Magic Woman

This is a wonderful take on the Cinderella Story. It's cute but different. It focuses on the confidence rather than the short end of the stick. The step sisters are terrible, slovenly roommates and the man up for grabs is the egocentric Rob Lowe who gets a reality check when he falls in love. It's entertaining.

I can see why most people might rank this movie poorly but it all lies in expectations. I classify this movie as a wonderful "cheesy movie fix". It is a carefree, entertaining movie. The acting is commendable. There is conflict where you find yourself rooting for people and hoping that the heroine makes out in the end.

I have introduced many of my friends to my "cheesy movie collection" and they always fair well.

"And that's entertainment"

I really like Rob Lowe and Jennifer Grey, but NOT this movie.

Thank God they've all gotten so much better in their acting and their script selections in the last 30 years!

If The Shoe Fits is a modern reworking of the Cinderella legend with Rob Lowe, Jennifer Grey and a whole bunch French players. Just getting a trip to Paris to shoot there would have been reason enough for me to take the roles.

A wardrobe girl at designer Rob Lowe's house of fashion, Jennifer Grey is a bit of a drudge who lives with a pair of models who think they're something special. But one day Grey finds a pair of abandoned shoes who a kind fairy godmother enchants. She wears those and she's Cheryl Tiegs. And does Lowe ever notice, especially since she wants to design shoes for his house.

Lowe's a bit of a stretch as Prince Charming. As is said his world is populated by images of beauty. He finds it hard to relate to people. Not the most charming of fashion princes, but love always has its own reasons.

Lowe, the successor to Tyrone Power in those hero/heel roles and Grey and the rest of the cast perform well in this modern fable of Cinderella. Worth a look if you are a fan of the aging Brat Packer.

Hurrah I thought Rob Lowe and Jennifer Grey in a movie together and it's a rainy Saturday. Dreadful! Over acting , musical score all over the place and totally unbelievable. So disappointed! What utter trash . Worst Cinderella adaptation ever.
