This was surprisingly good for a hallmark movie. Do not be fooled by the poster and the summary, this isn't your typical indentured servant girl with a teenage romance. Sure some of the dialogue is corny but what do you expect? It's a Hallmark movie.What I really appreciate though, is the fact that they took time to develop the element of friendship between Indy and Bryant. He wasn't just her prince, he was also her fairy godmother. Most Cinderella adaptations I've watched just focused on her hardships and her romance at the big nice ball, but this movie delivered a more fleshed out prince in the form of Bryant. In particular, I really liked how they highlighted the difference between him and Max, and I enjoyed looking out for Indy's reactions to both of them. Cinderella's character was true to the original. You find out how kind and patient she is through her actions in the movie. Obviously, the acting could have been better but it didn't bother me that much.The surprising thing was they actually touched on the abuse in Cinderella and treated it very seriously in this modern retelling e.g. the signs, the different types, the process of handling it, so if you're not comfortable with that sort of thing and want more of a fairytale romance, then I suggest you watch another adaptation. But personally, I thought it was handled sensibly.Overall, I think it's nice that they've managed to make a heartwarming movie about family and friendship, and some romance to finish things off. The beginning is quite corny but if you stick around, it gets better.

It was incredibly cheesy. Very cheesy. But the kind of cheesy that could be enjoyed as a casual mother-daughter date, ladies night, or just on your own. It was clean, engaging, and appropriate for children audiences. Some concepts might be hard for young children to understand (i.e. emotional abuse from the "wicked step-mother"), but overall is a great film.

Like come on, first the crying was so pathetic and oh my god i can't even explain how bad it was.
and what bothered me so much is the title Not Cinderella's Type ?
come on i thought it was something really different from the typical Cinderella bornig movies. spice it up a little bit.

This was truly cringe inducing, from the first poorly written and not well performed cliche line to the last.
But I also love really bad corny happy ending movies, which this was.
This was right on the line for me, almost too bad to finish, which means if you dislike cheesy teen movies, you will hate this one.
