Task: Sentiment Analysis
Input (English): as fairy tales go , cinderella has to be one of the most famous .
almost everyone knows it , well at least in north america .
so it is natural that someone will try to make a movie out of it .
it has been done before with varying results .
this version of the story is both similar to the original and different at the same time .
the basic story remains unchanged but , one thing that seems to vanish with this version , and that is all the fantastical elements of the story .
there is no fairy god mother or anything even remotely of that nature .
after the fantastical elements are stripped away what is left is a realistic believable rendition of the cinderella story and an interesting love story at the least . .
unlike in the fairy tale , the prince plays a much larger part than just that of the masked ball at the end .
the ? prince ' , who happens to be the crown prince to the throne of france , meets ' cinderella ' , known as danielle , on a few occasions , most coincidentally
and he becomes smitten with her .
although this seems to be a far cry from the traditional story it allows for the main plot to proceed with enough room for some imaginative story telling . .
the story takes place in a renaissance setting ; in france , with leonardo da vinci providing some comic relief on more than one occasion .
this addition of leonardo da vinci , was quite successful in that it added some color to the movie , since some of the roles are a bit stereotypical .
for example the role that was scripted for the prince leaves a few things to be desired .
for instance the character seems to be a bit too unstable and fickle , a crown prince should not be anything remotely like that . especially since he is portrayed to be in his mid twenties at the least and almost ready to take the throne .
the characters of danielle ( cinderella ) played by drew barrymore , and that of the evil step mother , played by anjelica huston , are well developed and well played by the two women .
although the part of danielle is a bit stretched it is not too unlikely and not totally unbelievable .
the nuances of the character are brought out well by drew barrymore and from watching the movie it seems like she had fun making the movie .
as a contrast the part of the evil step mother is clearly seen from the very beginning and is almost clique .
but , anjelica huston seems to add a certain flair to the role that makes it suit the movie nearly perfectly .
the actual story is fairly predictable since it is after all the basic story of cinderella , but there are more than enough twists in how the story is told to make it interesting and enjoyable .
the acting is of high caliber and seems deserved of praise .
all in all this movie takes you back into history , into a seemingly magical fairy land .
but , do n't get me wrong
there is nothing but reality , it is just refreshing to watch a movie that is not based in a familiar setting with everyday familiar things happening .
so although the story is basically familiar the world it is set in is not , and that adds a dimension to the film which in this humble reviewers opinion makes it worth seeing
Output (English): P
