DVD Reviews of The Princess Diaries 2 - Royal Engagement (Full Screen Edition)DVD Review: Princess Diaries 2 Summary: 5 StarsLoveed this film and am happy I now own it. Am an ardent Julie Andrews fan and wish I could own all her films. Have watched it several times all ready. She is as great an entertainer as always.
DVD Review: The Princess Diaries 2-Royal Engagement Summary: 5 StarsI love this movie & have watched it severly times but enjoy it each & every time. I wish stuff like this really happened in real life because if it did happen to me I would be in 7th heaven.
DVD Review: Excellent customer service experience Summary: 5 StarsI ordered this product and realized only 2 days before Christmas that I never received it. I called Amazon.com who contacted the USPS, who could not provide tracking on the item. The person I spoke to at Amazon.com shipped another one out overnight so that I received it before Christmas. I am so pleased with the excellent customer service.
DVD Review: (Mostly) Family Fun Summary: 4 StarsClean humor, a heroic/romantic theme and mostly skin-free. Some kissing (but far less than the first part of this franchise.)
DVD Review: Princess Mia has to get married... Summary: 5 StarsPrincess Mia has been busy since we left her in the Princess Diaries. She has had Princess lessons, and has also just graduated from college.
Queen Clarisse, Mia's grandmother, wants to step down so that Mia can become Queen but the royal ad visors say that she can not be Queen until she is married. There is another hiccup also. Viscount Maybrey wants his nephew Nicholas Devereaux to be King since he also has royal ancestry. The advisers say they will give Mia one month to find a husband and then she can become Queen.
Mia is given a list of suitable husbands (one of which was Prince William) and she picks Andrew Jacoby, Duke of Kenilworth. They get engaged to be married, but Mia finds herself falling for Nicholas instead (even though she cannot stand him.) Things come to a head at Mia and Andrew's wedding. What happens after? Watch the movie.
This is a very good sequel to The Princess Diaries and Anne Hathaway and Chris Pine (who plays Nicholas) are great.
Description of The Princess Diaries 2 - Royal Engagement (Full Screen Edition)Starring the irresistible Anne Hathaway (ELLA ENCHANTED) and Academy Award(R) winner Julie Andrews (Best Actress, MARY POPPINS, 1964), this modern-day fairy tale picks up right where THE PRINCESS DIARIES left off! As future queen of Genovia, Princess Mia (Hathaway) has everything a girl could want -- except the magical romance she's always dreamed of. But soon, Mia's shocked to discover that she needs to get married right now or her family will lose the crown! Comic complications rule the day in this delightful family story about finding out who you really are and discovering what it takes to make your dreams come true! If you're a ten-year-old girl, this sequel to Disney's 2001 hit will completely transfix you. How could it not? Bubbly Mia (Anne Hathaway), the American teenager who in the first film learned she was actually European royalty, finishes college and--whoosh!--heads off to Genovia, where he's given a closet full of fabulous clothes and jewelry in preparation to rule the kingdom under the tutelage of grandmother Julie Andrews. Throw in a horse and a volatile but innocent romantic attraction to the dreamy young stud (Chris Pine) who's also vying for the throne, and you have the kind of stuff that prepubescent girls rhapsodize about at slumber parties. Oh--and there's a slumber party here, too, featuring a bevy of cute, international young princesses mattress-surfing down a giant slide. Resistance is futile. For the rest of us, though, director Garry Marshall has managed to make his Laverne & Shirley days seem positively Shakespearean in comparison. The movie is precious, padded (two hours!), and pandering twaddle; Andrews, in her role as Queen Mother, is even shoehorned into a faux-hip-hop duet with Disney Channel favorite Raven (one of many, many grueling moments intended to sell the soundtrack). Then the film takes a maddening left turn three-quarters of the way into the plot and decides that, despite all the preceding consumption and connubial fantasies to the contrary, it's really about feminine emancipation. But don't worry--what causes you to smack your forehead in frustration will go right over the heads of its hypnotized target market. --Steve Wiecking
