Another Cinderella Story

Director: Damon Santostefano Damon Santostefano

Overview

Prepare for plenty of music, lots of dancing, and even a little magic in this reworking of the Cinderella legend featuring High School Musical star Drew Seeley as a young Prince Charming in search of the ideal girl. It's never easy being the new kid in school, but young Joey (Seeley) is determined to make the most of his new surroundings. If only he were to find a pretty girl who was willing to teach him the ropes around his new high school, Joey could finally stop fretting about fitting in. Perhaps Mary (Selena Gomez) is just such a girl, though this Cinderella is more likely to waltz in a new pair of dancing shoes than a pair of glass slipper.

Editorial Reviews

Another Cinderella Story would be a pretty lame affair without its talented cast. Created using the Disney Channel's patented cookie cutter formula, the screenplay is so predictable that one can watch the film with the sound off and not really miss anything important plotwise. Said plot also, of course, features a number of credibility-stretching ingredients -- but then, so does the original Cinderella tale, so perhaps it's not fair to complain about that in this version. The music and dancing is also exactly what one would expect: trendy, friendly, unchallenging pop songs and generic dancing that emphasizes lots of energy. Of course, with Selena Gomez and Drew Seeley on hand as the Cinderella character and her prince, the material comes across as much more entertaining than it should. And when the riotously amusing Jane Lynch is added into the mix, one surprisingly finds oneself laughing out loud. None of the flaws will matter to its target audience, anyway; but older viewers can be thankful for the fine cast that makes it much more bearable than it should be.
