Un prince pour Noël

Yes timing is everything and I picked the right time to watch this amazingly good Christmas show, DO NOT pay any attention to any bad reviews. The Prince and Emma really seemed made for each other , BUT then were they, Hmmmm Watch and see. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 11/24/2020

As I have indicated in other IMDb reviews, it doesn't really matter what "country of origin" the production company chooses to stamp on its press releases, the Canuck film industry has over the years pretty much cornered the market on these specific type of X-mas treats, and you could not find a more typical variation if you tried.

The settings are Canadian, as is the crew, and the extras are so Canadian it hurts. (Although -- a mercy -- somewhere in this millennium Canada learned that the first priority for its films was teaching its actors to lose the accent.)

The story however is rock solid, the direction is more than competent, and the two leads, Viva Bianca and Kirk Barker are actually quite amazing. They work with the script very aggressively and sell it. Bianca in particular gives no indication she played the #1 heartless bi-yach in Spartacus and comes across as sweet, competent, someone you really would want to know.

Recommended.

Light, entertaining romantic comedy. A little predicable, but enjoyable.

One of the early movies in the royal and a commoner genre we're now flooded with. It lacks originality, charismatic actors, and sometimes even logic. The prince obviously took a commercial transatlantic flight to the US since he went incognito, so how the hell did he end up in the middle of nowhere instead of New York in the first place? Or did he travel in his ridiculous royal outfit the whole time the second time around? I usually enjoy feel-good TV movies, but this was pretty bad. I'd rather watch any of Hallmark's movies with a similar plot again than this one.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE FILM. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM HONEST! Prince Duncan (Kirk Barker) from a small European country who comes to America to escape an arranged marriage to a woman he doesn't love. While there he meets and falls in love with a young waitress named Emma (Viva Bianca) struggling to keep her diner open and take care of her younger sister Alice (Brittany Beery). She also being pursued by her on again off again boyfriend who wants to get married to her.

The film is not original 1 bet. You know what is going to happen. However the film makers made this movie that looks like a Norman Rockwell painting. The acting by the 2 leads is very good. I saw this on the Hallmark Channel. Check it out if you can.

Suitable for everyone. Most men and children under 12 will be bored. I have seen over 150 Christmas movies and this is one of the better ones!
