This rendition is not the worst I'm sure, but it was neither good in my opinion. SPOILER ALERT:
For me, I've always loved Cinderella rednditions, be it modern, fantasy, or an old-fashion version, each slightly different from the original, but the storylines remain the same.
This version was the worse because the writer thought it would be better to change the cute fairytale romance that everyone knows and loves into a sloppy love triangle that was so unnecessary.
Instead of the ball being thrown as an invitation to find prince charming's future bride, it was actually thrown for him to announce his engagement to a woman he's already involved with.
Once he sees Cinderella, he flirts with her in front of his fiance, she even says to him "Aren't you involved with someone else." He didn't even answer, next kisses her, she runs away, he chases her, his fiance chases him. And then he apologizes to his fiance and tries to win her back, all while trying to find "Cinderella" who happens to be his friend he forgot about that lives next door. He goes on outings with this friend and almost tries to kiss her, but can't forget "Cinderella" so he doesn't, again all this while he still has a fiance.
The fiance still thinking everything is fine because he isn't telling her different. Then at the end on his wedding day, decides not to even have the decency to tell his bride to be, that he is in love with someone else. He ditches her instead, while she's waiting at the altar, he heads over to his Cinderella. Next you have the fiance running out crying and Cinderella and Prince Charming have a happy ending. It was just stupid. Why did the writer add that sorry excuse of a love triangle I have no idea, but it ruined the series for me.
I could see if the other woman was mean to Cinderella, then it would be a "You got what you deserve", but she wasn't even a bad person, so why did she have to get hurt so many times.
Like I said, it was an unnecessary part added into the story, that wasn't even executed right. It was just there to tarnish Prince Charming's kind nature character.
