Disney's adaptation of the beloved fairy tale became a classic in its own right, thanks to some memorable tunes (including "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes," "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo," and the title song) and some endearingly cute comic relief. We all know the story--the wicked stepmother and stepsisters simply won't have it, this uppity Cinderella thinking she's going to a ball designed to find the handsome prince an appropriate sweetheart, but perseverance, animal buddies, and a well-timed entrance by a fairy godmother make sure things turn out all right. There are a few striking sequences of pure animation--for example, Cinderella is reflected in bubbles drifting through the air--and the design is rich and evocative throughout. It's a simple story padded here agreeably with comic business, particularly Cinderella's rodent pals (dressed up conspicuously like the dwarf sidekicks of another famous Disney heroine) and their misadventures with a wretched cat named Lucifer. There's also much harrumphing and exposition spouting by the King and the Grand Duke. It's a much simpler and more graceful work than the more frenetically paced animated films of today, which makes it simultaneously quaint and highly gratifying. --David Kronke

All Time Classic! (2008-08-25)  If you're a fan of Disney classics, this is definitely one to have. I've been collecting all of the classics that are out on DVD and, I know I've seen reviews that some people were not impressed because of the "quality", but I think if you love the movies, you can look past that. You can't expect that these movies are going to be made with "HD quality". They did a pretty good job at restoring these classics, and I'm just glad they are putting these Disney movies on DVD now because it's hard to find the VHS ones. This is a definite "must have"! It's an all time classic story, I loved it when I was young.. and I still love it 20 years later. It is not a disappointment at all and worth the price!
For All Princesses Everywhere (2008-08-24)  Everyone knows the story of Cinderella; her story is perhaps the most well-loved princess story of all time. At three years old, my young daughter is enamored of all things princess, and Cinderella is clearly the most beloved princess of all. We recently were lucky enough to take a fabulous Disney cruise. When my daughter actually got to meet Cinderella, to hug her and to talk to her, she was quite literally quivering. I truly thought she might faint from the excitement. It was her dream come true.Disney's classic masterpiece brings Cinderella's story to life, in full, rich, beautiful color, with familiar, catchy, adored songs, and gorgeous, detailed, vivid animation. This tale is endearing to princesses of all ages, young and old alike. We watch Disney's CINDERELLA several times a week in our house, and every time, my daughter watches straight through from beginning to end, completely enchanted. Heck, I am still completely enchanted, even after all these years. It is lovely, charming, sweet, and happy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for all princesses everywhere.
Love that glass slipper! (2008-08-15)  Cinderella is the perfect Disney film. Another childhood favorite mine and I am so glad all these classic fairytales are now avaiable on DVD. Cinderella is pure magic, how can you not love this timeless tale? Those wicked step-sisters and self-centered step-mother, jeez you just want to step on their animated faces! Great family film of boy meets girl, girl loses glass slipper, boy finds glass slipper, and the two live happily ever after, aww.
This Disney classic is my daughters favorite! (2008-08-13)  This product came in about a week and when my daughter opened up the package she was so happy to see one of her favorite disney movies if you got a little princess of your own shell defently love this movie!
Beautifully remastered (2008-08-07)  The color and picture on this remastered version is amazing. The ballroom scene left me breathless as Cinderella's dress sparkles on the dance floor. The bonus features are that of an average DVD, so you really buy this for the quality improvement over the old VHS.
