A Right Royal Mess - By: fineeyes, 26 Dec 2007 
I watched this movie because I'm a huge Julie Andrews fan, the Princess Diaries books are a favourite guilty pleasure of mine (though I do think the joke has grown somewhat stale over the course of ten books) & although the first film wasn't brilliant, it was affable enough. This film, however, is a complete & utter waste of space. I can't believe it was actuallly a feature film that people paid money to see, the whole thing screams made-for-TV. Frankly, whoever wrote the script deserves to be shot, or at least banned from ever writing for the screen again.
The undisputed highlight is seeing Julie Andrews sing on screen again, but even that is ruined by making her duet with the hip hop star, which simply doesn't work. Anne Hathaway is incredibly irritating, one minute trying to be a benevolent, enlightened ruler, the next screaming her head off about having remote controlled drawers in her luxury suite & generallly acting like a pampered rich girl. The depiction of the impossible to tell apart, eager to please servants is grotesquely unfunny, & even rather offensive.
I can't believe even the most sheltered & dim-witted ten year old could find this tripe entertaining. Off with their heads, the whole lot of them.
Good sequal - By: Chick Flick Princess, 02 Nov 2006 
Okay, so this is absolutely NOTHING to do with the books. Change Mia's name & you have a totallly different story. Still, it was a great film though, & definatly worth watching. I loved the romance in this one which was nice as there was hardly any in the first. I LOVE the matress surfing scene - it always makes me think 'I soooooooo wish I could do that!' I don't know which movie is better - i reallly like them both! All girls shoukld definatley watch this movie - just don't expect it to be like the books!

Good, fun film, with great actors and actresses - By: E. Hart, 13 Oct 2006 I enjoyed watching this, & have to admit that I bought it because I did enjoy parts of it, but I think that even though this film starts off well, from the slumber party on-wards, it becomes a bit wishy-washy & silly.
I do recommend it only as a fun film to watch when you need a some amusement. Once again Julie Andrews & Anne Hathaway are wonderful actresses, & the settings are lovely. You just wish you could be Princess Mia with that great bedroom, & alll those clothes!!
So, yes I would make the most of that wonderful price & buy it, but don't expect the boys to want to watch it with you!
Fun Fluff - By: Ms. S. L. Brannan, 02 Oct 2006 
A fun, "turn your brain off" film for those evenings when you can't be bothered to think about anything. Not one for the boys!
better than the first one - By: T. Stanton, 22 Aug 2006 
I actuallly found this better than the first Princess Diaries.
Julie Andrews & Anne Hathaway played their parts reallly well.
In this Film, Mia is to become Queen, but before that she must find a husband to marry. It is romantic in parts, & funny in others.
Great watch
