I really can not believe that the makers of this "film" believed that it was good and could do well! This is the direct opposite of flawless (not the dance troop) because I really can't think of a thing that redeemed it, apart from it being so cringingly awful it became sort of entertaining :S, but not so entertaining that it deserved any more than 1 star because I would never, ever ever ever etc. Watch this again! Let's begin (I don't know where to begin!) with the horrendous acting. The person who played Kate looked a little bit like her, but she couldn't act for a toffee apple and the makers even decided to give her a weird American accent. Why? When she spoke some words it was suddenly a strong English accent but on the next it became strong American! It sounded like she was bloody south African! But lets not just dwell on the poor girl because she was not the only one who couldn't act. It was only the rest of the cast that couldn't act either (even the bloody extras). William didn't look like William, couldn't act but at least he didn't have a yanky accent. Basically my point is. NO ONE COULD ACT FOR A SNIBSTON PENCIL! The directing was atrocious as well, with half the heads being missed in some shots, it even wobbled sometimes when it looked like it wanted to be a static shot! It looked rushed and why was this? Because it was rushed. This was more reminiscent of a soap than a romcom (AND IT'S NOT EVEN MEANT TO BE AN ARSEING ROMCOM!!) Which brings me onto my next huge problem. The screenplay. Whoever wrote this should have their hands sliced off so they can never write again! (of course I'm exaggerating, you can keep your hands just try and write a little better next time). You have to see it to believe it. "I thought we were studying", "I'm studying you". CRINGE!! Some scenes made me feel incredibly uncomfortable because of either the acting or the writing (I couldn't tell) even a chick flick wouldn't be this bad.
So basically they've turned a "royal love story" into a teen angst movie, with more clichés than I cared to count, with Kate and William constantly falling out over minor things but making up over a sing song, aww. Really unrealistic moments with Prince Big Ears inviting William's friends for tea and eating with him! Oh and let's not forget Kate swimming over to William and getting out all dripping wet and snogging his face off. That could really happen couldn't it?
But if you fancy a laugh you're in the right place, let's face it I only watched it to see how bad it was going to be.
