6/10

Sofia delivers

This is kind of different from the other installtments of Cinderella Story.

The evil stepmother is exhilarating, not as "evil" as the other films, I really laughed at most of her exaggerations, those were really funny and comedic, in their own silly way.

Sofia Carson, on the other hand, does a great job, as usual, we all know her.

She's got a great attitude and delivers some real feelings with her particular voice and her gorgeus dance moves and backstory.

Also, the chemistry with her and the loved one is palpable and sincere, which is never forgone, in minor romantic comedy music flicks.

You have to take movies like these as they are and enjoy them for WHAT they are, even if not a masterpiece. So, it's not a 10 out of 10 but it's nice and light, nevertheless. I give it a 6.
