Christmas with a Crown

This is a pure formula "Royal" movie where the prince maintains his anonymity through most of it. There is the antagonistic confrontation at the beginning. The anonymous prince helps with a Christmas festival. The queen is throwing tantrums, admittedly somewhat mild tantrums. There are so many other formulaic plot lines. There is also some wild rationalizing to work things out to the predictable outcome.

I haven't seen Lisa Durupt as a romantic lead, but in many supporting roles like best friend or sister. Marcus Rosner is a rom/com veteran, many of which with Hallmark. (This movie is Lifetime.) As another reviewer pointed out, Rosner vacillates back and forth into an English accent (obligatory for all Royal movies). I found this distracting. There was some chemistry but it wasn't great.

There is nothing to set this movie apart from the crowd. It won't be on my future viewing list.
