CINDERELLA

The live-action Cinderella is a really good movie. It’s beautifully made and tells the classic story in a way that’s easy to enjoy. I like that they built upon her character in a way that gives her more agency. My 7-year-old daughter absolutely loves it and wants to watch it over and over again. It’s a great choice for families.

Seriously my favorite movie. The classic fairytale atmosphere is so strong here. It's simultaneously nostalgic and yet a story all its own. Highly recommend! I think this was Disney live action at its best.

The first time I saw the Trailer for this movie, I was instantly excited as a huge Disney Movie lover, and apprehensive. I remember thinking that the casting looked awesome, but the story seemed like it would be bland compared to the singalong animated classic I grew up with. Even as the movie starts out you are missing the singalong elements, but somehow you fall further in love until you're simply brimming with a quiet joyful contentment by the end (the kind that comes with a truly happy and well deserved "happy ending"). It's just enchanting, and I was delighted and surprised with how well paced the movie was and how it kept me interested all throughout, despite not having any real melodrama or big theatricality. Somehow, as if by...dare I say...magic, the movie manages to be enchanting and draws you in just in its simple story telling (OK and set design and wardrobe, casting and acting). Acting roles that should be cliche are fresh and new because they are 3 dimensional. Lily James manages to be perfect and somehow you can't be frustrated at her for just taking the abuse, seeing as how you can see hints of the subtle insidiousness of Lady Tremaine and her daughters. She is both tender and outwardly timid but she has a clear and definite inner strength and sense of self that carries her through it all and its portrayed fairly and believably. Cate Blanchette is perfect as Lady Tremaine, being both severe, cold, and beautiful and pitiable. She doesn't redeem herself but she has much more depth than just being "the villain". Jeff Adler was freakin perfect as Prince Charming or Kit, and I can't write this review without saying that even being a huge Game of Thrones fan I was astonished when I thought "Damn he looks familiar!" and IMDBd it to find out he's Robb freakin Stark. I think I didn't recognize him because he's always smiling and is clean shaven in Cinderella. He looks like two totally different people, and I guess at least partly a testament to his acting skills (and also he looks sooo much like a young Ewen McGregor). Ok now that I am done being a fangirl, he really did do a great job being both charming and truly lovable because while he is noble and brave, he's not prideful. The romantic exchanges between Kit and Cinderella are so sweet and bely a truly deep burgeoning love at first sight, it really is a fairy tale come to life, and because its production is not over the top it's that much harder to have it end and give way to real reality. This will definitely be one of the ones I replay a lot, well worth buying the HD version on Amazon.

Watching the 2015 live-action Cinderella was like stepping into a dream—a beautiful, enchanting dream that brought me straight back to childhood, twirling around in an imaginary ball gown and believing in magic. ✨ This movie didn’t just retell the classic story; it breathed new life into it, making it even more heartfelt and dazzling than I ever imagined. Lily James as Cinderella? Absolutely perfect. She embodied kindness, grace, and resilience so effortlessly that I couldn’t help but root for her with all my heart. And her singing voice? Pure magic. “Lavender’s Blue” was so soft and sweet that I instantly felt like a little kid again, humming along and pretending I, too, was a princess. Every detail in this film was breathtaking—the stunning costumes, the whimsical set design, the gentle yet powerful storytelling. And let’s not forget Cate Blanchett as the Stepmother—deliciously wicked, yet complex in a way that made her so compelling to watch. Above all, this movie reminded me why I fell in love with Cinderella’s story in the first place. It’s not just about the ballgown or the prince (though, let’s be honest, Richard Madden as Prince Charming was chef’s kiss 💙). It’s about kindness, courage, and believing in a little bit of magic. No matter how old I get, Cinderella (2015) will always make me feel like that little child who once dreamed of wearing glass slippers. And honestly? I wouldn’t have it any other way. 5/5 stars—pure enchantment! 👑✨

An amazing video! Since I am a Prime Video member, I ordered it and watched it immediately. It's a favorite.

Cinderella. Good adaptation.

Cinderella has always been my favorite fairy tale. I saw this film in the movie theater. I have to admit I enjoyed it more watching on the DVD. Lily James is absolutely lovely as our heroine. I can see why so many people questioned the size of Lily James's waist in the ball gown. Lily has beautiful chemistry with Richard Madden as our prince. He is handsome, charming, etc . . . and they meet beforehand in the woods foreshadowing the reveal of the ball. Derek Jacobi is loving as the king and Helena Bonham Carter is the most fun as the ditzy fairy godmother. The stepsisters are malicious but in a half baked way and didn't make much of an impression. The most intense and focused character is Cate Blanchett as the stepmother. In the commercials for the film, I thought she was an unusual choice. I guess I have not seen enough movies with her as the evil character. Costumed like Joan Crawford in slimy lizard green with painted red fingernails enhanced her outstanding performance. She is malicious, selfish and attempts blackmail with a crooked royal advisor in the subplot to marry her daughters to nobles as well as becoming a royal herself. The stepmother receives her comeuppance along with her royal partner. The final shot of her is priceless. She looks stuck in time like a mannequin on the stairway. After Cinderella leaves through the front door, the stepmother sits on the step somewhere in the middle of the stairway. The camera frame of this moment foreshadows most likely what will happen to her. She looks through the rails like a criminal worthy of a future imprisonment. For all her selfish and malicious behavior, the stepmother has more than earned her unknown punishment as she is banished most likely penniless forever from the kingdom. Buy it and enjoy.

Lily James is perfection as Cinderella in this adaptation, one of the finest of all Disney live-action remakes of their animated classics. She has the astonishing beauty, the guileless countenance, and apparently no waist, as her sculpted figure sails through this magical tale of love. Helena Bonham Carter is likewise magnificent as the Fairy Godmother, both wonderfully kind and strangely goofy. Cate Blanchett gives a hiss-worthy performance as the evil step-mother. The art direction is beautiful, Ella's transformation is delightful - the whole thing is juts a sheer joy.

I just loved this movie! I grew up with the Cinderella stories & i used to have Cinderella story books while i was a kid. This movie was pure nostalgia which made me remember my childhood memories- the good old days!! The same was with The Jungle book movie. Oh god why did i grow up😭 Elated to have this in my collection👍

Perfeito estado. Entregue bem embalado e no prazo mais curto. Gostei

"Cendrillon", sorti en 2015 et réalisé par Kenneth Branagh (Le réalisateur de "The Ryan Initiative", "Thor", "Hamlet" "Dead Again" et "Frankenstein" entre autres...), est un superbe film d'aventures dynamique et émouvant, inspiré du conte du même nom ainsi que du film d'animation de Disney sorti en 1949, qui a rencontré un très joli succès lors de sa sortie au cinéma. Une adaptation live signée Disney esthétiquement superbe et très réussie qui plaira aussi bien aux enfants qu'aux adultes, même si certains trouveront l'ensemble un peu "gnangnan". Le film nous raconte le destin de la jeune Ella. Vivant heureuse avec ses parents, la vie d'Ella va soudainement s'assombrir lorsque sa mère décède d'une grave maladie. Afin de noyer son chagrin, son père décide, avec l'accord de sa fille, de se remarier avec une veuve nommée Lady Tremaine. Cette dernière emménage chez Ella avec ses deux filles, Anastasie et Javotte. Un jour, le père d'Ella disparaît à son tour et laisse cette dernière à la merci de son horrible belle-mère et de ses filles, jalouses et cruelles. Elles font d'elle leur servante et se permettent même de la renommer Cendrillon car elle est toujours recouverte de cendres à force de dormir près de la cheminée pour se réchauffer l'hiver. Mais le destin d'Ella va changer le jour où elle rencontre en forêt un bel inconnu qui n'est autre que le prince du royaume... L'histoire, qui est très fidèle et similaire au dessin animé des studios Disney, est très intéressante à suivre et ne manque pas d'humour ni d'émotion. Le film possède des décors et costumes superbes ainsi qu'un rythme soutenu, on ne s'ennuie jamais. Les morceaux de bravoure ne sont pas très nombreux mais ils demeurent efficaces et les effets spéciaux sont très spectaculaires. Le casting est parfait, en particulier la ravissante Lily James qui campe une Cendrillon tendre et émouvante ainsi que Cate Blanchett, impeccable dans le rôle de la cruelle belle-mère. Ce sont clairement elles l'atout majeur du film. Le reste du casting n'est pas mal non plus, on notera également la présence de Stellan Skarsgard, Richard Madden et de l'excellente Helena Bonham Carter dans le rôle de la Fée Maraine. Bref, cette adaptation live de "Cendrillon" est une franche réussite, un film à la fois beau, drôle et touchant qui émerveillera petits et grands. Un divertissement prenant et de qualité, à voir absolument! Le blu-ray offre une superbe qualité d'image, digne du support HD. Les couleurs sont belles et l'image est très propre et nette. Rien à dire, c'est bien meilleur que le DVD. Au niveau du son, la VF est proposée en 7.1 DTS-HD HR. Un son de très bonne qualité même si la VO, qui est proposée en 7.1 DTS-HD MA, est un peu meilleure. En bref, si vous avez aimé le film d'animation des studios Disney du même nom, alors "Cendrillon" version 2015 devrait également vous plaire. Certes certains diront que ce film a parfois un côté un peu naïf mais dans l'ensemble, il demeure très réussi, émouvant et passionnant à regarder. Il contient tout ce qu'il faut pour passer un agréable moment en famille devant la télévision : Une histoire intéressante à suivre, des décors et costumes superbes, un rythme soutenu, des morceaux de bravoure efficaces et bien menés, des effets spéciaux spectaculaires, un casting impeccable, de l'humour et de l'émotion. Un excellent divertissement qui comblera un large public. Le blu-ray est exempt de tout reproche. Un achat sûr.
