Summary: Cinderella 2: dreams come true. Believe in yourself...
Review: cinderella 2: dreams come true has been released in the uk before the usa. It's very sweet.

Obviously aimed at a younger audience. It's 3 stories the 3rd being my favouraite. Includes all of the characters from the original such as Lady tremain and her cat lucifer. It is enjoyable but now way as good as the original and the modern pop music does'nt seem to fit. but overall it develops Cinderella's beautiful character and charm.

My 9 year old sister watched it 4 times in a row today so It must be good.

Review: Another one?

I saw this on Disney's cartoon channel. (Toon Disney?) And I was so very glad I had not invested any money in purchasing or renting it. It felt cheap, corny, and just wrong. Why did this film need to be *made*?

The film was really three different stories - and I felt that each one added very little to the Cinderella story at all. The fairy godmother is just now apparently everyone's fairy godmother. Even the mouse!

While some younger girls I know liked the film, they agreed it wasn't up to the standard of the orginal stories. Frankly, Walt Disney would be sick. Why he isn't haunting the heck out of the company's higher-ups, I'll never know.

Don't bother with this one.

Summary: I don't know...
Review: Which was a bigger crime against childhood: Making this movie at all, or deciding to charge $26 for it

The movie, if you can call it that, is actually a series of vignettes told by the mice of all people. Only one is specifically about Cinderella, one is mainly about Jaque the mouse, and one is about Anastasia the formerly evil stepsister.

The one about Cinderella is first and within the first 3 minutes, Prince Charming leaves on business, leaving Cinderella to the "domestic" task of planning some party with some crabby lady who's always done it before to teach her how things are done in the palace. Cinderella is completely unable to take on the "princess role" grows tired of this and decides to do it her own way, which is of course infinitely more fun than the royal way.

In the second the fairy godmother (who apparently grants wishes to mice now) turns Jaques into a human because he wants to be able to help her. He is, of course, still afraid of PomPom the castle cat. Turns out he likes being a mouse. Then there is this totally contrived situation where the king is clinging to a rampaging elephant that can only be stopped by, you guessed it, a mouse. Jaques is turned back into a mouse and saves the day.

The third short is about Anastasia who falls in love with the baker. Stepmother hates this of course, but with two or three words of encouragement Anastasia stands up to mom and invites the Baker to the ball.

I understand the desire to have Cinderella do something other than get rescued by falling in love with a prince, but geez, put an ounce of effort into it!

The "plot" in this "movie" is the only thing worse than the animation, which is not any better than the original Cinderella, and might in fact be worse.

I know, I'm an adult, and clearly not the target market for this "movie". My daughter is though. This is the child that sat through all of Monsters Inc at age 16 months, not to mention all the other original disney flicks. She's 3 now, and even 1 week after a trip to Disneyland, which solidified her obsession with Cinderella, she loses interest in the movie after 30-40 minutes.

If your little one MUST see it, rent it from Blockbuster for $1. Or better yet, from the library for FREE. Don't waste hard earned cash on this junk.

Summary: Dreams Come True- When?
Review: Cinderella II was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. There's no plot, crappy music, anamation is completly just your avrage saturday morning cartoon. And it's not even a movie. It's just three episodes for a possible Cinderella Series, which never happend. These Horrible Sequals really Have none these from the greatest orginals:

1. The Great Feel and Charm
2. The Best and Great Music
3. The Happy Ending.

THE HAPPY ENDING THE HAPPY ENDING THE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDINGTHE HAPPY ENDING!!!!!!!!

That Is Were Disney Should Leave It!!!!!!!!

Summary: Cinderella 2
Review: I am a huge fan of Cinderella and was super excited when I found out they were making a second one. When I watched it I was slightly disappointed. Where was the continuation of the rags-to-riches/love story? This DVD is not what I was looking for in a sequel. However, I have an almost 2 year old daughter and she loves it! There are no scary or violent parts and she loves the mice! I feel very comfortable letting her watch it. And would recommend it to anyone with a young daughter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than I thought.
Review: I bought this movie, and I thought that the movie was going to be bad after reading all the reviews that I had about the movie. After I got the movie and watched it, I was glad to see that it was better than my original expectations of the movie. I'm sure that there aren't many people who would agree with me, but I thought that the movie was better than the 1st movie although not by much.
