Good start, but then it gets ruined
disgusting, overrated, pointless
Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
View MoreThe acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
View MoreMovie was great, but be prepared for the worst British accent.
View MoreThe "royals" accents in this film are among the least believable you'll ever hear. The leads do their best to be likeable but it's not enough. The music cues are over the top, even for Hallmark.
View MoreThere is a voyeuristic quality of watching a disaster unfold that keeps one tuned in to this Hallmark romance that has just the strangest set of faults. Firstly the production is cheap with the costumes sets and props visibly shabby. Secondly the actors are familiar but not quite right for their roles. Sam Page is a strange choice. His British accent was in turns laughable and missing. Why didn't they just put a British actor in the role or not have the character have a British accent? Cheryl Ladd as the boss looks scary - there is a Faye Dunaway quality to her face now. Jessy Schram is the leading lady a fashioned designer who falls for the prince. The romance was fairly cute and predictable but the faults were just too glaring.
View MoreI was loving this thanks to Jessy Schram and Sam Page. It was not unexpected that Abigail would try to interfere, but she was so blatant, obscenely blatant, that absolutely every one around Caitlyn could see it. The prince was oblivious. He should have recognized what was going on and stopped it. And Caitlyn is a total wimp. She just took it all. Given how important the opportunity was, she could easily have quit the magazine. But then we wouldn't have had a story. A woman with this little backbone would be crushed being in a royal family. Jessy Schram often plays the totally energetic and optimistic woman. It seems she overplayed the obedient servant a little too much.The story was full of humor and funny coincidences. Many of the lines early in the movie appear to be prophetic without the speaker realizing it.Cheryl Ladd is perfect as the woman you want to throw in one of Prince Jeffrey's dungeons. Possibly too perfect.These movies are known for sappiness. This movie has it in spades. I think it is too much. I believe the ending could have been more subtle and therefore more moving.Despite my complaints, I enjoyed this movie thanks mostly to Jessy Schram.
