Critics Consensus

Ever After is a sweet, frothy twist on the ancient fable, led by a solid turn from star Barrymore.

Chicago Reader

Drew Barrymore plays the complicated belle of the climactic ball and develops a convincing intellectually based friendship with the prince.

Variety

The script by Susannah Grant, Rick Parks and director Andy Tennant successfully maintains the story's period trappings while introducing a heroine with modern resonance.

Time Out

Given that this is adolescent romance, never straying far from traditional stereotypes, its 'progressive' feel-good aura is mainly down to Barrymore, whose limitations are only exposed in big love scenes.

I am not sure if Hollywood will ever make a princess story like this again or The Princess Bride. Disney cannot deliver and the CGI of their films is just cringe. This movie relies on pure gorgeous costume design, heart-felt scripts (no singing thank goodness), and raw acting with a unique storyline that still honors the original, adding that the Prince is pressured to marry a royal rather than commoner. Perfect film.

This version of Cinderella has to be the most amazing one I've ever watched, and there are many of them. Cinderella is not some helpless dimwitted damsel in distress, but she is an actual intellectual being which is very hard to find in romance films nowadays. Drew Barrymore played the part so beautifully that it brought me to tears!
