3 Ice Cubes

  Credit: WarnerBros Here at 3 Ice Cubes, we love a good Cinderella Story. Coming to DVD on July 13th (digital on June 29th),  Bailee Madison joins the franchise in 'A Cinderella Story: Starstruck.' Can you believe this is the sixth installment in the CS franchise? Our personal faves have been the original with Hilary Duff and 'A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish' with Laura Marano. It sounds like so much fun and perfect for a family night filled with s'mores and laughs. Here is the synopsis we have been given for the latest CS: "Finley Tremaine, a small-town farm girl, longs to spread her wings and soar as an aspiring performer. When a Hollywood film crew arrives in her sleepy town, she is determined to land a role in the production and capture the attention of handsome lead actor Jackson Stone. Unfortunately, a botched audition forces her to change course. Now, disguised as cowboy “Huck,” Finley finally gets her big break. But can she keep the chara...

*WARNER BROS. HOME ENTERTAINMENT PROVIDED ME WITH A FREE COPY OF THE BLU-RAY I REVIEWED IN THIS BLOG POST. THE OPINIONS I SHARE ARE MY OWN.*   Let me just say 'A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish' has to be the best addition to the 'Cinderella Story' franchise since the original with Hilary Duff. That was always one of my favorite girlie movies and was followed up by three additional sequels, now four with Christmas Wish, none directly connected to the original.

If she can just make it there, she will get the money her dad left her, which her evil stepmom constantly reminds her. Until the time comes, Kat works as an elf as well as a singing telegram but still must hand over...

'A CINDERELLA STORY: CHRISTMAS WISH'  will be available on Digital beginning October 15, and on Blu-ray™ Combo Pack and DVD on October 29. Brimming with overtones from the classic fairytale, this contemporary musical follows Katherine “Kat” Decker (Laura Marano) dreaming of becoming a famous singer-songwriter. Her reality, however, is suffocated by her conniving and cruel stepfamily and a demoralizing job working as a singing elf at billionaire Terrence Wintergarden’s Santa Land. When she starts to fall for Nick (Gregg Sulkin), the handsome new Santa at the tree lot, things begin to look up. Unfortunately, when her stepmother and stepsisters realize Kat has been invited to the prestigious Wintergarden Christmas Gala, they’ll stop at nothing to procure their own invitation and keep Kat from attending. With the help of her attentive dog, a true friend, and a little bit of holiday magic, Kat may just make it to the gala, discover the true identity of ...
