Le soulier magique

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 just wanted something easy to watch and this was exactly that. It's not an award winning, never before done, change your view of the world movie, just simple, lighthearted and fun. I look forward to watching it again.

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.

This movie, although obviously low in budget and made for T.V, is sweet and entertaining. You find yourself getting caught up in the romantic feel of the film, and although you think Salvitore is a twit, you can't help but want Kelly to land up with him. Rob Lowe also is a plus to this film, and even though Jennifer Grey had already lost her Dirty Dancing teenage gawkiness, you still like her and hate the "ugly sisters". It has a happy ending and an enjoyable plot line, although intensely impossible in many parts, like the rapid changing scenes. You won't be disappointed with this film if your looking for a hunky leading man, a cute, quirky leading lady and a fairytale ending!

If you're looking for great drama and deep meaning, skip this one. But if you want a new twist on a familiar story, try it. Cinderella was never more fun and Jennifer Grey is quite wonderful. Rob Lowe is beautifully self-absorbed. The fairy god-mother is a hoot! Vain roommates, greedy co-workers and sycophants round out a rather non-traditional cast and keep the spirit light. And I always cheer when "Cinderella" takes charge of her own destiny. I enjoy it all over again at each viewing. The look inside the world of the fashion industry and the quest to be one of the beautiful people just adds to the pleasure. It is just plain fun!
