Summary: Refreshing and Long Overdue Movie
Review: Princess Diaries was a refreshing change of pace and a movie that is long overdue. It was a funny and touching story that was about the most wholesome movie put out in a long time...probably since "The Little Princess". The theatre was packed and it was obvious that everyone enjoyed it, young and old and in-between. My only comment on the down side was the close range kissing scene or two, which could have been more subtly done.I have been totally disgusted with the amount of trash that has been available to our youth. Even PG movies include many messages and undertones revolving around disrespectful behavior, premature sexuality, obscenities, violence, drugs, alcohol and smoking. PG ratings should be PG-13 and PG-13 should be PG 17, the way it used to be. TV shows, commercials, radio, movies, magazines are totally preoccupied with extending their audiences to a wider base motivated by greed for higher profits. There is no concern for the long and short term effects on our society. I thank you for taking a step in the right direction. We need more movies like these.

Summary: The Princess Diaries is Great!
Review: This movie is wonderful! It has all the elements of a perfect movie...it's absolutely hilarious, it has romance, PLUS it has Julie Andrews, one of the best known and loved actresses to many people. What more could you ask of this movie?

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not for all ages
Review: While the story line is predictable and benign, there are several scenes with long kisses which I found inappropriate for girls under about age 10. Trying to explain gum swappping between teenagers to a 5-year old is not something I expected to have to do so soon.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally- a great family movie!
Review: The Princess Diaries is a refreshing time at the movies. This type of movie is a rarity, no profanity and a great story. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must See!!!
Review: EXCELLENT Movie! Definitely a MUST SEE!!! Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway really work well together. The movie is fun and entertaining but also touching. You don't feel like you just wasted a couple of hours doing nothing. Truly a worthwhile film.

GO SEE IT! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

Summary: The Princess Diaries
Review: After reading the book, The Princess Diaries, by Meg Cabot about a year ago and enjoying it, I was thrilled that there was going to be a movie based on that novel. But its not. Basically the only thing that was the same was the whole concept, but there are NO similarities with the book! Don't get me wrong, this was a good movie, but being a fan of the book I think that I was expecting much more. Also, another thing that I didn't like was the G rating. The book is very much so pg-13, so this isn't nearly as detailed. Overall, its a good movie to go watch and enjoy. Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews were GREAT. Note to fans of the book: Don't be expecting anything.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Movie
Review: I had seen the previews for this movie and had originally planned to see it just because i guy i liked was in it (Erik von Detten) but when i rushed out to see it with my friend, i really liked it. Because it is made by Disney there is always going to be some sappy moments and slapstick comedy but it was still a very enjoyable film to watch. If you're going out to have a good time it is a great movie and worth your money. I would recommend it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Enjoyable for all ages
Review: Our family watched this movie at the request of our 11 year old daughter. The movie is touching and funny. Julie Andrews was fabulous!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Family Movie
Review: In the world of violence and all that other stuff, who thought it would be possible to have a Live-action flim get the G-rated nod. Well it is possible, and it seems anything with Disney is possible. Academy award winner Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway, are brilliant in this flim. They play the grandmother/granddaughter roll beautifully. If you are looking for a corney movie go somewhere else, because this movie was great. I give it 5 ***** and two thumbs up. I recomend it for all. Well buh bye now, and I'll see you at the movies.
