TrueHello
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I Ain't didn't got no doubt for disney, so as i got caught for this disney movie Cinderella 1 and 3 are the best and about this full-grown frightened lovely sweet steady and beautiful young princess
girl called Cinderella whose foot does fit on her glass slipper and
she is the only one who had dance with the handsome young Prince charming man and she escape to evil young stepmother lady Termaine and her two young and younger stepsisters and have a
royal wedding important celebration.Now all the magic, wonder,
fate, destiny, and duty. And the relationship between a father and son and a father son relationship. And all the animation work that is
so very brilliantly believable and so very brilliantly unbelievable!

I love the original Cinderella, so after the disappointing Cinderella II my hopes were low. But it turned 180 degrees shortly after pressing play. As most people have complained, Cinderella and many other Disney Princesses from that time were passive and dull. In Cinderella's case, the prince was even duller, but Cinderella III: A Twist in Time managed to correct everything lacking about the original. The prince is hillarious in this one! His goofiness really adds to the enjoyment of this Disney sequel. Cinderella is also given much more action scenes and choices to make. The stepmother and -sisters also maintain their despicable nature and the stepmother is just as intimmidating or even more with the wand from Fairy Godmother in her hands. For a direct-to-dvd sequel, the animation is pretty damn good with great backgrounds and awesome effects especially in the action scenes. In short, Cinderella III: A Twist in Time, as silly as it sounds, is a highly recommendable Disney Sequel. Aladdin and the King of thieves is probably the best continuation of a classic Disney feature, but the best sequel in terms of self-awareness and overall quality definitely goes to this one.

I might not have been around too long, but i've learned that when you're with a girl (In this case it's my best female friend) watching kid flicks or chick flicks is a whole lot easier. In this case I spent just a little over an hour of my time watching the 3rd Cinderella installment. And I can't believe i'm about to write this...it was worth it.The evil stepmother is sick of seeing her former slave enjoying life with the prince. Every day she wishes for vengeance. She finally gets it in the form of the fairy godmother's wand. What leads is a real hard effort from Disney to fill the void between the first and second Cinderella movies.First off, No sequel nor prequel can beat an original. But Cinderella 3 came pretty darned close. I usually don't say that about Disney movies, since most of the sequels are simply trying to cash in on whatever they can get. But Cinderella 3 had something special. I don't know what, it just did. Maybe a lot of young people can relate to Anastacia, for example. They just want to find the love of their life. Maybe we just wanted to see injury added to insult to the evil stepmother. Or maybe we need to see why Cinderella was so nice to Anastasia in Cinderella II. There's so many reasons why this 3rd installment isn't in the 3 out of 10 star rank with multiple negative comments.I give it 7 out of 10. If your best friend wants you to watch it with her, go for it.

I, like many of those avid Disney fans out there, was outraged by the release of several sequels - such as Hunchback II, Cinderella II, Mulan II, etc. However, I think that Disney has realized that nobody really likes those crappy sequels - even the kids - and so has been upping it's game when it comes to straight-to-DVD-sequels; lately, the attempts at thirds has been actually quite good. After the success of the hilarious Lion King 1 1/2, the third Little Mermaid (Ariel's Beginning) definitely made par - Cinderella III: A Twist in Time also lives up to the standard set by both it's predecessor and what we've come to expect from Disney sequels.Cinderella is married to Prince Charming and living in the castle - her stepmother, Lady Tremaine, and her stepsisters, Drizella and Anastasia, are stuck doing all the chores she used to to. Jealous of Cinderella's happiness and craving her own happy ending, Anastasia manages to steal the Fairy Godmother's magic wand. Lady Tremaine, determined to get revenge on her stepdaughter, uses the wand to take them back in time and alter the past, so that Anastasia's foot ends up fitting the glass slipper. Also with the help of magic, Tremaine enchants the Prince so that he thinks Anastasia is the girl he danced with at the ball. Cinderella, with the help of her mice friends Jaq and Gus, must now fight for her happily ever after.I never liked Cinderella - I accept it as a timeless classic; I know it was groundbreaking for both animation and for film-making at the time it was made, and respect it for that. However, I never liked the story of a helpless heroine getting all she wants just because she has a good heart and befriends rodents. At least in the Grimm version, she had to really try to get her man (and there was some gore besides), but the Disney film really watered down the original grit.Thankfully, the grit was brought back in this second sequel - Cindy has to do so much in this film to get the Prince to remember her (such as overcome exile, kidnapping, and defeat a human version of the diabolical cat Lucifer) that we really see her turn from a worthy girl benefiting from Karma into a determined heroine. And, since the Fairy Godmother is frozen at the beginning of the movie, she must battle Tremaine's magic with nothing but her own wits.Cinderella III: A Twist in Time recaptures not only the drama of the Grimm fairytale, but also the magic of Disney hand-drawn animation, an art form that has been lost in the flashiness of CGI. I love computer-animated films, don't get me wrong, but I find they lack the intimate and personalized style of 2D animation. Somehow the beauty of hand-drawn animation manages to capture a humanity in characters and landscapes that you simply can't get with a computer - it turns the film into a work of art instead of just a movie. While this film's animation hasn't the beauty of other Disney flicks, it still retains enough of the magic to keep you riveted.All in all, despite obvious issues with Disney sequels, Cinderella III: A Twist in Time brings an interesting plot, more three-dimensional characters, and a little Grimm touch to an undeniable classic - all the while retaining the intimate feeling of hand-drawn cartoons.
