A prince, a pumpkin, a glass slipper ... history's most enduring fairy tale returns with a thoroughly modern twist! Beautifully produced and featuring an all-star cast, RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN'S CINDERELLA shimmers to life in the most spectacular production ever of the classic musical -- including three additional Rodgers & Hammerstein songs exclusive to this special Disney presentation! Pop sensation Brandy (TV's MOESHA) stars as the beautiful Cinderella, who suffers the torment of her wicked stepmother (Bernadette Peters) and spoiled stepsisters. Cinderella dreams of the impossible -- going to the ball and dancing with the prince. Her impossible dream is realized when her fairy godmother (Whitney Houston) teaches her that with positive thinking and belief in yourself, "impossible things happen every day!" Also starring Jason Alexander (TV's SEINFELD) and Whoopi Goldberg (SISTER ACT), Disney's sparkling new version of RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN'S CINDERELLA promises to be an instant classic. Now you can relive the magic anytime you wish! |

More is not necessarily better. A glitzy Hollywood cast and a big budget did not improve the wonderful 1957 teleplay (or its equally charming 1964 remake) upon which this version is based. This is partly because Brandy, cast in the title role, cannot act. Not helping matters are Whoopi Goldberg as the prince's mother and Jason Alexander as his valet. Their shtick wears thin very quickly. However, Paolo Montalban is charismatic as the prince, and Whitney Houston plays a fairy godmother with pizzazz. The production cost millions, and is certainly lavish, but the whole affair feels forced and overdone, reminding one of a prom queen wearing too much makeup. It does deserve credit for a multi-ethnic cast, the addition of two new songs and a hip attitude. However, the 1964 version (the original was not taped) is much sweeter and more romantic. Originally released as Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella. --Rochelle O'Gorman |

Wonderful movie |
|
My family now has all 3 Rodger's and Hammerstien Cinderella movies. The first was made before my mother was born. The second while she was a youngster and the third while she was an adult. Our entire family love musicals, including the boys in the family. We rated all of them. And feel the Disney version is the best. The story line is basically the same and so are the songs. Each version may have a song that the other does not have. But the newest version of the movie is the best to us. |

Impossible not to enjoy! |
|
I really enjoyed this version of Cinderella. The multi-racial cast makes for a unique and interesting twist on the typical fairy tale, and is a nice update to previous versions. There is a lot of humor and some overacting in spots, but that's to be expected in this type of musical. The songs are fun, catchy, and well done(Whoppi's singing part is mercifully short). The sets and costumes are really gorgeous, but it is a slightly older movie and the picture isn't as clear as I would have liked it to be. Overall, it is a really enjoyable family movie and an uplifting story for all ages and all ethnicities! |

Poor Packaging |
|
Although I received the product in a few days, the seller could have better packaged the item. The dvd played good, but the dvd case was smashed, when I received it, due to poor packaging. |

Bought the DVD because my VHS tape was no longer working. This was shown on the wonderfull world of Disney many years ago. It is a musical version of Cinderella. |
