Disney continues to "sequelize" its classic features. With smart foresight, the filmmakers choose to go with three snappy short films to comprise this 73-minute feature with the Fairy Godmother granting wishes to various characters. In the opening short, Cinderella must pursue life as queen. Several feathers are ruffled as she brings her down-home ways to the castle (bring the commoners in and open those darn curtains). In the other tales, one of Cinderella's animal pals receives a chance to see the world quite differently, and finally, Anastasia, Cinderella's formerly evil stepsister, finds love with a little help. As with the other sequels, the look of the film helps bridge the distance between the original and the sequel (here over 50 years) and it comes together seamlessly. Little ones from ages 4 to 9 should be entertained while purists may be a bit aghast. --Doug Thomas

cinderella II.......2007-06-28

i have only see this on tv, but do plan to buy it-having numbers 1 and 3 without #2 is really weird. i don't get why people think it's bad, but of course, nothing can top the oraginal; and e veryone is intitled to their own opinions. i personally think that at any age, disney has great movies.

Painfully boring.......2007-06-27

I've watched this movie on Disney Channel a couple of times and it's just an awful movie. Slow, boring, nothing interesting. The only thing I liked was the story where Anastacia falls in love.
The animation is awful, just look at those flowers in the garden. What did they use = crayons and moved them up and down 3 times?

What happened here?!.......2007-02-12

Oh Disney! You make some true jewels, and then there's Cinderella II. Plastic, short- sighted, half-hearted. My friend and I, big Disney fans, were excited to see this, but by the end were incredibly embarrassed that we had watched it, and for the people who made this thing. Dismal stories, so-so animation, and shameless exploitation of a classic with a few poorly-done silly antics scenes to brainwash the kids into liking it. Cinderella's voice sounded stiff and fake, like the actor was trying to hard, not sweet and genuine heart- of- gold like the first.

They should have cut the first two stories and put more effort into developing a decent story out of the third, about Anastasia falling in love. AND, learned from their omission in the first Cinderella and made the Prince a more 3-d character!

Come on Disney! Your adult fans should be celebrating your works, not feeling ashamed of them!

It's good, why is everyone saying it's bad?.......2007-02-11

I have to admit Cinderella 2 is not as good as the first one but good. The one thing about this movie that did anoy me is there isn't really a bad person. Prudence takes place of the stepmother but she really isn't bad just...I can't explain it. She's not bad but she has a very, not bad temper but she's kind of pushy. Gus,Jaq and Cinderella's little friends make a book. It's from Cinderella 2 that Anastaisia starts to be nicer. I've seen Cinderella 3 today it's a bit dissapionting compared to the second one and a bit more dissapointing compared to the first one. Five and a half stars for the first one five stars for the second one and four stars for the third one. It's good, why is everyone saying it's bad? Cinderella 2 is split up into three stories. One story Cinderella is trying to be a princess. In the second one Jaq or Gus I think it was Jaq got to be a human. In the third one Anastaisia fell in love with the baker. I recomend this to ages eleven and under.

Absolutely horrible.......2007-01-14

Many of the Disney sequels are quite tolerable, if not as great as the original shows. Cinderella II, however, does not even deserve to be called a sequel. The idea of a sequel to Cinderella had good potential, but in Cinderella II, a coherent storyline is replaced by three uninteresting tales; it's blaringly obvious that Disney is simply out to make more money.

Even for you die-hard fans, Cinderella II is not worth seeing. Buy something else. (Cinderella III, for instance, actually looks good.)
