Jingle Bell Princess

The story was so simple but goes to your heart. Merritt played her role perfectly including her accent. She is becoming one of my favorite. Trevor was likable on this movie as well.

Thank you GAC for creating wholesome, family oriented movies. For giving Hallmark a run for their money.

It's clear GAC at this point is getting Hallmark rejects. This story was beyond dumb - a Princess stranded in a small Maine town when her private plan takes off without her. If something like this really happened, everyone on the plane would have been fired the second the plane touched down without the Princess. Merritt Patterson tried her hardest, but Trevor Donovan seemed to check out halfway through. Hopefully they'll get better material to work with in the future.

When will they use actors with real English/Irish/Scottish etc accents rather than force an actor to create this awful imitation of a posh English accent. It may be acceptable to US audiences but it is really off putting and a bit condescending. Not a bad wee film though.

Royalty from mysterious foreign land ends up in small town America. Falls in love with widower and his daughter. Bla bla bla. Sure it's easy on the eyes as far as Hallmark goes but I can never get past the horrible attempt at British accents. The least they could do is access the giant pool of British actors to fill the role. My expectations aren't high, really. It's easy to overlook other things, but you're listening to this voice for 90 minutes. Please make it a voice I can actually listen to.

I like the main actors. Merritt is very sweet in this one, although LOTS of things seem less than probable. I'm half English and I thought her accent was fine.

The dog was unnecessary. Didn't quite get it; probably fine in the book, but was an extra here.

The movie was a bit boring, to be honest. Maybe a lot boring.

Trevor is such a sweetie, but his movies are hit or miss. This was a miss.

The Cutler family did not behave respectfully to their foreign guest. They seemed to look down on her because she was wealthy. A lot of people do. She had a very kind and gentle demeanor. And classy. They were anything but.

One very small but funny thing I found amusing. The main couple has coffee in mugs and neither use the handle to hold the cup. The cultured and refined princess would definitely hold it correctly. And she likely WOULD eat cold pizza with a fork and knife. Nothing wrong with that; I know people who would. No reason for Sam to be rude and snarky in that scene.
