A Cinderella Story 3

Without a doubt the greatest movie ever made. I treat this like how men treat fight club. Its a film for hot girls so if you don't like it you're probably ugly. Can only be compared to the brilliance of citizen kane, scarface, and the godfather, except lucy hale can sing and that b*stard al pacino cant.

So this is the third film in the franchise of modern 'Cinderella' adaptation. It was not like a film series that follows from one film to another. All the films were individual and thematically same at the core, but told from different perspectives with different cast and characters. I have seen the previous two and they were not bad. Maybe you can say I watched it for Lucy, otherwise I was not interested in it. A decent film, but you know, we know the story how everything's going to happen, which is the negative side of giving it a try. I felt they should have altered a bit with the more it to look like a real Cinderella story from the visual aspect. Like suspense between Cinderella and the prince. Though the step-family part was up to the satisfaction in a simple manner. Now coming to that magical event, as this takes place in the modern world and without magics, I liked how they showed that part as much as realistically. But in the name of Bollywood/Indianess, they wrongly depicted everything. I mean the costumes, songs, choreography, all were close to Indian style, except the female costumes, which became Arabian nights. Because Indians won't cover their head or face, culturally or religiously. That was a big mistake and if you are a western viewer, this won't be an issue, so you might enjoy the film. I think it's an okay film, one time watchable film, but I would suggest previous films over this. 6/10

I'm a big fan of the Cinderella saga, so this movie piqued my curiosity right away, however I was underwhelmed. Katie lives with her stepmother Gail, stepsister Bev, and stepbrother Victor, all of whom make life tough for her. Katie's only way out was through her music, which was taken away from her as well. She had to pretend to sing for Bev in order to be discovered by famous music producer Guy, and if she refused, Gail threatened to seize her inheritance money and deny her best friend's scholarship. What would you have done if you had found yourself in such situation? "Make You Believe" was the only song I liked.
