A combination of royal and road trip? 2 cliché plots in one? I didn't have much hope for this one. But I was surprised. It was just nice. Great chemistry between the two leads, thanks to fun and serious conversation. Slow burn. Anticipation of the meet up with the rival in Chicago kept the interest up. I liked the character arc of the princess who started out stiff and uninteresting, but as she opened up, her enthusiasm for American culture was endearing. Very good.
The obvious try to be a different Hallmark romance is the main motif to define it as more than another nice film.
First virtue are the actors -the handsome Brant Daugherty ( including in shirtless scene ) in fair and clever driven orole of bodygurd , friend and true love of a princess, Philippa Northeast as interesting version, off course, with significant differences, of Audrey Hepburn from Roman Holiday, Sara -Jane Redmond as perfect queen and. Vincent Gale as admirable uncle of too loved niece.
But the perfect " spices '' are BJ Harrison and Terence Kelly ( and the beautiful blanckett like the pearls ) and. Catherine Baroll and. Robert Wisden as The Becks.
Not the last, the travel across USA and the clash with the young artist, too selfish to be the chosen one.
A beautiful film, indeed.

Amelia is soon to be crowned Queen and while she was having her portrait painted she became infatuated with a boy from Chicago, so she makes it her mission to go to the United States. So, she ends up in L. A and thanks to her uncle she ends up on a road trip with Grady, a bodyguard.
You know what to expect about this movie just from the title. I do think it's better than a lot of royal movies Hallmark has made. Speaking of royalty, I grew up watching "Chasing Liberty" and "First Daughter", so this was a must watch. It includes a road trip in a convertible and the typical American experience: a small town festival, camping & smores and an adorable inn with a wise couple.
I liked that we also got to know the vulnerable parts of the main lead not only regarding his feelings towards the leading lady, but also his personal issues and even an ex. They had good chemistry and as I mentioned before the "Royalness" isn't exagerated.
Anyway, it was okay.

Two wonderful leading actors whose chemistry is off the charts, this is a must see royal journey to find love.
The story begins on a frustrating note. A man named Wes from Chicago, and a princess, are supposedly in love. Wes is a successful painter and his current project is painting a portrait of the princess. After he's finished, he flies back to the states. Side note: It's a stretch that he is American, he is olive skinned with an eastern look and a strange accent...
Princess Amelia wants to visit him, however he becomes somewhat distant, he is a busy artist after all. She leaves nothing to chance, she is persistent, and will visit him as soon as the opportunity arises.
Two months later, Princess Amelia and her mother are visiting her uncle in Los Angeles and soon she meets Grady the head of her uncle's security detachment. The first impression is icy cold...after all he is a tall and handsome American who symbolizes power and sex appeal. Immediately, she is overwhelmingly attracted to him, but carefully masquerades as a disapproving dignitary to conceal her feelings.
She wants to fly to Chicago to see Wes, but she knows her mother will not permit it, so she persuades her uncle to allow her to sneak off via automobile. He allows it under one condition, that she be accompanied by his trusty security guard Grady.
We can guess how the story goes...
They visit many places, Princess Amelia experiences the mid-west, and she falls in love with the culture and with Grady. Oh, but she is supposed to be longing to see her painter Wes, and her feelings become confused...will her rendezvous with Wes be a game changer, or does she have stronger feelings for Grady?
We can guess how the story ends.

This was more or less watchable although nothing special as Hallmark royal movies go. The Aussie did a better job at the fake British accent than an American but still not very believable. The chemistry was OK but again nothing special. The weirdest part is they tried to to film a US roadtrip in BC.
Snow covered mountains in Nebraska? Still hoping for 1 decent royal movie this year. So far no joy.
