Cinderella is a pleasant retelling of the classic tale by Kenneth Branagh, who directed Thor. I really enjoyed the film and thought the visual effects that were used were spectacular. I liked the creative decisions made by Branagh especially everything that the Fairy Godmother changed for Cinderella. The costumes and production design were both fantastic and beautiful to view. The acting in the film is great, I especially liked Cate Blanchett as the evil Stepmother and Lily James as Cinderella. This film has fewer twists and changes to the classic tale as opposed to the changes that were made from Sleeping Beauty to Maleficent but there are indeed a few changes and twists to the overall story, they just don't affect the story too much as I expected they'd differentiate from the classic Disney animated version. This film provides much more backstory before the events of the ball, etc. Another incentive to seeing the film is that there is a short film Frozen Fever attached that takes place after the events of Frozen. This short film is very entertaining, recaptures the tone of Frozen in only a few minutes, and features another great song. Overall I would highly recommend this film if you enjoy the story of Cinderella or were interested in watching Cinderella or Frozen Fever.
