The Princess Switch: Switched Again

Fans of the Princess Switch will not be disappointed in this second instalment of the movie series. Though the story was predictable and the premise behind the 're-switch' made little sense, the movie kept me engaged thru-out. Plus, there was a bit of a twist to the 'switch' this time around. Vanessa Hudgens's performance, in her multiple roles, was excellent. And the performances of the supporting cast, such as Nick Sagar (as Kevin) and Sam Palladio (Edward), were strong. The dialogue was cute and funny at times; I laughed a bit with the use of new words such as 'couzy' (aka cousin). And I do like the Balkan theme for the names of the kingdoms. I was trying to come up with some myself during the film...maybe 'Croatiannia' (for Croatia) or 'Ljubljanaro' (for Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia). The scenery, props and sets were beautiful. Well done. Overall, though a bit silly at times, I found myself taken in by this movie. It is a cute, funny, and entertaining film, a nice little edition to Netflix's original Christmas movies.
