Cinderella

Doc's Ranking: 17/51
Karo's Ranking: 26/49

A generic fairy tale with some very good songs ('Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo' especially). The mice were great, and their antics keep the movie from getting boring (which it would have gotten without them). The villain is excellent, but sadly, we are once again stuck with a stock Prince/Princess with little originality.
A decent enough movie, but generally extremely overrated.


Best Character: Lady Tremaine

This vile woman simply exudes evil. Not satisfied with making her stepdaughter her slave, she decides to employ psychological torture against Cinderella by telling her she can got to the ball, then crushing her hopes like a little bug. A very effective villain.


Worst Character: Cinderella

This 'honor' would have gone to Prince Charming, but I felt he barely could be even called a character, as he has only one line (and little screentime) in the movie.
Although Cinderella does have a little more personality then your standard classic Disney heroine, one will come the realization at the end of the movie that despite being the main character, she hasn't done a single thing of significance in the entire movie, other then to do chores and sing. The mice make her dress, the mice save her from Lady Tremaine, everything required for the ball was given to her by the Fairy Godmother, etc. The movie might as well be about a department store mannequin.
