    In all honesty, I don't really remember this movie, so that is why I am not giving a summary of the movie. But I do remember how much I loved it. When my sister and I watched it, I was one, little and wasn't interested and two, we mostly rewatched the second one. But if I was to take one thing from the entire movie was how amazing it was. I love the way everything works out. I loved this movie because, while not fully realistic, I was able to see how one could go from totally nothing one day and the next day they are a princess or prince. I also like this movie because it was motivating. It motivated me be my best and if I tried hard enough, I would be able to achieve great success. Wrapped around family and royalty, I thought this movie was really good. With a great message, it was entertaining, funny at times and also a somewhat realistic princess movie. So realistic, that you could easily imagine yourself as Mia, being told that she was a princess. I really liked this movie and suggest it for anyone and everyone. Plus, not to mention Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews are in it! Happy watching!

      This is a great movie. I found the first film in a charity shop (I'm from England) and I watched it with my mum. We both found it hilarious, romantic and a little bit tragic. It's about a girl who's dad died when she was younger and she doesn't know a lot about him. Then one day her Grandmother comes and tells her, that now she is old enough, and because her dad passed away, she is now the sole heir of a country, which really freaks her out. Eventually, she decides to give it a try and she has to balance that on her shoulders AND schoolwork (it gets really hard when everyone knows that you're a princess) AND she has a massive crush on a boy at school. Can she cope?

            Mia is so funny at the beginning but at the end she is the best princess ever. Watch this one then the second one.
