Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: More is not necessarily better. A glitzy Hollywood cast and a big budget did not improve the wonderful 1957 teleplay (or its equally charming 1964 remake) upon which this version is based. This is partly because Brandy, cast in the title role, cannot act. Not helping matters are Whoopi Goldberg as the prince's mother and Jason Alexander as his valet. Their shtick wears thin very quickly. However, Paolo Montalban is charismatic as the prince, and Whitney Houston plays a fairy godmother with pizzazz. The production cost millions, and is certainly lavish, but the whole affair feels forced and overdone, reminding one of a prom queen wearing too much makeup. It does deserve credit for a multi-ethnic cast, the addition of two new songs and a hip attitude. However, the 1964 version (the original was not taped) is much sweeter and more romantic. Originally released as Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella. --Rochelle O'Gorman

I love this musical version of Cinderella no matter who is performing, but this one is perfection. I appreciate the multicultural, multiracial casting and the strong voices of all of the performers. it is the classic tale, but with a spin that makes it more contemporary and interesting.

Cinderella is one of my favorites fairy tale and I really enjoyed this version of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella. It is an entertaining, colorful, comtemporary version of a classic tale and classic Rodgers & Hammerstein music. It's one of those remakes where either you love it or you hate it and I love it.

I have purchased this movie three times in my lifetime, my third one being on DVD, I dissagree strongly with the review of the the 1997 remake of cinderella, This remake truely blew it out the park. This version of cinderella made it my favorite movie ever which I can watch over and over again with out getting bored, and for me to be a straight male thats quite awkward, but I look forward to sitting down and watching this wonderful Movie.

I absolutely love this version of the classic Rodger's and Hammerstein's classic musical. All of the perfomers do a magnificent job, and the 3 added songs add a perfect touch.
The producers tried a little too hard to be "color blind" (black+white= asian, really???) but they meant well.
Buy this DVD while it's still available. Your kids will love it!!
