Movie synopsis
Teen actress Anne Hathaway gives an endearing performance in Garry Marshall's delightful Disney comedy, THE PRINCESS DIARIES. Assisted by such seasoned pros as Julie Andrews and Hector Elizondo (a Marshall regular), Hathaway shines here in her first major film role. She plays Mia, a high school misfit who has resigned herself to social invisibility. Mia and her best friend, Lilly (Heather Matarazzo), are outcasts. While Lilly relishes the role, Mia just wishes a cute popular boy she likes, Josh (Erik von Detten), would notice her. Mia's life changes dramatically when her grandmother (Andrews) contacts her and Mia finds out she is heir to the throne of Genovia, a small European country between France and Spain. The klutzy, socially awkward girl doesn't think she's up to the job, but she agrees to be coached in regal manners by her grandmother before deciding if she wants to become a princess. Marshall (PRETTY WOMAN) is clearly in his element directing this light, charming teen comedy. Andrews, perfectly cast as Queen Clarisse Renaldi, makes her character seem both imperious and caring. Hathaway's performance and the presence of teen pop star Mandy Moore assure that young girls, in particular, will enjoy the film.

The Princess Diaries

Personally, I love Anne Hathaway! I love her! She's my dream girl! And in this flick she's delightful, funny, clumsy, smart, clever, sweet, real, superb!
It's a very nice plot also, very original idea, the princess hidden in San Francisco downtown.
Julie Andrews is absolutely amazing, delightful and charming to watch, even to hear. That lady is just absolute elegance!
The actress that plays Anne Hathaway's best friend is hilarious! A complete riot!
In general, this is a good comedy, teen movie with a good message, great cast (Hector Elizondo among others), great directing by the legendary Gary Marshall and awesome acting. Very fun to watch; I'd say funnier than the sequel. Recommended.

ROYAL FUN!

Featues actors: Julie Andews, Anne Hathaway & Hector Elizondo
Rating:G
Shy and nerdy Mia Thermopolis, whose only wish is to get through her school day unnoticed and without causing herself any embarrassment, is about to get the surprise of a lifetime. Enter Mia's estranged grandmother who just happens to be the Queen of Genovia! Mia isn't overjoyed to discover she is a princess and does not attend her 'princess lessons' without a fight. To top it off, Mia has only three weeks to learn how to act and look like royalty. Her comical transformation plays out on screen with much laughter, fun, and sheer enjoyment. On a more serious note, Mia also finds herself hiding from the media, dealing with jealous classmates and trying to thwart a plot to take over Genovia.

This is such a cute movie, this would be a great movie to watch with girlfriends or with you mom or grandma!Would definitely recommend to rent or buy!Thanks for reading! Please click YES at the bottom. :)

Great Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway Movie

Review For: The Princess Diaries (DVD, 2001, Full Frame)

This movie is one of my favorites. For one it co-stars my favorite actress, Julie Andrews, and debuts Anne Hathaway, who has become one of my favorite actresses. Secondly, it is a well done story of a common girl, Mia, played by Anne Hathaway, who learns she is really a princess.

In the movie the Queen of Genovia (Julie Andrews) takes on the challenge of Mia's princess training, as she is the last hope of keeping the throne from a count and countess, who are greedy for the power. Beind a princess is something Mia never dreamt of and with it causing her to lose her life of invisibility that she enjoyed she thinks about giving up her claim to the throne. In the end will she accept or reject her title as Princess of Genovia?

Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway are a great combination they play well off each other. This light hearted story is a film the whole family will enjoy. It would be a great addition to your family film collection. Mia's best friend is an absolute hoot.
