Though the writing was good enough to keep me going and the characters were charming-ish, I came out of the experience feeling blasé and, well, bored. If by “mature” they mean “angst-y” then, sure, it’s mature, but the approach does nothing for the story, nor does it add anything interesting that we are not already familiar with when it comes to ye’ ole Cinderella.
