.
The high school goes crazy when Joey arrives, especially when he announces his upcoming contest for the best dancer to dance with him in an upcoming project. Post the school's black and white dance where Mary and Joey tango together he can't forget about his mystery girl, and is looking for her with her music player she left at the scene of the crime.
I do have a number of complaints the foremost being that fact that along with the previous 'Cinderella Story' I am not stupid enough to believe that wearing a small mask hides who you are, last I checked that eyes were the window to the soul, and I can see clearly that you are in the red dress Selena, I can see that you are dancing with Drew, it is not difficult. (Same goes for you Miss. Duff!)
Also the fact that Seeley is 10 years older then Gomez freaks me out just a little, and no wonder the complete lack of chemistry. (What happened there?)
Overall it's a cute, predictable movie that is perfect for it's target audience, which can't be said for some of the others in it's category.
