फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
A Royal Corgi Christmas? Give me a break.
But I know sometimes Hallmark gives stupid names to some pretty good movies.
Then I saw it was directed by Clare Niederpruem, who directed Holiday for Heroes, Christmas Bow and One December Night, good movies all.
I am really sick of the whole royalty thing, but they keep making them so they must appeal to someone.
This was a little different.
The American commoner is a dog trainer hired by the monarchy to tame a Corgi which has been gifted to the queen by her son. She is clumsily respectful at first, but in time she comes to interact with them as people and eventually comes to playfully mock them and their royal trappings.
Hunter King as Cecily is so good. She is not the typical Hallmark beauty, but her personality is what makes her special. This is not to say she's unattractive.
She and Jordan Renzo as the prince have excellent chemistry.
Julie Lamberton as the princess is also excellent. I would not be surprised to see her in leading roles in the near future.
The only reason I would grade down a little is the traditional Hallmark misunderstanding at the 100 minute mark is a little clumsy, and the reconciliation left me scratching my head a little.
Otherwise, well worth watching.

Difficult to ignore the royal theme as good option to save, in some measure, a dusty Hallmark romance. And seductive use of corgi for something who remains a boring, artificial story. The traits of prince, reminding a sort of Helmuth Berger was , for me, for couple scenes , a good point. But the final was so pathetic to pure fake than it compromisses all good intentions.
Indeed, a nice queen and decent princess .
But the young woman was the not exactly inspired option for her role and the few good moments were more a kind of anesthesya to a story who seems pretty improvised.
But, sure, noble intentions, old recipe, too familiar final.
And that is just all.

Hunter King plays Cecily, a corgi dog trainer who is hired to help Prince Edmond, played by Jordan Reno, who inexplicably bought a rescue corgi. I didn't really buy the premise, and I thought Reno looked more like a California surfer than an heir to the throne of the latest fake monarchy ("Comfrey"). But the dogs are really cute.
I'm really only writing this review to react (negatively) to Cecily's repeated bowing to royalty.
Americans should be polite, but they shouldn't bow to foreign leaders. This may be a bit lawyerly (I can't help it, I'm a lawyer) but the US Constitution (Article I, section 9, clause 8) prohibits titles of nobility or monarchy in the U. S. and it is considered inappropriate for Americans to bow or curtsy towards any foreign monarch or noble. We fought a war to get rid of kings and queens.
Nevertheless, in fairness to how the character was written, Cecily is a bit of a ditzy nervous fish out of water who undoubtedly wasn't sure what the protocol was. It's come to my attention (through my daughter) that the King sisters have generated rather strong mixed reactions. Joey King has built a successful career (the Kissing Booth) and Hunter King was entertaining in Hallmark's Hidden Gems. I find them appealing in an unconventional way and they're both talented. But I can see how that might not be a universal view.
This was actually a pleasant movie to watch. The corgis are cute and are wisely included in most of the scenes. One of my favorite scenes is when the future king is told to address the dog's "basic needs" by picking up its poop.
I can do without the overused "almost kiss" which occurs here during a "steamy" scene.
I enjoyed the reference to Charlotte's Web by E. B. White:
"We take to the breeze, we go as we please."
Prince Edmond dreams of such freedom, and Cecily has it.
I keep saying that I'm tired of the Royal and Regular Person trope but I have to admit, this wasn't a bad entry in the long list of Hallmark movies that repackage that trope.

Hallmark and all the other rom-com film producers always screw up movies about royalty, it's usually fake with bad scripts and acting and direction and this is one of the worst. The script and dialog is just bad, there are better actors out there with real English accents, the accents here were not good. The plot was uninteresting and I turned it off after an hour. They should get a new casting director.
Writers of these rom-coms should watch "The Crown", "The Queen", "The King's Speech" and other solidly written films that are about royalty. They should bring in good British screenwriters when they're going to do stories about royals, not cartoon writers. Scenes can be comedic without being just plain dumb, it's like these were written by 3rd graders.
I gave it a rating of "2" because I liked the corgis.

I'll give any movie a try if it has corgis in it, and this one had wall-to-wall corgis being cute and doing cute things. As for the storyline, well its about a misbehaving royal corgi that photo bombs a royal event. The corgi becomes a national sensation which leads to all kinds of good things for the community and the royal family's reputation. Meanwhile, the female lead falls in love with the dog trainer who is also the male lead. There is not much else to this movie other than fundraising/social events that give the corgis excuses to be in the movie. Its formula Hallmark and there is barely enough storyline in it to keep your interest. I came for the movie, but only stayed to the end for the corgis.
