The Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star | Blogmas Day 5

Image
  It's Blogmas day 5! These movies are now a tradition and I love it! I hope they keep making them for years to come! In this third instalment of The Princess Switch, when a royal artefact is stolen, Margaret (Vanessa Hudgens) and Stacy (Vanessa Hudgens) team up with Margaret's cousin Fiona (Vanessa Hudgens) to get it back. I look forward to seeing these characters every year. This film sees Fiona take the spotlight, with Stacy and Margaret taking a backseat. While I was intrigued by this new direction, Fiona was never a character that I cared about in the previous movies, so I didn't love that the story focused on her rather than the characters that I had already grown to love. The story itself is less compelling this time around. But because we are so familiar with this world, it doesn't matter that much what the story is. The film could have been shorter, and the story could definitely have been a lot more fun. It started to drag on after a while. It also doesn't...

The Princess Switch: Switched Again | Blogmas Day 7

 Hey Guys x It's Blogmas day 7!  I reviewed the first 'Princess Switch' movie last year during Blogmas, so of course I had to review this one too! Duchess Margaret Delacourt (Vanessa Hudgens) is preparing for her Christmas Day Coronation. When Princess Stacey De Novo (Vanessa Hudgens) comes to visit, with a special guest in tow, can Margaret repair her broken relationship before her Coronation? Of course I liked this movie. If you liked the first one, there's no real reason not to like this one. It's nice that the film picks up in a place that feels familiar. You know these characters, and can jump right back into the story. The movie doesn't take itself too seriously. It knows exactly what it is, and exactly what its viewers want to see. So many Christmas movies should follow this rule. The characters that we already know are warm and familiar. But I also have to give a shoutout to Ricky Norwood, who plays Reggie. I've been a fan of his since he was in East...

The Princess Switch | Blogmas Day 18

Hey Guys x It's Blogmas day 18! Our second visit to Vanessa Hudgens this Blogmas! This time it comes in the form of 'The Princess Switch', which I had heard of but knew nothing about until I actually sat down to watch it. When Duchess Margaret Delacourt (Vanessa Hudgens) meets Stacy DeNovo (Vanessa Hudgens) and sees how alike they look, she has a brilliant idea - they should switch places over the Christmas holidays. But when they spend time as each other, the discover exactly what the other has been missing out on. I loved this movie. It's serious a contender for Blogmas film of the year, I really really enjoyed it. And of course, that doesn't mean it's perfect, but who cares? For a start, the premise of the film is so ridiculous that it's actually really entertaining. Like, it would never ever happen in real life, but it makes you want to know what happens next. There was great chemistry between all four of the main characters - including the...
