Critics Consensus

A bland, fluffy, and predictable bit of wish fulfillment.

Strangely both exactly of its time, yet also miles ahead of it.

Good acting saves unoriginal Cinderella story.

Empire Magazine

This attempt at a modern-day Cinderella story is about as PC as a Career Girl Barbie and disappoints due to poor structure, flimsy characterisation and insufficient wit to distract from the above.

Rated: 2/5

A glibbest of royalty themed romantic comedies... Standard teenage wish-fulfillment slop.

...generally remains a cut above the majority of its contemporary romcom brethren - with the dreaded fake break-up handled particularly well (the second fake break-up is kind of pushing it, though).

It’s all completely fine and is by no means awful but is definitely more of a chill, comforting watch that requires no thought. Acting is okay, the plot is predictable and all of it is very cliché. Though by all means is perfect for a mindless watch.

Not your usual girl meets prince movie. She is a driven American girl, he is a spoiled rich kid royal. Don't know why it got such low scores.

Surpreendentemente adorável, angelical, sensível e divertido, esperadamente clichê, romântico e fake... Adoro Julia Stiles, pouco aproveitada e subestimada... Aqueles romances água com açúcar de contos de fadas infantis materializado num filme carinho e delicado, como todos os filmes de príncipes e plebeias, mas surpreendeu me o carisma, encantou me, adorável e fofo...

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
