Princesse incognito

It was a relaxing show to sit and watch during the present chaos. It had a cute couple as the lead.

Reading the description that she's a princess from a small European country made me worried Carly would have an annoying fake accent and I was surprised she didn't play into this and it's even explained why she doesn't have an accent. The characters all worked well together for the story. I was slightly bored as we neared the end of the movie wanting it to just wrap up already. It's obvious where the movie was going and I just wanted it to end! I enjoyed the outdoor scenes and wanted to see more of the resort town. There weren't too many side stories which I appreciated, kept the story simple and straight forward. It was nice to see a princess story rather than all the princes coming to America and working at a summer job. I don't recall they explained why she came to this particular resort in the first place? Maybe I missed it.

I like royal movies as far as the plot is interesting. This was. I actually laughed. At one moment, at the beggining I thought "This is terrible, I love it". But it only got better. What I couldn't stand were the fake accents. My posh accent may be better (not really) and English is not even my first language.

Natalie's acting at moments was horrible. Chris McNally was the actual reason I watched this (Blame When Calls the Heart) and he did not disappoint. There was an actual winter going on, good chemistry between the leads and and not so common plot. (Incognito princess). That was enough for me. If you are a Hallmark fan like me (o even trashy movies), you will like it.

Natalie Hall is pretty in a classy way so she's right for the role of a princess. Chris McNally plays her ski resort love interest.

Princess incognito isn't the usual formula for Hallmark - it's usually the prince but it worked in Roman Holiday so there needs to be more.

For music they use nice waltzes.

Slightly better than the usual Royal Hallmark movies.

The acting was believable for the royals. A viewer gets a sense that the 'royals' have had special training and have grown up in a different world, but NOT over the top different.

The main actress does a very good job with her role, with 2 different faces. Many movies with a princess, the actress does not in any way shape or form give off anything that implies a lifetime of specialty training and decorum. Those kind of movies are real cop out. This movie does a good job comparing the two worlds, without vilifying either one.

There is no proverbial evil antagonist (almost always Caucasian male sometimes female) for a change. I have heard from people in the movie industry that it is hard for script writers to develop an engaging movie w/o one. It was a real treat and relief to just have decent people who mean well even if their views were different as the primary movie characters.

A very nice and engaging low budget movie
