Julia Stiles, Luke Mably, Miranda Richardson

The classic girlhood fantasy of marrying a handsome prince is given a surprisingly realistic and subtle treatment in The Prince and Me. A pre-med student at the University of Wisconsin named Pa...( read more  read more... )ige (Julia Stiles, 10 Things I Hate About You, Mona Lisa Smile) collides with a lazy, presumptuous exchange student named Eddie (Luke Mably, 28 Days Later) and, after a prickly beginning, falls in love with him--only to discover that Eddie is Edvard, the Crown Prince of Denmark. The scenario is pure wish-fulfillment, but director Martha Coolidge (Valley Girl, Rambling Rose) not only takes a closer look at what royal life is really like, she also takes the time to turn these fantasy roles into characters that have more than two dimensions. It's still a romantic comedy aimed at teenagers, but within the genre's parameters, the movie has a strong visual style and what might be called depth. --Bret Fetzer

    i saw enough of this to know that it was terrible. there was one hilarious scene over a thanksgiving meal that saves this film from the worst of the worst, but it was pretty bad.

    Trying to give the classic "Cinderella"-esque story a realistic and modern approach worked for The Princess Diaries only because of the irrepressible charms of the wonderful Anne Hathaway. Unfortunately, The Prince & Me does not have Anne Hathaway and while Julia Stiles has her m...( read more)erits, this movie fails to truly cast a spell over anyone other than 12-year-old girls who we know generally don't have the best ideas about life.

    Better than the sequel. Just wondering why Julia didn't take the role on the second movie.

    Quote:Though his original “Prince and Me” co-star Julia Stiles doesn’t return – for either budget, as in she’d cost more than the entire production ended up totalling too, or ‘Bourne’ reasons, as in she’s too busy with that second-fiddle role she plays in the “Bourne Identity” films with Matt Damon.
