Cinderella and the Prince are destined to be together, but have you ever wondered what would have happened if the glass slipper that was left behind after the royal ball fit someone other than Cinderella? Cinderella's Stepmother and Stepsisters Anastasia and Drisella change history when Anastasia steals the Fairy Godmother's magic wand and her mother uses it to turn back time and then cast a spell on the glass slipper so that it will fit on Anastasia's foot. The Prince immediately realizes that something is amiss, but a quick zap from the magic wand convinces him that Anastasia is his rightful bride-to-be and it looks like nothing that Cinderella or her mouse friends Jaq and Gus can do will set things right. Two questions remain: what will become of Cinderella and can Anastasia ever find true happiness by marrying someone who will never love her for who she really is? This 74-minute animated tale follows the classic Cinderella and its sequel Cinderella II--Dreams Come True and features nice animation, new conflicts between familiar secondary characters like the evil cat Lucifer and mouse friends Jaq and Gus, lots of new songs, and a suspenseful story line. (Ages 3 to 9) --Tami Horiuchi

Suprisingly enjoyable - Rating: 4/5
This was just an addition to my Disney DVD collection for the sake they were putting it in the vault. I didnt think I would like it because I didnt like the second Cinderella but I actually enjoyed the story line some-what!

Cinderella III - A Twist in Time - Rating: 4/5
This was a really good sequel. I bought it because I heard it was going back into the Disney vault. The characters were not wooden. At least the Prince has something to do this time.Cinderella and her animal friends use their ingenuity to set things back right. The stepmother and stepsisters are their deliciously evil selves. This film was almost as good as the original. It is a fun film and thoroughly enjoyable. So, go ahead an enjoy it.
better than the original Cinderella! - Rating: 4/5
i read the reviews before i bought this movie, and i bought it because most people seemed to like it. my daughters and i just watched it, and i have to say that i was impressed. i actually like it better than the original! i liked Cinderella's more active role. that was my biggest complaint about the original--i never did care for the whole wishy-washy, boo-hoo attitude she had!
i would recommend this movie to anyone who likes disney princess movies.
Disney's Best Animated Effort in a Long Time.. - Rating: 4/5
I know alot of people hate the "sequel" Disney movies simply because they feel their creation "desecrates" the memories of the originals. Ah but do remember, these were never "original" Disney properties to begin with, they were softer retellings of fairy tales or other classic novels.
Cinderella III is an entertaining movie. It's animation is quite fluid, with a few mistakes here and there, it is still a bright, vibrant movie with consistent character designs. The storyline is an "alternative" storyboard, where the characters are forced back in time and down different paths for the sake of the storyboard. This makes things interesting, and even the comedic bits are either slapstick, or subtle intelligent and amusing.
The bottom line is that this is one of the best things Disney has released in recent years... their non-Pixar CG movies have been terrible ("Chicken Little" almost unwatchable it was so bad) and not much else has come from the studio.
Anyone that loves fairy tales, Cinderella, alternate timelines (a popular device in Sci Fi and fantasy) etc will enjoy this movie. My daughter is three and this is by far her favorite film right now (yes, even over "classics" like "Cinderella One" as she calls it, etc).
