I was thoroughly impressed!  No one will ever be able to capture the piercing voice that the original actress gave to Lady Tremaine (Cinderella’s wicked step mother) in the 1st film.  But, other than that, this was an gain in my house.
The story line centers on Lady Tremaine stealing the Fairy Godmother’s wand, and turning back the hands of time, enabling her to complete her original mission of getting into the palace, and destroying Cinderella’s future.  From there, it just gets more interesting, sweet, and fun.

It’s a great movie for any Cinderella fan, and manages to capture a good deal from the charming the first movie brought into our (young) lives.

Cinderella lll: A Twist in Time coloring pages plot:
The Fairy Godmother drops her wand in front of Anastasia, who takes it and rushes back to the manor and shows it to her mother, Lady Tremaine. The Fairy Godmother arrives to retrieve the wand, and during a tussle, the Fairy Godmother is accidentally transformed into a stone statue. Anastasia is regretful for what has happened, but Lady Tremaine is ecstatic at the possibilities. She takes the magic wand and reverses time, going back to the moment where things started to go wrong: the Duke’s arrival at the manor with the glass slipper. Lady Tremaine rushes the process along and uses the wand to make the slipper fit Anastasia’s foot before Cinderella can make it downstairs. The Duke, seeing the slipper fit, announces that Anastasia will wed the prince, and asks for them to get ready to go to the royal palace. Cinderella rushes downstairs in what was previously “the nick of time” and is confused over the outcome. Lady Tremaine breaks Cinderella’s other slipper and tells her to forget the dance ever happened. Tremaine and her daughters then leave to the palace for the wedding preparations.

Cinderella is convinced that the Prince will remember her, so she goes to the palace in secret and sneaks in through the servant’s entrance. Elsewhere, when the Prince sees Anastasia, Tremaine uses the wand to make him forget about Cinderella completely. Jaq and Gus witness this event and tell Cinderella about the plot. Cinderella disguises herself and enters the room where her stepfamily is staying; though she manages to get the wand, Tremaine sends the palace guards to stop her before she can break the spell on the Prince. Cinderella is caught by the guards, and when the guards start to remove her from the castle, Cinderella reaches out to touch the Prince’s hand, and the connection they both feel confuses him. Tremaine orders Cinderella to be put on the next ship out of the kingdom.
