Typical RomCom but...
... I liked it.After being led to believe that the entire film was going to make me cringe I am surprised to say that there was only one scene I had real trouble with... prizes to those that guess which scene it was... and other than that I rather liked it. Camilla and Nico are not convincing as the real Will and Kate but after all the cliché films like The Prince and Me I think we are used to silly romances that involve the trial and tribulations of marrying royalty.
The movie was gentle to both the real life figures showing neither of them in a bad light, the romance was sweet and believable with funny moments and nice settings.
There have been many complaints about their accents (which weren't too bad) and the fact that they look nothing like their counterparts but that was part of the charm for me. It took it away from the real people and made it simply a sweet film about two young people in love which is a nice way to think about the royal couple. I hope to see more from both the leads again as it's always interesting to get fresh faces in the movie world, and Camilla definitely had charm.
score 8/10
