Pros: Drew Barrymore; romantic; good cinematography; fresh character variations Cons: Love team lacked chemistry; ending leaves you hanging
As you might already know by now that I'm a big fan of Drew Barrymore, so it comes as no surprise if I have Ever After as part of my collection. I've watched this film on the big screen and must have watched it on dvd for an unaccountable number...
Pros: fairy tale story, excellent acting, beautiful backdrop Cons: mean and devious characters
Being a fan of Drew Barrymore, I decided to rent a few of her movies from Netflix one afternoon last week. Two weekends past brought a huge storm to our area and our satellite could not acquire its signal...so I whipped out Ever After, brewed...
Pros: A timeless tale with a few twists Cons: Slow at times
Ever After is a delightful tale based on the well-loved story of Cinderella. Now, for the 1 person out there that's never heard of Cinderella, let me give you the basis of the movie....
Once upon a time .
Isnt that the way all fairy tales begin? Dreams are recounted and stories retold, handing down legends and sometimes expanding on them.
Pros: ...harmless retread of Cinderella, a story that's always worth telling Cons: Drew Barrymore's acting, the complete lack of joy in the movie
To make it entirely clear how biased this review is—I never wanted to see “Ever After.” I don’t particularly like Drew Barrymore…in fact, the only movie I really liked her in was “The Wedding Singer.” And “E.T.” So it’s been a while. I picked up this...
Pros: Certainly a more realistic telling of this fairy tale. Cons: Probably geared more towards teens than adults.
Ever After: A Cinderella Story is a revisionist update of the classic Grimm Brothers fairy tale of Cinderella, and is much more interesting and entertaining than it probably would've been otherwise (then again, I haven't actually read the story, or seen...
Pros: new take on classic story Cons: may be enjoyed more by women
This unique adaptation of Cinderella presents the tale in such a way that we are meant to believe it actually happened. There is no fairy godmother, no coach formerly known as pumpkin, no grand search for an unknown shoeless princess. Everything in this...
Pros: Drew Barrymore at her finest; classic story retold Cons: could be classified as a chick flick
Ever After: A Cinderella Story is the classic story of Cinderella set in the the eighteenth or nineteenth century France. The cast consists of the usual characters:
Pros: Angelica Houston's performance Cons: Pointless additions to the Cinderella Story
Ever After is a difficult review for me to write. I liked the movie, but there are many aspects of it that as a critic, I didn’t like. Watching the movie I never fail to be touched and somewhat moved by the characters and story, but I also never fail...
Pros: great acting, appealing story, not too mushy Cons: will disappoint people expecting Disney-esque entertainment
This is the story of Cinderella. No, not the Disney version, nor the Grimm version... The movie begins with an elderly noblewoman meeting with Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm - better known as the Brothers Grimm - to discuss their story of "the little cinder ...
Pros: Excellent movie, Drew is breathtaking. Cons: The DVD has no special features.
The Plot Well, we have an elderly woman being interviewed by the Grimm brothers about the legend of Cinderella. She explains that Cinderella was indeed a real living person, but she is the keeper of this fascinating tale. This Cinderella ...
Pros: gorgeous setting, lovely music Cons: the odd looks you get when admitting that you enjoy this movie
It's hot. It's humid, which makes it feel even hotter. My roses are
wilting, but I don't care. I'm not going outside to water them, or do
much of anything else until the weather changes.It's that time again-
the part of summer that...
Pros: Wonderful Story Telling, great characters Cons: none
