"Some scenes are downright insulting to viewers over the age of ten."
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
2/5
"A Royal Letdown."
eFilmCritic.com
Dan Lybarger
3/4
"...generally remains a cut above the majority of its contemporary romcom brethren - with the dreaded fake break-up handled particularly well (the
second
fake break-up is kind of pushing it, though)."
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
2/4
"The ending, plain and simple, cheapens all that has come before."
TheMovieBoy.com
Dustin Putman
3/4
"This surprisingly intelligent dramedy is largely hung-up on facades and is critical of misogynistic fairy tales promised to young girls."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez

"It is really two movies in one, and both are sub-par."

C-
"Something is rotten in the state of Denmark--and it's this movie, a flyweight romantic comedy."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
3/5
"Two vibrant performances by Luke Mably and Julia Stiles don't compensate for the wobbly screenplay and predictable finale."
Spirituality and Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
2.5/4
"It's easy enough to recommend
The Prince & Me
as a romantic comedy. The movie wants to be more than that, but the muddled way in which it divulges its themes occasionally makes it suffer from a split personality."
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
5/10
"the script and Martha Coolidge direction are so play-it-safe formulaic that the film lacks fairy-tale luster. It’s as predictable as an Elvis movie—without the music."
DVDTown.com
James Plath
3/4
"Fitful corny one-liners and an ambiguous climax can be overlooked due to fresh scripting and the vast appeal of Julia Stiles and newcomer Luke Mably."
Palo Alto Weekly
Jeanne Aufmuth
60/100
"Julia Stiles is sweet in this charming, but unfulfilling, rom-com."
FilmFocus
Joe Utichi
3.5/5
"It's exactly the kind of movie you want it to be. Rent it with your best girlfriends on a blustery spring afternoon."
Cinerina
Karina Montgomery
2.5/4
"Julia Stiles is adorable, and she's very easy to empathize with"
Movie Habit
Marty Mapes

"By the time we have to sit through a scene of Paige trying on all the Crown jewels, they have long since run out of ideas."
Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies
Nell Minow
2/5
"A mocinha não precisava ser Ph.D em Dramaturgia, é claro, mas tampouco deveria ser retratada como alguém com Q.I. inferior ao de Forrest Gump."
Cinema em Cena
Pablo Villaca
"It is impossible to believe that such a bland film could have been made by Martha Coolidge, whose previous credits have included 'Valley Girl' and 'Real Genius'."
Critic Doctor
Peter Sobczynski
3/5
"Pure fairy tale, but it's also charming enough to win us over in the end."
Shadows on the Wall
Rich Cline
2/5
"
The Prince & Me
is made for starry-eyed 14-year-old girls, undemanding Moms and kindhearted Grannies. Each demographic deserves just a little bit better by this point."
eFilmCritic.com
Scott Weinberg
2/4
"There's not one moment that's even vaguely fresh or original in the screenplay, which blithely dispenses with anything resembling logic or plausibility, not to mention wit and heart."
Reel.com
Timothy Knight
2/4
"It's not torture, it's actually sort of fun for long stretches--a shame that
The Prince & Me
squanders all that good will in its desire to be ordinary."
