Le soulier magique

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!

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!

I love Rob Lowe. Don't mind Jennifer Grey. Love the 80's. Love a cheesy romance but I have never seen anything as bad as this. I kept watching hoping, praying it would improve and it didn't. The acting was shocking, the background music to heavy one minute and non-existent the next. The whole concept of Cinderella is that the Prince Charming character is good, kind and lovable. Salvitore is non of those things.

Life is far too short to watch this and there are many great romantic 80's movies that are worthy of your time.

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!

The movie is so poorly done that even though bit is a Cinderella story, the writing and directing leave so much to be desired. The comedy barely worked, the acting should have been better, the actors were doing their jobs, but it didn't work at all. A miss for both Rob Lowe and Jennifer Grey.

Lowe's character asking to sleep with Jennifer's character is kind of sickingly in bad taste and of a different time, more the sixties rather than 1990.

The French cast is inspired as a concept for Haute Couture, but they felt like they were B or C actors that just may not have worked with the director. It was too hard to tell there was so much wrong, it wasn't good overall.

Disappointing, and sad.
