Disney have managed to do a teenage comedy. I am amazed.
A few weeks ago (ok. before Christmas) I went to see the princess diary’s, ofcourse after being captivated by the trailer, my friend and me where sat down in the cinema and ready to be captured by the funny and witty plot. But then just before the movie started I noticed that Disney made this film. I really could have walked out of the cinema and gone home because most Disney films are boring and don’t really have a good plot, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt and stayed.
The main plot of the story is a teenage girl, I think she is suppost to be 15, gets a visit from her grandmother on her fathers side, who is now dead. Anyway it turns out she is the princess of a very small country which needs to have a new heir to the throne. So the basic plot of the movie is she takes princess lessons and has to decide weather to be the princess or to carry on with her life where she is about as popular as a donkey’s doo doo. I wont spoil it for you but like I always say if you really want to know what her decision is leave me and op or message on my guestbook and I will tell you.
The acting by the main girl (sorry I cant remember her name, it was a long time ago when I saw this movie) is very good and she plays such a convincing role as a girl who has been taken advantage of because of her title. Julie Andrews plays the grandmother and she is also brilliant and when I saw it Mary popins just came flooding back to me. The rest of the cast is basically average but still very good on supporting roles considering they were in allot of the film.
Overall I think that everyone should go and see this film even if you’re not a normal Disney fan. One word sums this film up Brilliant!
