Cinderella 2015

Disney's 2015 live action version of the classic fairy tale, Cinderella, that they already animated in 1950 has a couple of flaws but there are just as many wonderful things about it. Being directed by Kenneth Branagh is one of the strongest things the film has due to Branagh's reputation as a Shakespearean director. This helps him make a beautiful looking film that harkens back to the same time period as the film takes place in. Who best to play the title character's stepmother who starts out a little kind but then starts to show her roots over time than Cate Blanchett, an actress who can pull off any role given. One negative is that Cinderella is a bit bland at times and hard to relate to, but with Lily James great performance she still struggles and works hard to get where she goes to. Over all: 92%
Top list so far:
1. Kingsman: The Secret Service
2. Cinderella 2015
3. The DUFF
4. Project Almanac
5. Chappie
6. Strange Magic
