Prince and Me

Pros: Great sets, costumes, along with a credible story and acting.
Cons: It's a fairy tale. Were you expecting Princess Di perhaps?

It's been the stuff of fairy tales for centuries -- a commoner girl is discovered by a prince who sees her true qualities, and they are swept off by both love and happily ever after. It's a fine idea when you're young, and cynicism hasn't set in yet, but ...

Pros: What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger….
Cons: Length, plot, lack of chemistry….

I wanted to like this movie, really I did. I typically like girly movies although they’re not my favorite. One of the reasons I rarely write movie reviews is just because I’m so darn easy to please! There’s hardly ever a movie that I really, really, ...

Pros: Julia Stiles and Luke Mably
Cons: I'm too old to feel all gushy inside...right?

I went to see the sneak preview of The Prince and Me. When I thought about reviewing it here though, I was torn because logically, it didn't make sense for me to praise it. That's when the conversation began with my inner teenage ...

Pros: performances, cinematography, sweetness
Cons: derivative premise, confused emotional goals, nothing at stake

The Prince and Me is a hybrid of sorts. Part Princess Diaries 6, part romantic comedy - it's a tale where a bird meets a fish - and we laugh at their attempt to find suitable lodgings. Unfortunately, these two genres come with expectations that cancel ...

Pros: cast, sweet story
Cons: prince's transition almost unrealistically quick

I am a sucker for sappy movies. I’ll just say that up front. Thought-provoking is fine, but movies that tug at my heart strings are more likely to win me over completely. So when my mom and I went looking for a couple movies to rent recently, my eyes ...

Pros: beautiful scenery, costumes, great cast
Cons: trite script full of inconsistencies and errors

I saw The Prince and Me at a preview showing a week before its official release. I was very excited to see this movie based on the previews, but unfortunately I cannot say the same thing after having seen the movie. I think that I am definitely getting ...

Pros: Entertaining, feel-good fairytale romance
Cons: Cliche-filled, silly, implausible, uneven pacing

The Prince & Me is silly, implausible, and has uneven pacing, but it still managed to entertain me and make me feel good after a stressful day. Plot Summary Edvard (Luke Mably) is a spoiled brat, and also the Prince of Denmark. ...

Pros: Two of the most likeable characters to grace an onscreen romance in quite some time
Cons: Cliched, perhaps, but not aggravatingly so...after all, it IS a Hollywood romance movie

Okay. Confession time, here. I'm a guy and I enjoy feel-good romance movies like this one. I like fairy tales with happy endings. I like fairy tales with semi-happy endings. I can even, once in a while, get into fairy tales with not-so-happy ...

Pros: Malby and Miller; chemistry b/t the leads; funny at times
Cons: story/plot (not believable); corny at times

The target audience ought to go bonkers over this one, although they have probably seen it a zillion times before. What is so shocking about "The Prince & Me" is that it is filled with so many clichés that the audience could swear they have seen it ...

Pros: Julia Stiles tries her best
Cons: Barbie-doll-level romance and plotting

Look very closely at the ad poster for The Prince & Me. In the foreground, you will see Julia Stiles looking very much like a once-promising actress who has chosen compromise as a career path. Sadly, she looks the same way all through the movie. ...

Pros: There aren't any.
Cons: Lengthy, boring, implausible; WI is inaccurately portrayed.

WARNING: SPOILERS. What a horrible movie, with absolutely no redeeming qualities. My roommate, in need of watching a romantic feel-good movie rented the DVD and I got sucked into watching it. I have to admit, I did not have high hopes, but I never ...

Pros: Good actors and actresses, otherwise not many to speak of
Cons: Cliches, cliches, a terrible pace with a stupid moral.

I had already seen Ella Enchanted and enjoyed it, but my friend had not. We were deciding whether or not to go to the Prince and Me or Ella Enchanted (read my review on it!) I was going to see the P & M a few days later, so I said it was her choice. We ...

Pros: costumes, acting, camera work, sets
Cons: characters, plot, script, very cliché

It is nearly impossible to explain how tired and bored I am getting of all these stupid and boring romantic comedies. In this completely tedious piece of cliché garbage, Paige (Julia Stiles), an American college student begins to fall in love with ...

Pros: Nice costumes and great scenery. Exciting views of castles.
Cons: Unrealistic plot and cheesy romance

This movie is a nice choice for children, but from an adult's perspective, one will see that the movie is unrealistic and altogether cheesy. The story itself is completely dull, however; the costumes and scenery are awesome. All in all, it's something ...
