It's never easy being the new kid in school, but young Joey (Seeley) is determined to make the most of his new surroundings. If only he were to find a pretty girl who was willing to teach him the ropes around his new high school, Joey could finally stop fretting about fitting in. Perhaps Mary (Selena Gomez) is just such a girl, though this Cinderella is more likely to waltz in a new pair of dancing shoes than a pair of glass slipper. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Amber Wilkinson, Eye for Film
Although this is the first-dimension, where charcters are so wafer thin they barely cast a shadow, Gomez and Seeley have plenty of sparkle.
Edward Havens, FilmJerk.com
I guess the best thing that can be said about the direct-to-video release "Another Cinderella Story" is that it is not quite as bad as it should be.
Carrie R. Wheadon, Common Sense Media
Selena Gomez brings fresh pop fun to an old tale.

Cute enough movie. Would probably go down well with tweens and young teen girls. I have to say i preferred the first one with Hillary Duff and Jennifer Coolidge. This is more of a dance movie. The mainly younger cast is appealing enough, though I don't recognize any of them. I think I am a bit too old for this stuff, quite honestly. It is probably about time. But anyhow sweet enough film for young audience.

I'm glad that this Cinderella story is also a socioeconomic dance movie and not just a re-imagined fairy tale, but I'm also disappointed because the two genres aren't meshed into a cohesive plotline. First half is Cinderella, second half is dance. It's a shame… More
I'm glad that this Cinderella story is also a socioeconomic dance movie and not just a re-imagined fairy tale, but I'm also disappointed because the two genres aren't meshed into a cohesive plotline. First half is Cinderella, second half is dance. It's a shame that the editing barely camouflages Selena's incredibly obvious dance-double (even in some of the hip hop dances), and even more of a shame that she needed one, considering that she is easily the best actress in the Disney princess pool right now. She can move, and I would have liked to see her tackle the tango and aerials. ...And it's also a shame that I have so much of an opinion on this fluff fest.
