Summary: A charming surprise
Review: Hey, what can I say? I'm a Disney fanatic. The meaning of life isn't revealed in this 75 minute film, but neither is it a clunker. The movie has a mixture of old favorites and new charmers that is bound to enchant younger children and at least leave adults with a smile and a head shake.

True, the popular music is very out of place, but the sweet storyline of all three shorts is sure to catch children in the spell of Disney's classic all over again.

Summary: Cinderella II: Bibidi Bobidi Bad!
Review: Disney had 52 yrs to make a sequel and this is the best they could do? My daughter loves the original. She watched it for the first time a few months ago and we must have seen it at least 9 or 10 times since. So now to the sequel. After about 20 minutes my daugher said come on daddy lets play. The animators must be the same one's that worked on Speed Racer, and the music just doesn't fit. On the plus side my daughter likes the picture on the cover. Unfortunately I promised my daughter I would buy this video so what could I do? If you haven't made the same mistake rent it first. Maybe they can cryogenically freeze this sequel with the hopes that some day in the future they can find a cure for it. I'm sure that's what Uncle Walt would've wanted.

Summary: DREAMS BECOME PATHETIC
Review: I am a huge Disney fan, a true child inside as you may say. Cinderella is one of my favorite movies ever so I was looking forward to rent this sequel because the preview looked great!
But I was so disappointed at the poor quality of the animations, that looked more like a WB cartoon show than a professional, classic blockbuster. The music accompanying it sounded more like a silly attempt to improve the flick. The story was cheesy and childish (I know it's a kids movie but the appeal of great Disney movies attract adults as well) and I felt mocked and underestimated as a viewer.
Do you know the cute funny things that are in Disney cartoons that make you smile? (it's hard to describe it another way). Well, there was none of that in Cinderella II which leads me to believe that this film was created only to make a few extra bucks and not enough time was put into it.
And simply and swiftly, the person I was watching the movie with said: "You can take Cinderella out of the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out of Cinderella." (that's the point of the sequel)
If you are going to make a sequel of a huge movie like Cinderella you must live up to expectations, not fail miserably! Thank goodness I only rented it!...

Summary: Another disappointing sequel
Review: I can't help but wonder who Disney hires to write their sequels. One would think that, of all Disney Classics, Cinderella would deserve a much better sequel. I was very disappointed, as was my 3 year old daughter. We waited and waited for this movie and it was a very big let down. Disney really needs some help! Don't waste your money!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Be careful of misleading packaging...
Review: The moveie was fine. Not as good as the original, but making a follow up to a classic will not live up expectations not matter how good it is. All three of my kids loved it. However, I bought the DVD instead of the VHS because of the inclusion of the "Cinderella's Doll House game", which is ...gotcha... a preview version of the game. No where on the packaging does it say this. I was pretty disapointed....

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good for little ones
Review: My 4 year old daughter LOVED this movie. She watched it from beginning to end and did not lose interest once. It was not too scary as some Disney films are. While others have been disappointed, I don't think this film is for adults, it is for KIDS, and mine loved it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Shame on Disney!
Review: Let's put it this way: My three year old has watched the original Cinderella about a thousand times. My three year old asked me to turn off Cinderella II half way through -- and told me to get my money back! Does no one at Disney have any imagination left at all?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: not a good seqaul
Review: I was looking foward to seeing this because the Lady and The Tramp and Little Mermaid sequals were not that bad. This one is poor the anamation is flat the story is bad and I dont think a child would watch this for more then 10 minutes. I regert buying this and hope the HunchBack seqaul next month is better or disney may not sell me the upcoming tarzan and 101 dalmations seqeuls that are coming out soon.The bonus feaures are lousy too a 6 minute music featurette, a four minute brooke allsion music video and a enchanted castle tabletop game which is the only the thing that elvates this dvd to 2 stars. Rent this first I am not hard to please with movies but I feel jeeped here so rent and then decide if it is something you want to own.

Summary: Breathtakingly bad.....
Review: This video definitely does not live up to the tremendous amount of hype. Though I did not expect it to be as well-done as the original, I had hoped that the animation quality would be at least as good as other Disney sequels (Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, etc.). The quality may be compared to modern Saturday morning cartoons. All the animation staff seem to be Japanese--what's the deal with that--do they come cheaper? The promised new songs were nothing more than background music--no new musical productions here. My four year old seems to like it okay, but I think it's because she loves the characters so much and I feel she will quickly tire of it. I just feel that Disney wanted to make a quick buck off the current "Princess" craze and lowered their normally high standards to do so.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Cinderella 2 - Rent it, don't buy it
Review: I had ordered Cinderella 2 for my 2 year old daughter who LOVES Cinderella. It was really not worth the money. I thought it was going to be a complete story - but it was several vignettes instead! I did enjoy the vignette about Anastasia (one of the stepsisters) and her "falling in love"
