Critics Consensus

Predictable but sweet, A Christmas Prince is pleasant enough to pass the time during the holiday season.

Dana Schwartz

Entertainment Weekly

By those metrics, A Christmas Prince is an instant classic. It's a Netflix original movie, but it feels like a violation of nature that it somehow isn't from Lifetime or the Hallmark Channel.

The performances are decent, the script has a good pace even when introducing its twists, it has a correct realization. [Full Review in Spanish]

I'd be willing to forgive a lot of things in this movie if at least the romance is swoon-worthy. Unfortunately, I think it's the biggest fail here as there's simply zero chemistry between the two leads.

Rated: 2.5/5

If you're into decadent, empty-calorie streaming, Netflix has whipped up quite the seasonal soufflé.

Watching this film, though, felt a little like having déjà vu. As each scene proceeded, I thought, I think I know what's going to happen. And I did! Picked it every time.

Rom-Coms do not get much better. A truly excellent movie, with such great performances by Rose Mciver and Ben Lamb. Do not miss this movie it is so good.

I do not understand. This movies moved along nicely, was entertaining, had all the elements of entertaining and yet some critics panned it. Is it their job to simply knock every movie they review? Well then forget the critics this movie was very entertaining to a common person, looking for two hours of great entertainment.

Honestly one of the worst movies ever. Instead of making me feel good like one of these movies should, I was irritated to the point of rooting against the obnoxious liar female lead. And the acting borders on criminal. Is there NO ONE in Hollywood from NY? I kind of think there is, so why the horrible, phony New Yawk accents? But you can't blame the actors for the dialogue so cliched it literally sounded like an SNL skit satirizing bad movie dialogue. When the prince/king comes to propose to Amber at the end, even she says "but we barely know each other" yet (spoiler!) ten seconds later, she says Yes! Oy vey.

There is a secession crisis in the kingdom, and you are falling in love with the illegitimate heir? There is an economic crisis in the kingdom, and you are having a wedding with the formerly illegitimate heir? There is a treaty that, if not signed, could bring a devastating conflict to the continent, and you are having a baby? How the fuck hasn't this nation fallen apart yet?

This is a great movie - well acted, interesting story, and empowering for women. This is not your usual puff piece where a sappy woman just falls for the handsome guy, but an interesting story (and the rest of the movies as well) with a plot, great scenery, smart women, and believable. Watch them all! Don't be dissuaded by the negative reviews by the guys who can't believe a woman can be smart and accomplished.
