The plot is ridiculous and everyone makes dumb decisions. People are also not paying for their crimes. It's dumb, it's fun and I want another one.

Fans of the Princess Switch will not be disappointed in this second instalment of the movie series. Though the story was predictable and the premise behind the 're-switch' made little sense, the movie kept me engaged thru-out. Plus, there was a bit of a twist to the 'switch' this time around. Vanessa Hudgens's performance, in her multiple roles, was excellent. And the performances of the supporting cast, such as Nick Sagar (as Kevin) and Sam Palladio (Edward), were strong. The dialogue was cute and funny at times; I laughed a bit with the use of new words such as 'couzy' (aka cousin). And I do like the Balkan theme for the names of the kingdoms. I was trying to come up with some myself during the film...maybe 'Croatiannia' (for Croatia) or 'Ljubljanaro' (for Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia). The scenery, props and sets were beautiful. Well done. Overall, though a bit silly at times, I found myself taken in by this movie. It is a cute, funny, and entertaining film, a nice little edition to Netflix's original Christmas movies.

Rubbish.

Vanessa Hudgens remains terrific, but 'The Princess Switch: Switched Again' is disappointing in every other way. I enjoyed the first, but this is a let down. The plot is woeful, with the set-up and execution equally as bad. The new characters are lame, while what they do with the original lot is boring.

The new character is just annoying, not helped by how poorly they are written; as are the clichéd goons alongside, though noteworthy (for me) to see Ricky Norwood cast as one of them - Fatboy himself. iykyk. Elsewhere, the main bunch from the first film reprise their roles, with the exception of Alexa Adeosun as Olivia - which is a shame.

I admit this isn't anything utterly terrible, I didn't dislike it massively. I wanted a better follow-up though, this is a rather lacklustre attempt. A third film has already begun filming, I'll likely watch it either way but hopefully it's an improvement on this.

It's a christmas chick flick that is enjoyable. Vanessa played three different roles and was on screen 80-90 percent of the movie. Thats talent. Every christmas movie is not going to be a 10/10. They are written for generally a younger crowd to sit around with family and enjoy, or the couple wanting to get into the holiday spirits and watch a movie together in the evening over hot cocoa. If you thought you were going to get the new BIG MUST SEE every year christmas movie after knowing this is a sequel.... then i don't know what to tell you. I enjoyed it. It was predictable to a point. It wasn't all over the place or overly complicated. It had a lot going on but it made sense. And if i was able to follow the entire movie you probably should put your phone down and enjoy a "FUN" movie for what it is.

I saw similarities with "a Christmas Prince" so the story is not really original. But the characters are lovely and pretty cute. The storyline is just okay. I loved to see Queen Amber and King Richard with the baby. I was just excited about to see Rose McIver and Ben Lamb.

But let's be honest it wasn't really hard. The first was a messy, cheap disaster. This movie has more care put into it and a much better use of the money. The sets don't look as cheap as the first one, the stand ins look better. I was pretty shocked because normally the second film in a series tend to get cheaper and more lazy.

Was this a great film though? No. It was pretty fun to watch however because of the terrible, terrible disaster that was the third Vanessa. I honestly wish the movie was about her and the two minions. It was such a disaster that i couldn't stop laughing. It was the most cartoonish thing i have seen that isn't actually a cartoon. She had her own 'evil villain theme song' that played every time she walked places. The parts on the movies with just evil Vanessa and the two henchmen were the best parts because no one could act, the jokes were just terrible and it was just great.

I honestly could have done with out the rest of the movies happening though. I think they spread them selves really thin, there were lots of little plots going on and they all kind of got jumbled up. I got quite bored when evil Vanessa wasn't there.

Im sure if you like the first you will like this. Maybe even just skip to the parts where she is the evil one. Them parts really were something else.

This one had a different plot but overall acting was okay. just another ones of the christmas movies to watch. It was pretty funny some times but overall I preferred the first movie.

I rated this for the genre and not for movies in general. In that regard it's totally fine. It's warm and fuzzy, non sensical, but who cares. It was a nice sequel. Although how a husband wouldn't recognize his own wife is beyond me, but for the sake of the plot... Just sit back and watch this if you had a long day and wish to not think. Also, sugary sweet but that goes without saying.

Two questions: 1- how come there is a huuuuge fan base of Vanessa hudgens ? 2- definitely NOT exciting storyline.

If you had a negative feeling about this movie going in, you probably had a negative one going out. It's a light movie that builds off the first movie with even more ridiculousness and accents from Vanessa Hudgens. Yet, that's exactly the reason why I liked it. It's Netflix one upping Hallmark, sometimes you just need cozy.

It's no Oscar winner, let's be clear....

But if you're after a cosy and predictable Christmas chick-flick curled up on the sofa with a mug of mulled wine, this is the film for you.

Why always make another movie when the first one is successful. The first one was so good and this was one was just awful. They ruin everything, so many times that this happens

The Princess Switch: Switched Again is the worst sequel. The acting isn't as stiff, but definitely just as awkward. The dialogue is terrible, the story isn't needed, and the song when Fiona comes in is awful. This movie did not need to happen and bored me to death. I ended up stopping it halfway through.

Second time around the sequel has lost the comedic touch and fun the first movie had. It's still a decent Christmas movie and thanks to Netflix we have some to enjoy this Christmas.

Bad accents. Horrible writing. Corny antics. Predictable storyline. This is the kind of movie for which you put your brain next to the Elf on a Shelf, have your ditziest gal pals over, and open a couple of bottles of wine. It's just so bad it's good. And yes the "villain" and her minions make this entire production. They are the worst. I want to travel the world with them.

I'm definitely more of a fan of the 1st one just because this one is a little weird but still good. it's just the plot it's like they had to come up with something late and decided to have another doppelgänger ya know? no? okay.

The setting and plot was cute and entertaining enough, but Vanessa Hudgens trying to bounce between 3 personalities and people was not successful. The acting was embarrassingly bad and cheesy at times. The climax also could have been much more exciting.

It's not a fluke; Vanessa Hudgens' talent is not limited to teen romances; she can carry a movie for a more mature audience pretty well. The premise of look-alikes switching identities and finding love might sound too unrealistic and saccharine but Vanessa's earnest acting made it work in The Princess Switch and she made it work again in this sequel.

This time, it's Duchess Margaret's turn to land her happy ending with the help of her doppelganger, now a happily married Princess.

Watch out for yet another look-alike to stir things up even more.

Not a good watch, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend unless you're obsessed Vanessa Hudgens or the first movie / Freaky Friday tropes.

Look, Vanessa Hudgens does a good job working 3 times as hard for the same paycheck, but the story is a mess. The characters literally have discussions about how they don't know what's going on anymore.

The addition of this cousin undercuts the original movie's concept that it's amazing that someone else could look just like her. It is also barely amusing.

Where the first was "Freaky Friday" meets "princess diaries", this folds in "The Hustle" to add a criminal element, but like big crime: kidnapping and international affairs.

It is a very specific band of fans that are going to love this. It's not like there isn't anything to love, but the big selling point is the worst thing about the movie: it actually would have been good if they had the confidence to just do a simple switch again.

Really liked the first one so was looking forward to this.

It was silly at times but overall i really enjoyed it. Plus Vanessa Hudgens is awesome.

Will there be a third haha.

Just as much fun as the original watching Vanessa Hudgens do her thing in this typical holiday romp. The rest of the cast definitely good as well. And oh, the decorations are even more gorgeous!

I'm a sucker for romantic comedy's. Sure this movie is super cheesy, so much so I had to pause it every now and then. But I liked the movie, it was interesting and I was on the edge of my seat. Not everyone will like this movie, but if you like cheesy comedy's to snuggle on the couch with then this is for you. I hope they make a third one!

Like with the first movie I couldn't stop cringing when Vanessa spoke the posh Montenaro wannabe british accent but I still managed to watch until the end. The story of Switched Again was as good as it can get for a part 2 I guess. I did miss the actress Alexa playing the little girl Olivia from the first movie. The girl in part 2 was less charismatic and fun in my opinion.
