Trois vœux pour Cendrillon

What a mess, the prince' best buddies kissing, Cinderella and prince not kissing. Prince adopted or mommy Queen had an affair..? Prince looks nothing like his parents and I find it hard to believe they raised such a moron. Cinderella and prince seemed to have nothing in common except horse racing. Nice horses and nice scenery, and the cruel stepmother (Ellen D. P) did a good job.

No pun intended - and quite obvious from the beginning. Yes we do get the classical story (which I assume you are aware of, but will not go into details just in case), but our main character (heroine) is not sitting idly when we first meet her. She also is not doing chores. No she tries to get back to where she is supposed to be, without being noticed (caught).

So yes, this version is a bit of an update. Do not think that this is "woke" though - it is always nice to have some extra spins on things. To get a bit of difference to other versions that exist. Acting wise this is fine - for what it is of course. Keep that in mind and be the judge if the movie is something you want to watch anyway.

I was a bit disappointed when I saw this in relation to the original from 1973. I do not think it was wise to have actors who were so different from the original. The humor was not quite there either. Maybe it would have been best if the country of origin had made this remake in English language?

There is in a way so much that is missing, that I do not think this will be a Christmas classic: p Sad since this could have been so much more: p.

I'm surprised how some "critics" who are not very objective dare to rate this film with a 1 or a 2. A film is rated by its everything, including acting, photography, set design, music, plot, script, genre and of course if we like it or not. Everything adds up, and he is not only absurdly punished for some subjective aspect. This film, although it does not deserve a 10, has a beautiful photography, a valuable mise-en-scène and a light but connected plot. The special effects are also well set and just right for the type of film. It is also enjoyable and entertaining for the whole family and is a different version of the Cinderella story. I give it a 7.

There were only two things that I liked about this movie: the landscape and the horses.

But this does not save an otherwise soulless movie.

This is probably what you get when diversity and political correctness take precedence over acting skills and a decent script.

This entire movie is nothing but a sorry effort of a remake.
