Cinderella's Revenge

This isn't the useal take of the cinderella we are used to seeing but i think it a intersting movie because i feel the movie show us what would happen if cinderella couldn't take the torture and abuse from her step-mom and her step-sisters anymore and what would she do when she snappeds also i think it shows us just how cruel and heartless her step-mom and step-sisters can be and how far they would go with their mistreatment of cinderella.

"Cinderella's Revenge" is exactly what you'd expect from a movie with that title-and I mean that in the best, most delightfully cheesy way possible!

If you're here for glass slippers turned into weapons, a princess kicking butt in a ball gown, and a plot so ridiculous that it works, then you're in for a treat.

The movie takes the classic Cinderella tale and flips it on its head, cranking up the action, drama, and-you guessed it-the cheese factor to 5 out 5 on the cheese scale.

Cinderella (played by Lauren Staerck) is no longer the sweet, soft-spoken girl waiting for her fairy godmother to save her. Nope, this Cinderella is out for blood, and she's serving it with a side of sass and sparkles. The evil stepmother and stepsisters better watch out because the glass slipper isn't just for dancing anymore-it's for fighting!

The dialogue is cringe and absolutely filled with groan-worthy one-liners like "This princess doesn't need saving-she's saving herself!" and "You mess with the slipper, you get the heel!" And I'll be honest, I was laughing through most of it, not because it was bad, but because it's just so gloriously over-the-top. It's clear the cast had fun with it, and that energy translates to the audience.

Visually, it's a riot of glitter and dramatic slow-motion fight scenes, all accompanied by a pop-rock soundtrack that feels like it belongs in the early 2000s (and I'm not mad about it). You've got Cinderella swinging a sword made out of enchanted pumpkin vines, dodging magical attacks from her stepfamily, and leading a rebellion of wronged fairytale characters-it's like if John Wick met Shrek at a midnight costume party with a plate of cheese snacks on the side.

Sure, the plot doesn't make much sense, and there are moments so absurd you can't help but roll your eyes-but that's what makes it so fun. It's cheesy, it's ridiculous, and it knows it. Cinderella's Revenge embraces the silliness, and honestly, in a world full of serious blockbusters, it's refreshing to see 2024 deliver a lineup of movies that doesn't take themselves too seriously like this one.

Well, if you enjoy the original "Cinderella" tale from Charles Perrault, then chances are that you might also enjoy this reinterpretation from writer Tom Jolliffe, provided you have a thing for homicidal maniac versions of peaceful characters.

I had the opportunity to sit down and watch the 2024 movie "Cinderella's Revenge", and opted to do so since it was a movie that I hadn't even heard about. And given it supposedly being a horror movie, of course I had to check it out. I have to admit, though, that I harbored zero expectations to it, given it's title.

Needless to say that this 2024 take on the story certainly is a lot more dark and sinister than the original story.

Of the entire cast ensemble in the movie, I was only familiar with Natasha Henstridge, and she had but a support role in the movie. It should be noted, however, that the acting performances in the movie were fair enough.

The effects in the movie were adequate. You're not in for anything grand, but the effects do work as intended. There are some nice enough scenes with mayhem and blood to please us gorehounds.

Watchable for what it was, director Andy Edwards's wasn't exactly an outstanding or memorable horror experience. I have to admit that turning the Cinderella character into a homicidal slasher just was a bit of an odd thing. So in a way, I suppose that this was a revenge movie, basically.

My rating of "Cinderella's Revenge" lands on a four out of ten stars.

Nice take on the glasig Cinderella Story.

The approach of assuming that cinderella could have taken bloody revenge on her stepmother and stepsisters for all evil they have done to her is actually a cool approach.

The Tiberius b-Movie vibes are undeniable and make the Movie only watchable for hardcore fans of third class work.

I am really wondering what on Earth made Miss Henstrige agree to play a part in this rather bad picture.

All actors deliver mediocre Performances while the Story more or less follows the original Story with Heavy splatter Moments being added.

The german dubbing is just as bad as you can expect from any Tiberius Production.

Before we get any further, **THIS IS NOT A DISNEY MOVIE! THIS IS NOT A KIDS' MOVIE!! IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT KIDS WATCHING THIS THEN YOU NEED A GOOD, HARD, WAKE-UP CALL YOU UTTER CLOWN!**

Now to the movie itself. It's barely watchable, even with Natasha Henstridge in it. The acting is terrible, the writing is terrible, anachronisms abound even BEFORE the Fairy Godmother summons Vidal Sassoon and co, and almost nothing about this makes any real sense.

You'd be better off watching the Blood & Honey movies if you want to see people's childhood stories 'ruined'.
