Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Python Hyena The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004): Dir: Garry Marshall / Cast: Anne Hathaway, Julie Andrews, Hector Elizondo, Chris Pine, Heather Matarazzo: Every bit as predictable as its successor but this one is about marriage and authority surrounding Princess Mia being crowned Queen of Genovia but council ruling claims that she must be married. This leaves a corrupt official an opening for his nephew who is an heir. So now Mia has 30 days to find a husband. Predictable with not a shred of creativity other than the fact that Mia's maids should not be allowed out in public. Directed by Garry Marshall who made the first film as well as the adult version titled Pretty Woman. Anne Hathaway is ready for something bigger and better. This role requires her to get to know a guy in record time before deciding to spend the rest of her life with him. What a crock of sh*t. Julie Andrews sings, which is about the only positive aspect to her otherwise familiar character. Hector Elizondo is the security adviser with sound advice that unfortunately doesn't involve leaving this film. Chris Pine plays the umpteenth boring male heir lined up to score quickly and pretend this is happily ever after bullshit. Heather Matarazzo also reprises her role as that annoying best friend from home that nobody liked in the first film. Typical sequel that is about as engaging as a kick in the ass. Score: 3 / 10

nitedrive73 I am of the opinion that everything in life needs to be viewed in a proper perspective.You can't compare Princess Diaries to a masterpiece directed by Ridley Scott.It would be profoundly unfair to both parties. Over all,this movie which I happened to watch one night when it was too late to bother finding something else worth watching on TV,is okay to pass an hour and a half with when you need an uncomplicated laugh. No more,no less. A romcom for girls under 20 and perhaps their moms. Full of americanocentric stereotypes,a fictional continental European country which resembles a liliput nation such as Luxembourg and where people's names are a mish-mash of Italian,French and German-sounding syllables. Think "General von Klinkerhoffen" from "Allo',Allo'" and you will be pretty close. A country where monarchy actually RULES,like it did in the medieval times,a fictional,uncomplicated Europe with Sleeping Beauty- castles,green pastures complete with shepherds and cobbled streets.And all of this meets a gum-chewing,easy-going all-American girl who introduces the revolutionary idea of women actually being able to marry whomever they choose. What a remarkable achievement!It initiallt frightens me a bit to think that some people in the USA actually might believe that this represents a true picture of the European countries where monarchy still exist,but the thought is merely amusing.No,European monarchs do not RULE countries,they are merely trade marks. So now you know it.

el_bock This movie is probably one of the worst i've seen all year...Except for having one of the most predicable and uninteresting story lines of any movie i've ever seen, it gives me chills to think, that this is actually what some, and after the making of this movie even more, people think that life in Europe is like. More than that though this movie is also pretty much a commercial for abolishing monarchy, in that it portrays the system and its supporters as either idiotic or evil, While I personally don't really care as long as a system of government has freedom guaranteed for it's citizens, this movie says to me that its a bad system as long as its not the one the Americans use.And While I realize this is a movie and should be regarded as such, a fictional story, I find it to be too close to reality to not be closer lest it be an open insult to anyone who ever took a European history or politics course.You can hate me for saying so but that is what i feel.

CKCSWHFFAN I enjoy both of the films. I 1st watched them simply to see Julie's performance. The film is cute but flawed, NOT near perfect. Some scenes work, others drive you crazy on how cheesy they are.After the surgery that hurt Julie's ability to sing the chance to see her sing in the film Disney HAD TO RUIN TO ADD THAT RAVEN GIRL IN THE SONG JUST BECAUSE SHE HAD A SHOW ON THE Disney CHANNEL AT THE TIME. JULIE SHOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN A SONG SHE COULD DO ON HER OWN. Do we need to point out Julie's Disney history? Her 1st film "Mary Poppins" won her the Oscar. The soundtrack won an Oscar & Julie sang several memorable songs. Did Disney forget this? I did NOT like Larry Miller's character in either film Hector Elizondo was good as Joe in both filmsGood, not outstanding, extras on the DVD.Songs in the film did NOTHING for me.REVIEW FOR DVD
