5.0 out of 5 stars "We're given a huge ball, and the door prize is YOU.", June 16, 2002

This review is from: Hey Cinderella [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The one and only Jim Henson filters the iconic tale of Cinderella through his decidedly unique vision in this charming family film. Besides the traditional poor-girl snags a charming prince plot we also have talking frogs, purple monsters, dishwashing dogs and a fairy godmother whose spells make things completely disappear more often than not.

The familar plot has sweet, pretty Cinderella meeting her Prince in the Royal Garden for the first time while she is tramping through the mud (her stepmother has ordered her to get the kitchen floor dirty before she scrubs it) and promptly falls for him, even though she thinks he's a gardener ( she doesn't recognize him from his picture on the money). The gently loopy plot roughly follows its predictable path to the end , with the highlight being the masked ball where a huge, radish-loving monster waltzes by the startled King ( who observes that next time the invitations will have to be more specific). The King, who is a Muppet, gets the best lines in the film (such as when his distressed son asks if he will get any say in his marriage and the King retorts "sure you do, just not the final say") and is a truly inspired creation, and the movie is a fine addition to the Muppet canon.

If you enjoy "Hey Cinderella" you should also check out the terrific Muppet take on "The Frog Princess", which makes a delightful companion to this cute family film.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hey Cinderella is a GREAT family movie!, November 13, 2001

This review is from: Hey Cinderella [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Often the movies kids like are annoying to adults, but not this one! I don't think that I know one person who watched this movie and did not like it. The jokes are funny, the acting is good, and who doesn't like the muppets? It is an old family favorite in my husband's family, now that we have children of our own I am sure it will become a favorite in our family as well.
