Review: with a romantic comedy plotline straight from the ages , this cinderella story does n't have a single surprise up its sleeve . 
Sentiment: negative

Review: 's a rock-solid little genre picture 
Sentiment: positive

Sentiment: negative

Review: as often it 's meandering , low on energy , and too eager to be quirky at moments when a little old-fashioned storytelling would come in handy 
Sentiment: negative
