O Príncipe do Natal: O Bebê Real

A Christmas Prince: The Royal Baby U/G (2019) Netflix

Here it is! For Christmas Crapola lovers, this is the big one. Forget The Rise of Skywalker this Christmas; the conclusion of the 'A Christmas Prince Trilogy' TM is the one we've all been waiting for.

For the uninitiated, the previous two films told the story of how the Prince/King of fictional Aldovia meets and marries a girl from New York. Obviously, Richard has now knocked up Amber and this one's about the birth of their baby, though the narrative is actually more based around the signing of an ancient treaty with a country that is supposed to be in Europe but seems to be a fictional version of China. There's also a 'curse on the baby' subplot that adds a little creepiness towards the end as it all goes a bit Agatha Christie.

The 'Christmas Prince's great strength is, like The Knight Before Christmas, it spends a decent budget on a great Christmas backdrop. It never misses the opportunity to throw in a Christmas Carol and the decorations are fabulously over the top.

Christmas Cheese Rating: 10/10 A Christmas tree in every room in the palace, minimum.

Snow Rating: 9/10 It starts off with unmistakable 'fire extinguisher in summer' work, which is very disappointing for this franchise. However, normal service is quickly resumed and they still do proper filming on location in Romania. Stellar work.

Actually Any Good Rating: 9/10 As Christmas Crapola goes, the A Christmas Prince Trilogy is the franchise to beat.

FIRST OF ALL - this is NOT a Hallmark movie. It is a production solely for Netflix. Please don't confuse productions.

All three Christmas Prince movies are good clean fun. Not based on any reality. BTW - there's no such country either. Just watch for what they're worth. Placing any sense of reality on these movies is ridiculous. Everything is over the top. Take them for what they are ...

Another good movie from Netflix. I like that they released one of these each year and the characters are all the same. It was nice to revisit the royal family and enjoy the ride with them to becoming parents! These movies are done well. The are nice to watch when you need a feel-good movie but don't want something quite as cheesy as Hallmark.

If you are a teen you will love the movie if you just want to watch something nice not a horror thriller or intense drama something lighthearted you can watch it

Love these movies. They totally deliver what they promise: fluffy romantic Christmas fun. But the reason why I'm commenting is to ask Netflix to give Emily her own series or movies. She stole the show again. 10/10 for Emily!!!
