Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Definitely not Disney!!
Review: 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.' OR an attempt to trick somebody into buying a movie based on the quality of another Studio's work. How ironic that "Goodtimes Video" has the same titles as the Disney library. These are fourth cousins of good animated cartoons.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why are adults reviewing these films?
Review: I simply can't understand why adults are the ones to review these great Goodtimes films, which are directed to children. I wonder how many of these parents asked their children if they enjoyed the movie before they "threw them in the garbage."

I for one, defend the Goodtimes movies, they are all great for kids, Cinderella is no exception. This version is shorter than the Disney once, that already is a good thing, since we all know how children get tired from watching a movie in a short amount of time.
Anyways, Cinderella is as we all know, the story of the young girl mistreated by her stepmother and stepsisters forced to do all the chores in her own home. Luckily, things are soon going to change when the the four women are invited to a grand ball. Helped by her Fairy Godmother, Cinderella attends the celebration in the fanciest dress.

Songs in the film are lovely, from the opening "Cinderella" to a wicked song by the step sisters "A chance of a lifetime," to "Where have you been all my life?" Music is sweet and pleasent to listen to. Animation is cheap and of course, it doesn't stand up to Disney animation, however, since this a film for kids, they won't pay no attention to technical quality.

Cinderella is another perfect example of a perfect children's film, no violence, pleasent tunes and songs, a nice, entertaining story to watch, what else do you want for your kids? Also, there's the fact that these Goodtimes DVDs are so cheap, kids can practically buy them on their own. It's a shame lovely kids' films like these aren't made anymore, now, it's all violence and stupidity.

By the way, I'll try to avoid further negative reviews by saying that this is the Goodtimes version, not the Disney one.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not Disney But Entertaining!
Review: I was thrilled to discover this movie and allow my children (4 and 3 years old) to see an interpretation of a classic other than Disney's interpretation. They really loved it, and it was well worth the [price] I paid. Sure, the animation and the music aren't quite in the league of Disney, but the simplicity is part of the charm. I would certainly recommend it to other parents of small children.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beautiful version of Cinderella
Review: This classic Goodtimes version of Cinderella is charming. A treasure you must add to your "Cheap Goodtimes Treasures" Collection.
Cinderella's father has left in a business trip after he'd remarried an ugly woman who had brought her two daughers. Soon, Cinderella's step-sisters take over her bedroom, her clothes and make her do all the chores around the house. But everything is going to change when Cinderella receives a visit from her Fairy GodMother. It's worth to spend 50 minutes with your children watching this enchanting classic.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Ick Ick Ick
Review: This is one movie that isn't worth the price...Animation is HORENDOUS (especially the fat step-sister_
The voices are good but not suiting their characters, and the songs are horrible. DO NOT BUY THIS!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: If it was possible I would have given it 0 stars!!
Review: This is the worst adaptation of Cinderella that I have ever seen. I am very upset I wasted the money, I apent 9.99 on this (it also came with an awful adaptation of Snow White), the only reason I purchased it is because Cinderella (the Disney one) is not on dvd yet. We got about half way through both dvd's and threw them in the garbage!!!
