Kay Cannon might have felt , Just bringing in a new star crew doesn't make an old fairy tale new, rather giving it a tangy twist will make it new. Obvious many times and subtly too many times the movie talks about the changing ( rather changed) gender roles, sexuality, equality, women entrepreneurship and of course love. Enjoyed watching it. Couldnt believe it was Cinderella's debut. Fun watching Brosnan. His conversation with prince Robert is worth rewinding. Gwen is a creative leadership awaiting right chance. Good watch.
