Review of Cinderella (2013) by Isidro G — 02 Jun 2016
Ella's Mother (Hayley Atwell): I have to tell you a secret that will see you through all the trials that life can offer. Have courage and be kind.
It's cute. it's a fairy tale. A little on the vapid side but then again, I am fairly cynical. Overall, the cast did a great job, but the real for this film for me was seeing Helena Bonham-Carter play the Fairy Godmother. Now that was a hoot. Cate Blanchett is always reliable to turn in a good performance, this film was no different. Lilly James and Richard Madden (Ella & Kit, a.k.a. Cinderella and Prince Charming), made a lovely on-screen couple, that it almost made you believe in happy endings...almost, like I said I'm just too cynical.
