Editorial Review: If you are one of Hilary Duff's most ardent pre-teen fans, chances are you'll find something to enjoy in A Cinderella Story, but everyone else should proceed with caution. It's an updated fairy tale for the age of instant messaging, which is how Sam (Duff) develops a crush on Austin (Chad Michael Murray) before realizing that this Tennyson-quoting poet-at-heart is actually her San Fernando Valley high school's star quarterback and most desirable hunk. In a role that squanders her proven comedic gifts, Jennifer Coolidge is Sam's Botox-injected evil stepmother, and lame attempts at comedy turn her dimwitted stepsisters into buffoons, like many of the other cast members who struggle to find anything funny in the screenplay. So we're left with the bland, blonde charms of Hilary Duff, who fared better in The Lizzie McGuire Movie, but manages to salvage her mainstream appeal in a comedy for which "cute" is not necessarily a compliment. --Jeff Shannon
Meet high school student Sam (Hilary Duff), who scrubs floors at a diner, copes with her wicked stepmother and stepsisters, and all the while dreams of Princeton (the perfect spot for a would-be princess to find a prince). But maybe she has a Prince Charming already: her anonymous e-mail buddy (Chad Michael Murray), who arranges to meet her at the Halloween dance. Sam panics when Mr. Anonymous turns out to be the coolest guy on campus. Can he love a girl who isn't part of the in crowd? Can fairy tales come true? Sure - but only if Sam stands up for herself and turns her dreams into reality. DVD Features: Additional Scenes Audio Commentary:Hilary Duff and other castmembers Challenges:Find Your Prince/Princess Challenge: See video clips and answer questions to see who your true love is. Featurette:Cinderella Couture: The Making of a Fashionably Modern Fairytale: A featurette on the costumes and makeup that at first "made under" and later made over Hillary Duff.

This is a "survival story" of a young girl named Samantha Montgomery, a.k.a. Diner Girl (Hilary Duff).

Rating: - Another Pretty Good Chick Flick!!!
As I've mentioned before, I watch these types of movies on rare occasions. A Cinderella Story was pretty good! Hilary Duff is extremely sexy! Duff plays Sam, who has mean step-sisters and mean step mom. She has been texting Austin Ames. When they meet at a HALLOWEEN dance party, Sam has to hurry and get back to her step mother's diner before she finds out that Sam left. After the dance, Austin goes on a spree to find out who dressed as Cinderella at the dance. If you like Hilary Duff, you'll love ... Read More

Rating: - The Story of The Cinderella
I first watched this movie when it came into theatres, and I actually talked my friends into watching this instead of another movie, which was a hit thriller.
The main reason why I chose this over the other movie was not because of the cast members. Though i admit that I admire the beautiful Miss Hilary Duff and Mr Chad michael Murray as many teenagers do out there(hey! I'm only sixteen myself!), I watched the movie because I was attracted by the story.
