Me A This was my absolute favorite rendition of cinderella! I loved it as a young teen when it first came out.. it actually made me pay attention to the storyline lol. As an extra extra adult, I have to go back every few months and we watch it.. just so refreshing and made me feel like I could be a desirable princess when I was a young girl... Think it's a very important rendition :-) Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/02/24 Full Review SkyRo P The 1997 adaptation of "Cinderella" is a remarkable and unique take on the beloved fairy tale that surprised and delighted viewers. Despite the Cinderella franchise being perceived as overdone, this version managed to stand out with its captivating storyline and impressive performances. Featuring Brandy Norwood and Whitney Houston in the lead roles of Cinderella and the fairy godmother, respectively, this interpretation brought a refreshing twist to the classic tale. The stellar cast, including standout performances by Norwood, Houston, and Bernadette Peters, added depth and charm to the film, making it a memorable and enjoyable watch. The film's diverse representation, with Cinderella portrayed as African-American, offered a fresh perspective on the traditional story. This change did not detract from the film's appeal but instead added to its allure, showcasing the beauty and universality of the Cinderella narrative in a new light. Overall, the 1997 version of "Cinderella" is a captivating and delightful interpretation that successfully reimagines the classic fairy tale. With its talented cast, engaging storyline, and unique twists, this adaptation remains a standout favorite that resonates with audiences for its creativity and charm.

Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/11/23 Full Review Alec B Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella is a delightful and inclusive reimagining of the classic fairy tale, brought to life by a stellar cast led by Brandy and Whitney Houston. This made-for-TV musical adaptation effortlessly modernizes the story while retaining the timeless charm of the original. Brandy's portrayal of Cinderella is both spirited and endearing, and her enchanting chemistry with Paolo Montalban's Prince Charming adds depth to the romance. Whitney Houston shines as the Fairy Godmother, not only showcasing her vocal prowess but also her regal presence. The film's diverse cast and colorblind casting are notable and heartwarming, promoting a message of unity and acceptance. While the production may show its age in terms of special effects, the enchanting musical numbers, including "Impossible" and "Ten Minutes Ago," remain showstoppers. Cinderella is a heartwarming and visually splendid musical that delivers a fresh take on a beloved classic, reminding us of the enduring power of dreams and kindness.
