1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Tiffany Giardina's "Hurry Up And Save Me" may be one of the more memorable things to come out of the film.
2* FridgeBrilliance: In the fairy tale, Cinderella's salvation comes from dancing at a ball, so it makes perfect sense to have Mary be a dancer. Likewise, the climax at the dance competition.
3* QuestionableCasting: The decision to avert DawsonCasting for Mary while playing it straight with everyone else led to some criticism, since it meant that, no matter how much the script claimed they were around the same age, the audience saw a then 15-year-old falling in love with and dating a boy [[PaedoHunt ten years her senior]].
4* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: It did much better with critics than ''Film/ACinderellaStory'', and ranked as January 2009's No. 1 TV film when it aired on Creator/ABCFamily. It also won the 2010 Writers Guild of America Award for Children's script-long form or special, which says a lot considering the first film was nominated for a Razzie. The fact that another sequel was made (that also has a musical theme, and stars Creator/LucyHale, who is known for looking like Selena) supports this.
5* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Mary's TheGirlWhoFitsThisSlipper subplot involves her Zune music player, which was discontinued in 2011 (a little over half a decade after the movie's release). The description for the film for some cable and streaming services even misidentifies it as an iPod.
6* TheWoobie: Admit it, you wanted to hug Mary at least once during this movie. The poor girl just can't catch a break. Seriously, the way her so called family treats her crosses into abusive territory.
