Royalteen

At first I was like "let's kill my time with an easygoing cliché teen movie", but actually it turned out to be a remarkable teen movie! Bravo! I really enjoyed it! I would like to see it to last more, because at some scenes was too fast the plot!

Too much at once. They just skipt everything important, like where did all this come from. It was like the writer really wanted every teen romance movies in one movie. I would have been better if it was a series and not a 2 hour film.

The very end was odd and felt rushed but this was a nice movie. I watched it with subtitles half heartedly while working and it managed to suck me in enough that I had to stop and wait for it to finish.

Never read the book(s)? So not sure about accuracy but it was definitely better than the current rating.

I didn't read the book this was based on so I'm not sure if it's a good adaptation but as it is... it's not really great.

I watched totally blind expecting it to be a light hearted royalty teen romcom similar to "Prince and Me" or "Royal Treatment" but it wasn't (not necessarily a bad thing!). I was surprised to see them add in more delicate topics a teenager may face. It wasn't some masterpiece twist but it does at least separate its characters from the usual. They have high consequence actual flaws and issues like dealing with social stigma... it's not just sunshine and rainbows.

However the execution of everything was lackluster. Pacing was horrible. Instead of focusing on the whole of the story they chose to highlight the "romance" part that it overshadowed the struggles of the characters because it was all about the romance that was basically non-existent here because they didn't really give it time to mature and create chemistry. They just fell in love for some reason after like bumping into each other? You can't build a good romance without foundation. They even addressed the deeper issues that made the whole plot better so flippantly...it's just disappointing.

This would have been better as a limited series of sort to really delve into the characters' struggles, why they act they way they do, so you can actually empathize with them while the romance is a B-plot to create that slow burn. But alas this wasn't it.

This would have been really good as a TV show, but as a movie it ended in such a wierd way, way to soon. The way it built up, and the way it ended was just like an episode 1 of a TV show.
