A CINDERELLA STORY (Theatrical Release USA 2004)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.5|5.0 Starsììì

A Cinderella Story
turns itself into a respectable teen girly flick that resources the talents of Hilary Duff. Hilary Duff definitely needs improvement in her acting style in order to extend her career beyond this level of entertainment, but at some level her approach to interpreting this script works. This film appeals specifically to the young pre-adult audience.
