"You might imagine her father's death by earthquake is a terrible trial, but, this being a romantic teen comedy, the trauma is fleeting."
PopMatters
Cynthia Fuchs
2.5/4
"Does justice to its well-known source material while putting a pleasant spin on it. It's better than one may be lead to expect, which is perhaps the best compliment of all."

0/4
"If some films are made to order, the market-researched
A Cinderella Story
has the stretch marks to prove it."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
D+
"Airy and blithely romantic at first, but very quickly descends into unintentional absurdity and stays there.... It's pre-fab 'fun' at its most mirthless."

"A bibbidy- bobbidy- bomb... more pumpkin than gilded coach, more smelly sneaker than glass slipper."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
1/5
"A Cinderella Story misfires as a comedy and offers no fresh twists or clever turns on this ancient fairy tale."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
4/10
"Rather than anything original or humorous or, heaven forbid, romantic developing from this fable, we get only tired clichés and worn-out stereotypes."

John J. Puccio
"People who wear glass slippers shouldn't go around kicking the crap out of fairytales."

"Chad Michael Murray could be the next Johnny Depp, or he could be the next Luke Perry – only time will tell."

Larry Carroll
B+
"The efforts to find Cinderella and struggles with Fiona take longer than they should, but there is an old-fashioned happily ever after ending for everyone who deserves one. "
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
0.5/5
"At worst, it's an insult even to the intelligence of 12-year olds."
Film Threat
Pete Vonder Haar
"A sloppy, idiotic mess that demonstrates nothing but contempt for anyone deluded enough to actually watch it."
Critic Doctor
Peter Sobczynski
2/5
"With a few hilarious exceptions, the jokes are bland and unfunny, and the fairy tale reinventions aren't creative or witty enough."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
4/10
"In this awkward, updated fairy tale, the shallow, bland script drowns in so many cliches that it becomes tedious, except for the most devoted "Lizzie McGuire" fans."
