Un principe per Natale

I had the biggest crush on Charles Shaughnessy 35 yrs ago on Days of Our Lives..and it seems he is the only one who can act in this movie. While Nick Hounslow is amazing to watch without his shirt on, that's the best part of the movie.

I made it 25 minutes in and had to stop. I LOVE Christmas romantic movies or royalty movies...I expect them to be probably be a bit juvenile, but this was horrible. Really bad over acting, poorly written, did i mention...REALLY BAD ACTING.

Wanted to love it....couldn't

This movie has some good moments. Some of them are funny. Some are sweet. But there are also inconsistent moments. The story attempts to pull in some of the usual plot devices and sentimental moments, but it's not done smoothly. Still, some of them work. Sometimes, I think it is difficult to mix silly comedy with more serious elements especially the more negative ones. And some of the usual plot devices are way too predictable and transparent.

The acting was similar - some moments were a little rougher than others. This is especially true of Kaitlyn Leeb. Also the chemistry between Leeb and Nick Hounslow was lukewarm.

I'm disappointed in the character of Doctor Miller. In more than one scene, even near the beginning, she looks far more like a scared little girl than a actual Doctor who has persevered through more than 99%+ people ever do and I don't think this was the acting, I think it was intentional, perhaps as either written or directed.

While the basic storyline is compelling, the acting is awful...stiff, over-done...with lines and behavior not fitting a doctor, security detail, etc. My guess is that this was a low-budget production and the casting crew were forced to hire less experienced lead actors. Having said that, there's no "off-color" language, nudity, or situations that would offend sensitive viewers or young children. That, in itself, is refreshing!!

All the plastic surgery can't hide the age difference...And...Holy Teeth Whitener, Batman! Moral of the story, even an aging prince deserves love.

I watch a lot of cheesy Christmas movies. They're dumb. They're predictable. But they're fun to watch. Usually. I've seen plenty of stinkers, but this one takes the cake. It was so awful, I wanted to run away screaming, but by golly I finished it. First of all, no one stays in the hospital for weeks for a broken leg. The prince could have easily just flown home to recover and I could have been spared this torture. Everything was so awful. The plot, script, acting, costumes, music, just everything. By the end of the movie, I had lost the will to live.
