A CINDERELLA STORY: ONCE UPON A SONG (Television Release USA 2011)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.3|5.0 Starsììì

A Cinderella Story: Once upon a Song promotes the singing talent of Lucy Hale and Freddie Stroma. These two performers are outstanding. If more work would have been put into a quality script for these two performers, this film, due to their singing talent, could have been a blockbuster. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen and the movie fails miserably. The film leaves the impression that its only purpose was promotion of these two singers rather than producing a bona fide movie for entertainment.
