Princess (2008 TV Movie)
9/10
Predictable But Overall Wonderful
20 April 2008
Warning: Spoilers
It's no enchanted but it certainly gives a new spin to the meaning of Princess. The plot is newer than other stories. The princess must pass on her powers of speech with mythological creatures when she reaches the age of 25 to the new princess (usually an orphan). The princess is portrayed with innocence as well as a strong and loving heart. A good heroine even if she talks a bit too carefully. William, the "Prince", is a likable enough character. Down on his luck, his path comes to Ithica (the princess). And of course the two of them fall in love. Through a nice but predictable miscommunication, William has to help Ithica search for the new princess.

The "animals" are a bit too cgi at times but overall have a nice effect. The script is done up very well, humor mixed in with actual emotion. All the actors do a great job with their characters, bringing them to life.

Though the scenes, characters, (and the plot only slightly) have that familiar aire and can be a bit predictable at times it is still definitely a movie worth seeing, especially if you never gave up believing in magic!
