| User ReviewMatthew GVery interesting from a perspective of an ugly stepsister, i did not find the ugly stepsister ugly. and Cinderella was not a flawless beauty but the whole story was sweet:) |
| User ReviewAmanda CSome view from the other side... Far better than I expected. |
| User ReviewSocsy Ti actually liked this film. it's a very interesting spin on the well-loved cinderella story. loved the character iris played by azura skye and how she portrayed the talented, intelligent but less glamorous and less significant "ugly" stepsister. she would have won the prince's affections with her wit and character if only he never laid eyes the more beautiful cinder girl. men are so easily blinded by beauty. tsk tsk tsk...it only goes to show that princes are indeed stupid and that they're better off with the less interesting princesses, whereas strong and talented women like iris deserve so much better! |
| User ReviewAlec Bi stumbled upon the book after i finished reading wicked, but i was never able to finish the book. love the way they interpreted the story. |
