i saw this 2 weeks ago, it was excellent & would happily recommend to anyone, enjoyed by adults & children alike.

[spoiler]There was even a little cheer at the inevitable happy ending[/spoiler]

ps could you have one of your main characters named "Lucifer" these days ?

pps if you miss out, this movie is available on youtube in it's entirety...good quality / doubtful legality.

I really enjoyed this at Wimbledon this morning (despite some noisy crisp wrappers, chatter & people in front of me constantly checking their phones!!). I love Disney films & this is one I've never seen. Thoroughly enjoyed it :)

I would happily watch this again and would even p*y!

I too loved seeing Cinderella again and saw so many things in it I didn't remember anymore (or perhaps didn't catch up on when watching the film as a little kid). I also thought the animation looked excellent for such an old film (much better than on the VHS I'd worn out) and worked really well on the huge Sky screen.

9/10

However, the screening at the O2 really pissed me off today. First of all the lights were on for the duration of the film which was highly disruptive on many levels (couldn't focus on the screen like normally in cinema, children became even more restless, etc).

Then upon exiting the theatre I was looking for a Sky rep to mention this and a cinema staff member said they were in the office and asked us to wait. Fair enough. We waited about 10 minutes and then a Disney rep came out (I guess Sky had left?) with her arms full of goodie bags which was a very nice surprise. However, she wouldn't give my +1 and I one as we didn't have a small kid with us wich to be frank felt a bit discriminative, particularly considering the fact that we were one of the last people left (we'd gone to the toilets and there had been a long queue plus we waited for the rep to tell her about the lights issue) and she had her arms full, so it wasn't like they were running out... I was in the middle of a sentence to her to say it'd be for my siblings but she left before I could even finish which was extremely rude and left a bad taste in our mouth.

Wasn't the voice of the stepmother the same as Maleficent in Sleeping Beauty?
