Cinderella's Curse

This was nothing but a low rent Carrie remake with a hint of the Cinderella fairy tale thrown in. There really isn't anything good I can say about this. I only gave it a two because it killed an hour on a Saturday night. Not bad if you want to make a drinking game out of finding all the continuity errors.

Every one of the characters and the actors were annoying. The "effects," what there were of them, couldn't have been worse if they were hand drawn and animated by a three year old with a crayon. The flashbacks were annoying and made no sense whatsoever. The opening sequence had zero bearing on the rest of the movie at all.

Oh good.... Minimum character limit met. Thank God, because I could not talk about this trainwreck any longer.

Of course I am familiar with the classic fairy tale, upon which this 2024 is loosely based, and I must admit that it was with a certain amount of skepticism when I sat down to watch what director Louisa Warren had to deliver with thee 2024 movie "Cinderella's Curse". But with it being movie that I hadn't already seen, and a horror take on the fairy tale, of course I opted to check out the movie.

Writer Harry Boxley was very liberal in his dismemberment of Charles Perrault's original "Cinderella" fairy tale. Sure, there were similarities, but the script was very loosely based on the original work. With that being said, don't get me wrong, because I am not saying that it was all bad. The script actually proved to be entertaining, surprisingly enough, taking into consideration the premise of the script. It was as if writer Harry Boxley decided to make an unholy union between the original "Cinderella" fairy tale and the "Carrie" movie from 1976.

The random flashes of horrors yet to come that was used in abundance ultimately grew annoying, because director Louisa Warren overdid it. They were too numerous and too frequent, disrupting the narrative more than it furthered the narrative.

I was only familiar with Chrissie Wunna and Danielle Scott on the cast list. Yeah, I've seen my share of low budget horror movies to be familiar with those two. It should be noted, however, that the acting performances in the movie were actually fair.

The special effects in the movie were surprisingly good. And I have to say that I was somewhat surprised at the level of visceral mayhem and gore that was displayed throughout the course of the movie. It was something that most definitely helped adding to the overall enjoyment of the movie.

My rating of Louisa Warren's interpretation of the classic fairy tale in the form of "Cinderella's Curse" lands on a four out of ten stars.

I stopped watching this movie just after 25 or 30 min. Such a terrible movie.

This movie describes that living human beings are more evil than ghost. How bad those two evil sister harm their servant.

I stopped movie after that scene. Such a awful and terrible baddest of bad & worst movie ever.

Whoever is the writer and director, you guys have no mind and feelings. Of you can't think anything good then atleast do not promote evil behavior and personality.

Conjuring & the nun is way better than this. Government should banned movies like Cinderella's curse and other. They should suspend this movie immediately. 🚫

... it's just so poorly executed. I.e, the storytelling is s**t. It doesn't unfold in any good way. We're thrown into an action scene to start. It's a teaser. It shows us the kind of thing to expect in the rest of the movie. "This is what we're selling" the filmmakers are saying. All right. But then following that, instead of going into a proper beginning where everything is clearly set up, we meet the protagonist, we are given a reason to like them and root for them, etc, etc, we're just thrown into the middle of another bit of action, but it's just meaningless dramatics at this point because nothing has been set up. We're feeling nothing, nor could we be expected to because we know nothing yet about what's going on. The director's storytelling instincts just aren't there. Unfortunately this is a movie that starts off on the wrong foot and pretty much just hobbles along from there.

Absolute waste of time.

Terrible storyline, terrible casting, poor production, poor acting. Cinderella should be young and the actress hired is aging poorly.

No plot spoilers here because theres nothing I can say that would spoil it as there's no story to tell.

The movie is as good as a poorly rehearsed school production. Unnecessarily gory. Not remotely scary. Feels like a rubbish comedy. I actually can't believe this was released in cinemas and then more so that I paid to waste my time.

I should have read the reviews here because the majority are pretty accurate in regards to how terrible this movie actually is.
