The Prince & Me II: The Royal Wedding (2006)
Another bad sequel
What a pity, if they were going to do a sequel, they don't secure the original artistes. The role of Paige has been taken by somebody else who sucks! It was, unfortunately for her, created by the very beautiful and highly talented Julia Stiles. In the original, she took this role and totally made it her own. Unfortunately, the others also do not live up to the original movie, and this time the story line is very weak. They should either have stuck to a winning formula, or left it at just the one movie which was so enjoyed by all. This one was very tedious, and that is not just the opinion of the adults, but our 9 year old daughter as well!!
The Prince & Me (2004)
This film definitely succeeds!
This is a film that has all the right "feel good" elements to it! It's an old story - actually a modern day, non-musical version of the beautiful Sigmund Romberg classic "The Student Prince", except with a happier ending. The old musical starred Edmond Purdom, Ann Blythe and the golden voice of Mario Lanza. We hired this version for our 9 year old daughter and ended up enjoying it as much as she did. In fact, my wife and I both shed a tear. Julia stiles is great and the others all give very credible performances! Our 5 year old son actually watched it a second time before we were allowed to return it! This movie is well worth a visit to the DVD store.
Be My Baby (2007)
Bad bad movie has no redeeming features!
It was evident 10 minutes into this movie that it was probably the biggest load of rubbish I have ever seen. I have watched plenty of boring "kids'" movies because I have a 9 year old daughter and 5 year old son, so we are subjected to some really bad "kiddies'" stuff. Even my 9 year old daughter commented that it was so bad - she wanted to stop watching. The story line is feeble, the acting is totally atrocious, the filming is bad - it's like watching a really bad foreign movie having been dubbed into English. There is no redeeming feature to this movie - we suggested to the shop that they have a special section made especially for this movie entitled, "Positively the worst movie I have ever seen".
