Critic Reviews
-
Ed Park, Village Voice
Paige eventually comes to a self-affirming decision, but the Danish interlude succeeds too well in making us feel her boredom.
-
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
... thumbs down for me ...
-
Sara Gebhardt, Washington Post
Nothing is new about the movie's premise, but it is entertaining all the same.
-
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
Bland and immediately disposable.
-
Claudia Puig, USA Today
Even its pre-teen audience could use a bit more quirkiness and a little less formula.
-
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
The sound you hear is the death rattle of the women's movement.
-
Nell Minow, Common Sense Media
Good acting saves unoriginal Cinderella story.
-
David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
...generally remains a cut above the majority of its contemporary romcom brethren - with the dreaded fake break-up handled particularly well (the second fake break-up is kind of pushing it, though).
-
Dan Lybarger, eFilmCritic.com
A Royal Letdown.
-
James Plath, Movie Metropolis
the script and Martha Coolidge direction are so play-it-safe formulaic that the film lacks fairy-tale luster. It's as predictable as an Elvis movie-without the music.
-
Doris Toumarkine, Film Journal International
As pleasing as The Prince & Me can be, director Martha Coolidge's film delivers nothing to advance the genre.
-
Joe Utichi, FilmFocus
Julia Stiles is sweet in this charming, but unfulfilling, rom-com.
-
Anna Smith, Empire Magazine
This attempt at a modern-day Cinderella story is about as PC as a Career Girl Barbie and disappoints due to poor structure, flimsy characterisation and insufficient wit to distract from the above.
-
James Christopher, Times [UK]
A woeful and predictable outing for Cinders and an impossibly twitty prince
-
Neil Smith, BBC
A shallow exercise in wish-fulfilment that wants to have its royal wedding cake and eat it too.
-
Pablo Villaca, Cinema em Cena
A mocinha não precisava ser Ph.D em Dramaturgia, é claro, mas tampouco deveria ser retratada como alguém com Q.I. inferior ao de Forrest Gump.
-
Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall
Pure fairy tale, but it's also charming enough to win us over in the end.
-
Luanne Brown, Hometownsource.com
Coolidge wisely works within the confines of the romantic comedy genre and delivers a quality experience.
-
Karina Montgomery, Cinerina
It's exactly the kind of movie you want it to be. Rent it with your best girlfriends on a blustery spring afternoon.
-
Thomas Delapa, Boulder Weekly
To wed or not to wed, that is the royal question. You won't need to know Shakespeare to guess the answer, only Hollywood.

The best was this one. The rest are horrible and missing Julia Stiles big time.
-
I just didn't get it. Not princessy enough for me (barely any scenes in the royal palace!), but not high school enough either. It's just a lot of Julia Stiles rehashing 10 Things I Hate About You and that other dude not being as charming as Heath Ledger.

Another stock story - this one about a girl-from-the-farm falling in love with a prince-in-hiding. The prince asks her to marry him, but she does not want to live an inconsequential life being hounded by paparazzi, so she goes home -- and you know how it will end.
-
Funny. Missed the beginning, but it was entertaining. A little corney but, not over the top. It was what I expected.
-
These supposed to be sweet comedy/romance movies with these supposed to be sweet actresses make me sick, Stiles is annoying like always
-
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.
-
It's just never-gonna-happen escapist fantasy fun. And I'm glad the script doesn't allow for inane hedging around with "Let me explain - I - but- you" et cetera et cetera ad nauseum. The characters actually get chances to speak.
-
-
Pretty good and at one point it feels like two movies.

Ok, since when do the Danish people speak English with a British accent? If you know Danish people, you know that they speak English in an entirely different accent, that's for sure. This may be how Americans see Danish people but it clearly isn't the case in the real world.… More
Ok, since when do the Danish people speak English with a British accent? If you know Danish people, you know that they speak English in an entirely different accent, that's for sure. This may be how Americans see Danish people but it clearly isn't the case in the real world. This really bummed me out. But on the other hand the story was cute and very much a chick flick. Well designed for 13 year old US girls.

It?s a tale of star-crossed lovers with Edward Valdemar Dangaard (Luke Malby) being the bad-boy Prince of Denmark, royally gifted at landing in the tabloids for his various rich-boy indiscretions. Paige Morgan (Julia Stiles) plays the dedicated pre-med student, who takes an immediate dislike for him, and this is something he has never encountered before. Nevertheless the two predictably fall in love. Edward flies back to Denmark and Paige is now torn between going to med school and Edward. However despite the "girl finds her prince" theme, she remains a strong person, who keeps her identity and dreams.

Fairytale romance about a pre-med student at the University of Wisconsin falling in love with a prince from Denmark. Luke Mably does an admirable job as Prince Edward who goes by the name "Eddie" at UW. In a classic fish out of bowl experience, Prince Edward learns how to slice turkey, milk a cow, and do laundry. Julie Stiles plays the lead character of Paige Morgan. She's a perfect fit for this role. When an actress becomes the character that equals success. I will not see the Prince and Me 2 because Julia Stiles IS Paige Morgan. Plain and simple.
-
I like Julia Stiles. I think that she has potential if she would choose better roles. This was fine for what it was designed to be!
-
Feisty leads, slapstick and a fish-out-of-water premise do not make up for a slack script, lousy characterisation and mawkish sentiment.
-
I actually liked this romantic comedy with Julia Stiles. Fun and romantic, and I actually cried at one part. lol..what a sap, I am. But it's a good one to watch. Cinderella type of movie.
-
Entertaining, to say the least.
