 Why make a movie if you have to change actors? April 20, 2009
Bradley Poole (Lawrenceburg, KY USA)
What happened to Julie Stiles and Ben Miller? Other actors have been changed also. Why bother making this a sequel if you don't have the same people? If they wanted to make this movie, it should have just been a stand alone instead of tying it to a previous movie.
I didn't care for the change of actors. I also can't imagine a girl who would go through all that and still hang around a while after he would not answer that he would not give her up for the throne and immediately make plans to marry someone else. Get real! She found the loop hole after all that! It wasn't until the last minute that he decided he loved her more than the throne but she had been working all that time to find the loophole. Instead of just having someone tell the "wicked" girl that they weren't getting married, they tried to make something comical by locking her in a room and having her ride a horse, fall in the mud and run in the church. I'm sure that was supposed to be funny but it was just stupid. The change in actors, the bad acting and the attempts at humor in this movie actually made it just sad. A movie with the theme of prince and "norm" could have been pulled off with a re-write, not being tied to another movie as a sequel, break-up with the "princess" and a prince who showed his loved instead of getting immediately engaged to another woman.
 Huge letdown February 3, 2009
Curious Reader (Atlanta, GA)
After watching Julia Stiles bring an exciting chemistry with Luke Mabry on phase one of this story, it is unconscionable that the producers allowed all the "subs" to be part of this second act. There was no meshing of Eddie and Paige in this version, and leaving out the original parents of both was a HUGE mistake. Part of the charm of the first version was the interaction of Eddie with Paige's family. There was much to explore in the sequel for Paige to do the same with Eddie's parents. And, Arrabella was left out completely. This was a slapstick attempt at comedy and romance and this movie failed on both counts.
One of the worst movies ever February 2, 2009
Karen (Fort Wayne, IN USA)
I loved the first The Prince and Me and was excited that a sequel was being made. Unfortunately, the sequel falls far, far short of the the first movie.
The first problem I noticed was that the entire film is just slightly out of focus. I didn't see a single crystal clear shot in the whole film. In addition the lighting was such that it seems as if no one gave lighting any consideration. All in all, very sub-par photography.
The next problem was the script. The actors lines seemed very stilted almost as if the script writer was a beginner. It was almost as if the shooting script was first draft. There were a number of places in the movie where the writer could have inserted really good lines for the actors ... but didn't ... for whatever reason.
There was also a problem with continuity; things would change from shot to shot and it seemed as if no one was paying any attention to detail. A lot of things changed from the first movie; Paige is now blonde, Edvard's father is healthy again, no mention is made of his sister Arabella, Paiges parents look as if someone grabbed them right off the street. The list goes on and on.
The climax of the movie, the wedding scene, was truly disappointing. This was a "royal" wedding? Mt brothers wedding was better than this and it certainly wasn't royal!
The DVD itself is also disappointing. Amazon lists the DVD as wide screen. The printed DVD front and back also indicate that it is wide screen. They are both mistaken. What the movie actually is is a wide screen movie letter boxed into full screen. It WILL NOT play in wide screen.
In summation, this movie fits right in along with Plan 9 From Outer Space and The Robot Monster. It is almost as if a couple of would-be film makers got a couple of hundred dollars together and decided to make a movie. Save your money for something worthwhile. It ain't it!
 Not as bad as I thought December 7, 2008
Courtney Rabideau (USA)
The Prince and Me 2 is a sequel to The Prince and Me.
Luke Mably is the only actor that was actually in the original and while it takes a little to get past the differences the movie is not too bad.
Paige Morgan and Prince Edvard of Denmark are engaged to be married. That is until Edvard's distant cousin finds a law that states that The King has to marry a royal from Denmark and trys to get his daughter Kirsten to break up the engagment.
Soon it looks like Edvard and Paige are history and that he will marry Kirsten. Paige doesnt give up though and goes looking for a loophole so that she and Edvard can get married.
What happens next? Watch Prince and Me 2
The Prince & Me 2 November 3, 2008
Marilyn Parker (USA)
I like the first one, but they change the actress and it is not the same. I rate it fair and got it to go with the first one.
