The Princess Switch

If you want to just sit down, relax and watch a cute, fun and happy movie like I did after 10 hours of work, it's a good movie. I like Vanessa Hudgens and she was great in this role. Of course, when it comes to these type of movies it's a bit cringe and the acting isn't the best to hope for, but like I said, it's a good movie if you just want to pass the time and make it worth your while.

It's just so fun watching multi talented Vanessa Hudgens act in the dual roles of baker and royal fiancée. There are some not so great moments and parts that could be better but who cares. Her exaggerated English accent is part of the charm. The trading places formula usually works. And her charm helps gloss over the more painful moments.

Sam Palladio of Nashville shows his native English accent for a change.

Some parts are lame but it's still ok.

I have no idea why, but I really enjoyed this more than I'd like to admit. The Princess Switch is, to no ones surprise, extremely cheesy and bad. But it's cheesy and bad in just the right way.

These are the types of movies that I'm usually really indifferent about. There's nothing wrong with them, nor is there anything to write home about. Yet, for some inexplicable reason, I found this one to be really charming. It made me laugh at things that I would usually roll my eyes at and more than kept me entertained for its entire runtime.

Sure, it's extremely predictable and offers nothing new to the genre, but so what. If a movie entertains you and makes you have fun for a couple of hours, then it's doing what it set out to do. And sure, Hudgens' Downtown Abbey accent is awful and sure, it's unapologetically stupid, but so what. If a movie manages to make you smile, then it has to be doing something right. And the The Princess Switch certainly made me smile.

There's really very little to say about a movie like this. I feel like a lot of people are really going to hate it and others are going to enjoy it. It's bad, but it's bad in just the right way. It's a Christmas rom-com, and it was both Christmasy and funny, what more can I really ask for.

Mark Twain did it, Shakespeare did it over and over again, now Netflix takes it over. An impossible premise. An improbable ending. But that is all known to audience before it begins, so, based on those expectations an audience gets exactly what was promised. Vanessa Hudgens is adorable. I always look forward to Sam Palladio. A good supporting cast. A lazy 1 hour and 41 minute watch on a snowy afternoon. I give it a 7 (sappy but lovable) out of 10. {Fantasy Romance}

An enjoyable and heartwarming holiday movie full of fluff and glitter. Sure the accent slips, and the costumes are clearly from your average department store, the plot is obvious and the whole thing is so saccharine that it's hard not to cringe. All that withstanding; it was fun, there were new takes on old tropes, the actors had chemistry and the bright and cheery everything made the movie fairly glow. Not my new favorite rom-com, but I'd watch it again.
