Quiet
I feel like I held my breathe through this film as it is really quiet. On the edge and was desperate for characters to be quiet. I so want a fairy tale ending. Lots of suspense.

Steampunk horror fairy tale of pure wonderousness
Beautiful and frightening dark fable. If you can handle horror and subtitles (or if you understand French,) you should really watch this ASAP.

"Fairy tale meets Sci-Fi is a good way to describe the book Cinder. Cinder is based off of the character Cinderella, and the book carries bits of the fairy tale throughout it’s telling. She’s a true heroine that I’ve never seen before. She just wants to live her life. She doesn’t want to be judged or mistreated anymore. I think that’s something a lot of people can understand.

With most fairy tales, there is a prince, and as we all know Cinderella meets Prince Charming. Cinder meets her prince, Prince Kai, when he seeks her out. There are obviously some changes to the original Cinderella tale, and it is infused in an original story created by Marissa Meyer. She does a really good job combining the two stories without it becoming nonsense." Read the entire review here: https://thenerdybookwormsite.wordpress.com/2017/04/29/cinder-by-marissa-meyer/
