Making it through high school without throwing up is a challenge in itself for Mia, so it doesn't come as welcome news when her estranged grandmother, Queen Clarisse Renaldi (Dame Julie Andrews), shows up out of the blue and calmly informs her that she is in fact the heir to the throne of a European country called Genovia.

This film is wicked, I've watched it like, a hundred times and i'm 18. And i'm still not fed up of it, in fact i will probably watch it tonight.How people don't love this film is crazy. Anne Hathaway is such a talented actress and shows it in this film, With people like Julie Andrews and Hector Elizondo and such like working on a film together how can it not be great. I would say the reason i like the films obviously because an unpopular girl gets one over on the popular, but also because of the love story between Mia and Michael, it's sooooo sweet.
If you haven't seen it yet you really should. I mean even if you don't have kids or a younger sister just watch it.
