Summary: Elmo
Review: This is my 2 year olds favorite movie..This is a Sesame Street version of Cinderella Starring Elmo ..He has two step brothers and a wicked stepmother played by Kathy Ejani..She is funny..Elmo wants to go to the ball and dance with the princes ..When his stepmother tells him he can't go because he is too dirty, His fairy Godperson comes to save the day...This has great music a lot of dancing and many famous faces..This is my favorite version of Cinderella yet!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The Story is Confusing
Review: This movie is cute... Elmo is cute... the fairy godperson steals the show... but... Elmo's dream is to dance with the princess... not to marry her... the whole story is about the princess needing to pick a husband now or her and her parents get tossed out of town... I didn't like the whole idea of the forced marriage when Elmo's dream was only to dance with her... not to marry her... and then she asks Elmo to marry her because he was a good dancer? please... what century is this? and then they have an issue because Elmo is only three and he CAN'T marry her... if these were real people this kid would be freaked... Cinderella's dream was to marry the prince... Cinderelmo's dream was to dance with her... they went too far with the forced marriage thing and made a cute movie kinda creepy...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: My daughter loves it but Najimy really annoying
Review: This video certainly accomplishes its purpose of entertaining young children. However, its cheesiness will occasionally send the adults in the house screaming from the room. Kathy Najimi's mugging stepmother is especially cloying. Oliver Platt does a nice job as the Fairy Godperson and Kerri Russell is merely adequate as the princess. Of course the Muppets are the real stars and don't disappoint.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 o'clock and all is well!
Review: Those are the words that lovable, furry, Grover Monster speaks in the morning, waking everybody up in the wonderful kingdom of Sesame, including Cinderelmo, a cute little red monster who lives with his friend, Zoe, his dog, Prince, his not-so-mean stepmother (played by Kathy Najimy) and her sons. Cinderelmo dreams of playing at the palace with the lovely Princess Charming. Soon announced, there is to be a ball at the palace and all unmarried men and monsters are invited. Soon visited by his "fairy godperson," Cinderelmo is whisked away to the ball as well. When I had first seen this of TV, I loved it. I'm a big fan of Sesame Street as it is. I only wish that Big Bird had a bigger role in it. Either way, it was a good film. Kathy Najimy was superb as the stepmother. If you have little children who have or haven't seen CINDERELMO, don't miss out on getting the video. I surely won't!

"Unmarried men and monsters, you're invited, on and all, to The Princess' Eighteenth Birthday Holiday Find A Husband Ball!"
