Negative Positive
Title: Awful
Review: This movie is unrealistic and poorly made. By "unrealistic", I don't mean that the concept of "ordinary girl becomes princess" is stupid. I'm always game for some good fantasy. But the way the characters responded to their circumstances seemed stilted and unnatural. Also, the happenings of the movie didn't make much sense. Case in point: Near the end of the movie, Mia is crying in a broken-down car, wet and bedraggled, because she can't make it to the royal ball, while her grandmother (the Queen) is about to announce to thousands of people that the Princess has abdicated her duties. Suddenly, the screen goes black, and in the next scene Mia is clean, dry, and dressed in a beautiful gown, making her royal entrance. Huh? This is just one example; over half the scenes are done like this. Basically, this movie was unacceptable to me, and I really hope that the books it was based on were better than this.
Is the review positive or negative?
