Royal New Year's Eve

I 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.

I really do take rom coms like Hallmark at face value. Some plots are more creative than others. While many are cookie cutter predictable, the actors have great chemistry and are believable in what they're doing. I think the mistaken identity thing is a great storyline over all in any genre. Sadly, I am having to stop watching this movie part way through because the English accents from these royals- or accents from whatever small fake country he's supposed to be from, are so incredibly deplorable my ears want to bleed. I like Jesse Schraam, I've seen him in other stuff. He most definitely should not have been cast with this accent. And like I said I take these movies at face value, but I've also seen brad pitt destroy a perfectly good movie because of a horrific accent. too bad really, honestly had potential for a funny rom com story. I have to draw line somewhere. the other minor fake thing is a film set in New York and why they filmed in Vancouver I do not know. How many Hallmarks have I seen set AND filmed in NYC? Sorry Im from Vancouver and I love seeing local landmarks, but you cant run a camera around downtown Vancouver showing Howe and Dunsmuir and other places, then have everyone talking about how they are in NYC. filming loc. says only Van so I can assume rest of movie will also not show any NYC landmarks to make it believable.

Sam Page's accent was horrible! It ruined the movie for me! Overall, I enjoyed the story but is could have been so much better! Normally I love Sam Page but this is one movie that he was horrible in.

Nice story and chemistry with the leads, but the accents needed some work.

Cheryl Ladd's character was an absolute witch.

Enjoyable overall - worth a view!

I usually love all of the Hallmark movies, they are always happily ever after. Sam Page was not convincing at all. His accent was atrocious. He is usually a good actor, but this was definitely not his best effort! I had a hard time watching it, I kept thinking it would get better!

This is the first review I have ever written, but I felt compelled to speak up, so that hopefully it will help with similar movies in the future.
