Sinopsis(1)
La historia de 'La Cenicienta' cuenta las andanzas de la joven Ella cuyo padre vuelve a casarse tras la trágica muerte de su madre. Ella no quiere disgustar a su querido padre así que acoge a su madrastra, Lady Tremaine y a sus hijas Anastasia y Drisella en la casa familiar. Pero el padre de Ella fallece repentinamente y ahora se encuentra a merced de una nueva familia celosa y cruel. Ella acaba siendo una sirvienta cubierta de cenizas a la que llaman despectivamente Cenicienta. Una situación que podría sumirla en la desesperanza pero ella está decidida a cumplir con las últimas palabras que le dijo su madre: "Deberás ser valiente y amable". Así que Cenicienta no caerá en la desesperación, ni despreciará a los que la maltratan. Además, está el apuesto extraño al que conoce en el bosque. No sabe que no se trata de un empleado más de Palacio, sino que es un príncipe, pero lo que sí sabe es que ha encontrado a su alma gemela. Parece que su destino podría cambiar cuando Palacio invita a todas las jóvenes casaderas a un gran baile donde Ella abriga la esperanza de volver a encontrarse con el encantador "Kit". Por desgracia, su madrastra le prohíbe asistir al baile y hace jirones su vestido. Pero, como ocurre en todos los buenos cuentos de hadas, surge una mano amiga en forma de una amable mendiga que, armada con una calabaza y unos ratones, cambiará para siempre la vida de Cenicienta.

Kenneth Branagh tomó una antigua historia y creó un cuento visualmente hermoso, en el que disfruté mucho. Y eso es algo que decir en mi caso, porque como uno de los pocos checos, no tengo que ver Tři oříšky pro Popelku en Navidad. Lily James es hermosa en vestidos radiantes, deslucidos y ordinarios. El príncipe me molestó desde el principio y no me di cuenta por qué, ya que ya me había molestado en Game of Thrones. De lo contrario, el elenco es de primera clase. Una experiencia familiar muy bonita.

There is only one Cinderella story and that is great. Kenneth Branagh is an extraordinary director though, so he managed to create a great fairy tale without a flaw. The best is the amazing visual part of the film, which is a joy to watch. If I should rate the various Cinderella adaptations, then this would be my first choice right after our Czech Cinderella movie.

Whatever the original animated Cinderella lacked, this live-action one has. Beautiful. One does not know what to praise first. Cunning scriptwriters who made do with a notoriously familiar story, which they developed, added to and explained with feeling a few times? The graceful and naturally beautiful Lily James? The charismatic Richard Madden, the perfect Cate Blanchett or the literally charming Helena Bonham Carter? The sensitive direction by Kenneth Branagh, who can shoot any scene in such a way that it affects people exactly as it should? Patrick Doyle and his beautiful music? The hundreds of breathtaking costumes and decorations? I really don't know. But what I do know is that I simply loved this Cinderella and I will happily watch it again and again. Particularly the ball scene is the best of all, which makes you feel like you're dancing too. Really.

Perhaps a slightly underrated project that nobody really trusted in this day and age, after almost all the juice had been squeezed out of the subject matter by filmmakers from all over the world, but one where everything is exactly in place, beautifully directed and superbly acted, especially in relation to the original Disney cartoon to which it refers. The entire beautiful fairytale structure is magically supported by a perfect soundtrack and decent visual effects used in the right measure, which, by the way, are responsible for probably the funniest sequence of all Cinderella films ever. Proper work, where humour is a bit scarce, but from the first seconds it grabs your heart and doesn't let go... 85%

If someone ever asked me what Walt Disney's classic Cinderella looks like, which I haven't seen yet, I would answer that it's just like this version by Kenneth Branagh, but in animated format, because that's how I imagine it. To many, this latest film adaptation may come across as a cheesy and infantile piece, a silly and colourfully overstuffed version of the famous fairy tale, but I really liked the look. So I was left to ride on the innocent relationship between Ella and the prince and the highly stylized visuals, which stood out most in the sets and costumes, which were a joy to look at. And I have to say that the small role for Helena Bonham Carter as the Fairy Godmother was great and incredibly funny. A gorgeous and flamboyant fairy tale feast for the eyes that was truly worth going to the cinema for.

I'm getting pretty fed up with the overabundance of various Cinderellas that spring at me every Christmas, but I decided to find out where the British and American filmmakers went wrong in order to tear them apart in my review. Well, go figure! The film may not be a miracle, but Cate Blanchett as the stepmother was casting such icy stares that I would have handed her my wallet in a heartbeat and even thanked her for it. I was genuinely surprised at how decently entertained I was by a fairy tale for which I had such low expectations.

I keep wondering if it makes sense to constantly remake fairy tales or to make them again. This film doesn't have much added value. It's as nice as you'd expect, with moments you anticipate - of course, if you're familiar with the American version of Cinderella. Kenneth Branagh is a confident and excellent director, and there are beautiful scenes, but it's still the same old fairy tale. Nice, sweet, but nothing new.
