The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement

The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004)

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Not as good as the original, but still highly entertaining. Some may think I would like it more given the country setting and lots of horses on the castle grounds. Small wonder the side saddle scenes are some of the funniest to me. Overall a decent sequel to an amusing series. Would have been interested to see if the could have built on it more than they did given the length of the book series it's based off of.

Can't claim to have read any of the books yet, but I remember finding this film highly amusing when it first came out and I still enjoy watching it from time to time today. Definitely one I'll enjoy watching with my daughter as she gets older. Given how long the book series appears to be, I'm a little surprised they haven't done more than just 2 films, though at the same time I don't recall the sequel doing as well in the box office.
