Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Very disappointing
Review: As a 30 years old guy, I felt I'm 15 years too old to enjoy this movie. I can't recommend any of my friends to go and see it, in second thought, I can't recommend anyone to go and see it. The only thing that saved this movie and gave me the reason to see it all the way till the end, was the fact it was filmed in the amazing city of San Francisco and the views from there are beautiful.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: enjoyably mindless comedy
Review: While fairly predictable, the Princess Diaries provided exactly what I expected - a nice, non-thought provoking comedy to go see on a mindless summer evening. A fairly safe date movie (just enough of a feel-good love story) or a great movie for kids of all ages, the Princess Diaries, while not one of the Disney must-sees, is still better than some of the the other ... stuff currently playing.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cute and Happy and Entertaining
Review: I thought this movie was very cute and well-acted. Being a Disney movie, it is fairly predictable (hence the four stars), but there were quite a few laughs during the movie. Julie Andrews was great, as usual, and Anne Hathaway is great a comedy. All in all, I found it to be very entertaining and would recommend it to girls and women who want to see a light-hearted movie. This movie will not disappoint.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Princess Diaries
Review: The review of the movie is all ready very funny. I cant wait to see it in the movie's. The movie looks soo funny that I would crack myself up at the movie's. I think that they picked a very talented actress to be the PRINCESS. The role fits her perfect. She makes the movie seem very easy yet she is good at it. Her grandmother in the movie fits her role good too. She looks like a queen in real life. The whole movie looks funny, but my favorite part is when the princess breaks the glass when a man tries to make an anouncement. I am sure the movie had a very talented writer. I just wanted to say that looks like a very good, funny and spectacular movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply Irresistible
Review: I have seen an advance screening of Disney's THE PRINCESS DIARIES and fell in love with the film. Newcomer Anne Hathaway is charming as Princess Mia, a normal, yet akward, 15 year old girl whose grandmother (Julie Andrews) visits and tells her she is heir to a small European country. She has until her 16th birthday to accept the throne. A delight for mothers and daughters of all ages - I'm in my twenties and plan on taking my mother once its wide release. A perfect family film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Funniest Show EVER!!!!!!!!!
Review: THis show has an everyday plot ... with a twist!! It is hilarious. The plot of the show is a young outcast girl finds out that she is a princess!! (Every girls dream) the whole show is pretty much about her trying to become the princess. For a better review... SEE THE SHOW!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Princess Perfect
Review: I loved this movie! I saw it at a screening in July and absolutly fell in love with it. The laughter never stops with this great cast. The only thing that made this movie unbelivable is the fact that this transformation from regular high school student to royal princess never happens. Yet it was a great story line and is an awsome movie for the whole family.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Looks Great!
Review: I never read the book, but if it is more PG-13 than G, I think it's good that Disney changed it because the story sounds like something for little children. But I think it looks funny. The sarcasim of Mia on the previews is great! "Somebody Sat on me again"! Hahaha.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good mother-daughter film...
Review: This my be one of the best films for a mother and daughter to go to. It's a fun film that both generations will enjoy. It's like a "Pretty Woman" for the younger kids. I saw this movie at a screening in June, and to be totally honest, I wasn't sure if I would even enjoy it. Being that I have just finish the 10th grade, this film I thought really showed the true high school life in this date in time. I was very surpirsed to have enjoyed it as much as I did. This film may appeal to the younger crowd, but believe me it was even enjoyable and fun for those older as well. If your looking for a cute film and you enjoyed "Pretty Woman" and "Runaway Bride" then you won't be disappointed!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: My Hypothesis
Review: Considering this particular movie has not actually been released yet, the basis of my predictions are fully hypothetical. When looking at the members of the cast, it seems as though they were meant to bring experience to this movie. Even without a good story line these actors could bring on a brilliant show. Julie Andrews brings class, Anne Hathaway and Heather Matarazzo brings style and flavor. Erik Von Detten brings artistry. All except, Mandy Moore. I am not exactly sure what to expect from her. Do I like her music? Well, not really. Is she a good singer? She's okay. Just because I don't like her type of music, doesn't mean she isn't any good. But, seeing her act is not something I want to see a lot from her. I have seen her appearances on 2gether, and Mad TV. I will admit that she is a great singer, but just because one can sing does not mean her talents add to the big screen. Jennifer Lopez could do it, even Madonna occasionally. But, Mandy Moore does not hit big in the acting business. The sad thing about this is that she will probably continue receiving more acting jobs, just because she's tall, pretty and can sing. Which is perfectly ridiculous considering there are people out there who can act 20 times better. But maybe not as tall and skinny. Which just disappoints me. All in all, thought I am sure that the strong cast can bring Mandy up, and maybe she has learned a few pointers. I have read the book, and many comedic moments brought me laughing. I am sure that if they haven't changed the movie much from the book, that it will shine brightly. But, from seeing the trailer, it seems as though they did................................(change).................
