Stars - Lily James, Cate Blanchett, Richard Madden, Helena Bonham Carter
Story - Really? You should know by now. They changed a few things but nothing earth shattering or even interesting. Basically the same story we have seen hundreds of times with Cinderella. The movie is beautiful and lush. It was touching and funny in all the right places.
I did miss the songs, as I really like the Disney songs as well as some of the Roger and Hammerstein ones. It would have been nice even if they just interjected one or two of the songs.
The acting was on point, especially Cate as Lady Tremaine. I just wish the story would have been told from her point of view or even the ugly step sister view. This story is so well known that it would have been a great to see it from the other side.
Lily and Richard were perfect in their roles as Cinderella and Prince Charming. Helena was great too, but wish she would have been it a bit more, and sang Bibbity Bobbity Boo, instead of just saying it a few times. The Sisters were cute and awful at the same time.
Go see it, it looks great on the big screen and the Frozen Fever short was very cute.
Snack & Bevies - Laduree Macarons and Champagne(Veuve of course)
