Wow, this is a REALLY bad movie!
Perfect cast and a good story
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Carter Mason (Selena Gomez) only has her father Joe (Tom Verica). He goes away to protect princess Rosalinda Montoya (Demi Lovato). General Magnus Kane (Johnny Ray) takes over her country. She escapes with colonel Mason under the International Princess Protection Program. She is relocated to live with Joe in Louisiana under the new identity of Rosie Gonzalez. Now she must adjust to high school life in America while being harassed by mean girl Chelsea (Jamie Chung).The premise is silly. It's nothing unexpected from Disney. One must accept the stupidity and go on with the movie. This is about the performances of the two girls and their chemistry. They are good actresses and they have good screen presence. They are compatible together. They're really the only saving grace in an otherwise weak high shool movie.
First of all, the ending was soooooooooo awful and I knew some of you wanted to know what happened with Ed and Carter and stuff like that. I was looking forward to that to but then I guess it was a big disappointment. But seriously, friendship is the main theme here and I think each best friend should watch this....I meant the lesson of the story. It's pretty good Carter spared Rosie and went with the General Guy and sacrificed herself for her best friend. And her dad, OMG, I hate it! The part when the rescued her....her dad should've said "I'm proud of you, Carter, you inherited my skills" or stuff like that that Carter was a brave person but of course she might've be in trouble but above all, it's a typical Disney movie except for the ending which is awful.
My 2 daughters (ages:9 and 6)and I saw the movie and we like it. I am in disagreement with the comments that said that the movie is bored or without good argument. Remember that this movie is for children, specially for girls. Selena Gomez and Demy Lovato are excellent actresses and in the movie they act very well. The locations are good, the castle, the school and the house in "Luisianna". It's not necessary make the picture in it. In my opinion is an entertained, funny and good movie and I expect that the creators of the movie don't read comments that do not contribute anything and they are not the opinion of the majority. The children are the best judges because the movie is made for them. Bearing a grudge they see the movie. And my daughters recommended.
Perhaps I'm too old to like this movie. After watching I felt I should have got more. Most of the comedic scenes were unbelievable, and themes all girls being princesses is a little old and timeworn. Little kids get something out of this? I guess. Is it just me or have I seen this movie before? There were some positives though. The relations between the parents and the daughters were refreshingly sane. Selena's was grounded man and not a caricature, the relationship between Demi and her mom seemed passionate, although most of the passion was on Demi's side. Perhaps because this is a kid's movie the villain of the piece seemed ridiculous and unbelievable. The relationship between Selena and Demi seemed strained, like being best friends in real life hampered being at odds ends in the beginning of the movie. If this were a writing assignment I think I would give it back and say it needs more work.
