Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time

I might not have been around too long, but i've learned that when you're with a girl (In this case it's my best female friend) watching kid flicks or chick flicks is a whole lot easier. In this case I spent just a little over an hour of my time watching the 3rd Cinderella installment. And I can't believe i'm about to write this...it was worth it.

The evil stepmother is sick of seeing her former slave enjoying life with the prince. Every day she wishes for vengeance. She finally gets it in the form of the fairy godmother's wand. What leads is a real hard effort from Disney to fill the void between the first and second Cinderella movies.

First off, No sequel nor prequel can beat an original. But Cinderella 3 came pretty darned close. I usually don't say that about Disney movies, since most of the sequels are simply trying to cash in on whatever they can get. But Cinderella 3 had something special. I don't know what, it just did. Maybe a lot of young people can relate to Anastacia, for example. They just want to find the love of their life. Maybe we just wanted to see injury added to insult to the evil stepmother. Or maybe we need to see why Cinderella was so nice to Anastasia in Cinderella II. There's so many reasons why this 3rd installment isn't in the 3 out of 10 star rank with multiple negative comments.

I give it 7 out of 10. If your best friend wants you to watch it with her, go for it.
