I purchased this item for a friend who was a massive fan of the first 2 DVDs in this series. Unfortunately, neither of us liked the third installment. I really hope they don't make anymore because it seems they got worse as they went along. The first movie was fantastic and the second was a 'typical sequel' which didn't quite live up to the first's reputation but was still enjoyable. Now, the third movie is almost a complete flop. The scenery is great, so that's one good thing. The acting is believable so that's good too. But the switch in actors throughout the movies brings a noticable change in acting styles. I guess the biggest problem is that I'm comparing this to the first one with Julia Stiles which I really enjoyed. Maybe this movie would appeal to some as a 'stand alone' movie without being compared to the previous ones? If you erase the movie's history, you may well find this a delightful movie!

i enjoyed prince and me 3 but was expecting the same actor to play the prince. he does look like the same one but the action was not quite the same. the story line was workable.

The Prince and Me 3 was actually somewhat better than the second one in the series. The major positive difference was that the actor playing the King appeared to actually want to be there. In The Prince and Me 2 it was fairly obvious that Luke Mably did NOT want to be in the film.

The major negative difference was the terrible, awful, worst I have ever seen actor they found to play the Scott character. I can't think of another actor (and here I use the word actor loosely) that came near the swfulness of this guy. Where did they find this guy? He had no sense of the flow of the movie. He most reminded me of someone whose idea of acting was to stand in front of a camera and say his lines.

Without the actor playing Scott this movie would have stood a chance. Not even close to the original Prince and Me with Julia Stiles but still much better than the second one. Kam Heskin was much better in this one and the director paid attention to details unlike number 2.

I still can't recommend it unless you are simply into the series. Fingers crossed and number 4 will be a bit better still.

THIS IS NUMBER THREE IN THE SERIES AND EACH ONE IS WORSE THAN THE PREVIOUS.

This third installment of 'The Prince and Me" trilogy is truly mind-numbing. The first was corny and improbable but had a certain escapist charm owing to the lead actors, Julia Stiles and Luke Mably. Number two was a hoot; so stupid it left one gasping for air. Number three has arrived and is giving its immediate predecessor a run for it's money. The main characters have now both been replaced, which is merciful for the reputations of the original cast members; the performances of the new 'royal couple' should give hope to amateur thespians everywhere but those two should seriously contemplate working at the local mall. Having said that though - we bought it for a laugh and we aren't disappointed!

As one might expect from the series, this movie is a bit corny and the acting isn't great. It seems like soap opera acting, with typecast characters. Neither the king nor the queen exude the charisma one would expect from royalty. Much of the storyline is simply unbelievable (does anybody think the "evil" prime minister would really whip out a sword and attack the king?). Furthermore, the film looks like it was made on a budget - rather than showing HD-quality scenes of wildlife with the actors, the movie appears to use older footage of wildlife from documentaries that was simply spliced into the movie (at some points, the lighting and tone of the snow in the wildlife shots are slightly different than the rest of the scenes).

The saving grace for this movie is that it is not entirely predictable and the plot takes some twists and turns (some for the worse). I also appreciated that the king and queen were depicted as having a relatively mature relationship - not dramatically breaking up for a year over a silly miscommunication, as seems so prevalent in romantic comedies (for example, "Baby on Board"). It will probably be entertaining enough for younger kids, but parents and older children will probably be bored.

It was a good movie, not quite as captivating as the first 2 movies. It was a little too predictable.

This movie is absolutely dreadful. From the story, to the cast and and on to the acting, it was all bad.

I haven't seen the second one in this series as I didn't realize that there was a second one when I rented this one last night. I thought it would be close to the first one in the series but when I looked at who the actor and actress for the King and Queen - I was disappointed. The actress that played the Queen was horrible. Most of the characters in this film didn't act - they just read their lines. I sure won't rent the second one, why bother!

This film made me wish it was the holidays!! I loved the snowy mountain setting - it was a lot of fun watching them ski.

The film also had a good environmental message against cutting down trees - I think this would be a great movie for the whole family.

And I really liked seeing what happens next to the characters in Prince and Me - A real life fairy-tale!
