Sam panics when Mr. Anonymous turns out to be the coolest guy on campus. Can he love a girl who isn't part of the in crowd? Can fairy tales come true?

Description of A Cinderella Story (Full Screen Edition):
If you are one of Hilary Duff's most ardent pre-teen fans, chances are you'll find something to enjoy in A Cinderella Story, but everyone else should proceed with caution. It's an updated fairy tale for the age of instant messaging, which is how Sam (Duff) develops a crush on Austin (Chad Michael Murray) before realizing that this Tennyson-quoting poet-at-heart is actually her San Fernando Valley high school's star quarterback and most desirable hunk. In a role that squanders her proven comedic gifts, Jennifer Coolidge is Sam's Botox-injected evil stepmother, and lame attempts at comedy turn her dimwitted stepsisters into buffoons, like many of the other cast members who struggle to find anything funny in the screenplay. So we're left with the bland, blonde charms of Hilary Duff, who fared better in The Lizzie McGuire Movie, but manages to salvage her mainstream appeal in a comedy for which "cute" is not necessarily a compliment. --Jeff Shannon
A Cinderella Story (Full Screen Edition) Reviews:
Another Pretty Good Chick Flick!!! 
2008-09-01 - As I've mentioned before, I watch these types of movies on rare occasions. A Cinderella Story was pretty good! Hilary Duff is extremely sexy! Duff plays Sam, who has mean step-sisters and mean step mom. She has been texting Austin Ames. When they meet at a HALLOWEEN dance party, Sam has to hurry and get back to her step mother's diner before she finds out that Sam left. After the dance, Austin goes on a spree to find out who dressed as Cinderella at the dance. If you like Hilary Duff, you'll love A CINDERELLA STORY!!!!
cinderella story

Cinderella Story
2007-06-29 - An entertaining story for Hillary Duff fans...or not. Purchased as a gift for twin 10 year old girls who enjoyed the movie.
The Story of The Cinderella
2007-06-20 - I first watched this movie when it came into theatres, and I actually talked my friends into watching this instead of another movie, which was a hit thriller.
The main reason why I chose this over the other movie was not because of the cast members. Though i admit that I admire the beautiful Miss Hilary Duff and Mr Chad michael Murray as many teenagers do out there(hey! I'm only sixteen myself!), I watched the movie because I was attracted by the story.
Cinderella is one of my favourite fairytales since I was a kid, and I am really glad that it's made into a comedy telling the story of a girl. A Cinderella Story illustrates many aspects of lives of teenagers; family, school, friends, part-time job... and it's shouting out to every teenager out there: never give up. Cling onto your dreams. Eventually, everything will be alright.
Fairytales are like dreams of every person out there, no matter you are a kid or you are an adult. Many say that they are like perfections that don't exist. Well maybe they don't. But if you really look and you really try to see, they are there, waiting for you to explore.
One of my faves!!!!!!!!!!!
