A Perfect Rendition of the Classic Cinderella

For any girl who feels the desire to escape the realms of her own reality, this 2015 re-working of the classic Cinderella is the film to see.




Every aspect of this film was spot on; from the plot to the character portrayal and costume designs. I especially loved the casting. Lily James for example was an exceptional choice for the role of Cinderella; she was the perfect combination of elegant and innocent.

  Cate Blanchett was also absolutely fantastic with her performance as the evil stepmother; she was spot on with her deceitfulness and frigid personality.

There have been several adaptions to the 1950 film, most of which were modernized to resemble real life but I think it's great that someone thought to recreate the first film while maintaining the original concept.



This movie is not only enjoyable for children of all ages but also for adults of all ages. I myself went with my grandmother and mom (who saw the film originally with her boyfriend.) I would  recommend this movie to all of my friends and family members. You will thoroughly enjoy it.
