Cinderella

Wow, where do you begin to describe this movie. This is the one that mothers tried to sue video stores over renting them and finding their kids were watching an adult version.

Now don't get me wrong, this is NOT X-rated, but your typical Friday night HBO T&A type movie. But the wild part is, it's still a musical!! And many of the tunes you'll be singing in your head for days after.

This movie does not try to be serious anywhere. It's a very funny movie. It has all the ingredients for a great movie, it just isn't, but that is the fun of it.

The "fairy godmother" is a black, gay-acting man! What a twist.

There is nudity abound, but most of my female friends thought the movie was hilarious too.

If you're looking something just a little bit different, funny, amorous and a blast to watch; rent this today, better yet, buy it so you can force your friends to watch it with you.

You have to be in the mood for this movie. (maybe a brewski and no dress if in Ohio). If you know what to expect, you will like this.

This movie is a living adult comic book, and as such all of the actors except Cheryl Smith (Cinderella), play their roles predictably and very campy. They got it...don't take this seriously and overact. Pretend you are in a High School play. Cy Richardson reprises his role from "Faery Tales", and fits in just fine here. The film I viewed was from cable many years ago, and it shows obvious choppy editing which removed, I presume, some X stuff. Probably these cuts improved the film (such as was claimed by the reviewers of "Alice in Wonderland). The direction is right on target for a sophomoric film. The Chamberlain dismounts his horse and falls screaming down an unseen cliff. He bumps his head while seriously speaking in a farmer's hut. He has an episode with a knife and his finger, ala three stooges minus two (see also Jerry Lewis). This fits if you are really in the mood for this type of film. Doooooooooooooo, Dooooooooooooooo, Dooooooooooooo enjoy.

Cheryl Smith stands out in this film because she acts her part seriously and seems to miss the juvenile theme of this movie. Her acting makes this movie work. Intentional or not, her acting evokes the demanded sympathy toward her character. She is really outstanding here, either by design or because she really thought this was a serious film. Without her it would be junk. Good mindless fun to watch. I liked it.

I saw this film at the cinema when it was first released. An adult rated fairytale sounded interesting but what I saw was an absolute gem. A camp comedy musical soft core skin flick - how different is that? I've seen several adult interpretations of fairytales but this beats them all into a cocked hat. Cheryl Smith who sometimes uses the name Rainbeaux in other films is on top form playing it straight as a foil to the comedic campness of the other cast members, especially Sy Richardson who gives a whole new meaning to the term Fairy Godmother.

I'm sure you all know the Cinderella story but this one being an adult version, various changes have been made to justify the adult rating. It isn't Cinderella's prowess on the dance floor that so enchants Prince Charming and it isn't a glass slipper that must be the perfect fit. Come on now, this is an adult film, you don't need to be a rocket scientist to work that one out.

This version of Cinderella is probably the most enjoyable fairytale romp ever committed to screen, hilarious, erotic and entertaining. Recommended.

I remember renting this in high school because the cover seemed to portray a porn film, yet this wasn't in the "big wooden cabinet." It attempts to be a soft-core pornographic comedy, which I guess it succeeds at without ever really delivering on the "pornographic" or the "comedy" part. Strangely enough, I've talked to many other people and if this film is mentioned, they've all seen it. Why? I don't know. Two memorable parts are the black man playing a fairy godmother (?) and the king announcing "The Kingdom has a Snapper!" (You'll have to figure that one out yourself.)

I remember this when I was in High School and I lived in the Philadelphia area, we had a channel there called "Prism" and Friday and Saturday nights they use to show Unrated movies like this and when your 13 yrs old and seeing boobs it's the greatest thing ever. Yes the movie is cheesy but that's the fun of it, everything can't be "The Deer Hunter" I haven't seen this in probably 38 years and I'll probably laugh at it for being bad but movies like this made staying up on Friday and Saturday so much fun as a kid.
