Plot: It is always easy to be a princess in fairy tales. She is well-dressed and well-fed, coquettishly coquettish, and wears beautiful dresses to socialize. You can also wait for Prince Charming to rescue you after you are in trouble. But it is not that easy to become the princess of a country. A small decision of yours will also affect your country and its people. Alas! Why is the reality so different from the ideal?

The naughty, modern Mia (played by Anne Hathaway) who has nothing to do with the princess temperament is back again. In the last episode, Mia finally accepted the identity of the princess. Ya, after finishing Princeton University, naturally followed her elderly but still charming grandmother (played by Julie Andrews) back to Xenovia. In the first few days after entering the palace, everything was so novel, and there was no shortage of high-end gadgets. Everything was available. It felt like being a princess! But before Mia could enjoy life enough, she discovered that her days as a princess were short. The country needed management, and she had to learn to be a qualified queen.

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly. The law of this small country somewhere in Europe actually stipulates that the princess must find a husband within thirty days, so that she can inherit the throne naturally, and a Duke named Nicholas is already ready. Rule the country in her stead when her goals fail to be achieved. For the country, for the people, and for reasons that even Mia doesn't understand yet, it seems she must choose one from hundreds of qualified candidates to become her future half. What will happen specifically, I can only paraphrase Princess Mia's famous saying - just follow your feelings!

What to watch: No one expected that "Princess Diaries" would be so successful. It was produced with a small budget and there were no big stars. Even Andrews was relegated to the role of grandma. But in 2001, it was born Niu Cai has earned more than 100 million US dollars, not to mention its momentum in the video market. Disney has certainly tasted the sweetness. It has assembled almost all the original cast, including director Garry Marshall, and invested US$58 million to once again demonstrate the princess's charm.

Speaking of musicals, "The Sound of Music" is also a milestone. Although the heroine Julie Andrews has lost her youth, her style has not diminished. She also showed her talents in "The Princess Diaries" . However, many fans still cannot forget her beautiful voice and her former stage presence. However, she was forced to leave the singing stage after undergoing laryngeal polypectomy in 1997. In "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement", the noble royal grandmother will regain her singing voice, with a classical-style "The Crown" custom-made for her by musicians Larry Grossman and Roland Feather. "Brilliant" will show the style of the former stage queen, and the sword is not old yet!

And the little girl who had grown up and was still a little naive has turned into a mature and confident, but still lovely princess. It is also appropriate for Anne Hathaway to play the role. but.

This little "Julia Roberts" who made her debut in "The Princess Diaries" is now a charming girl with a smile. Her unique charm and comedy talent will still bring surprises. I believe that Princess Mia will also become one of many A girl’s dream goal. The film's soundtrack has also gathered a large number of powerful idols, and it seems that it is going to strive for a double harvest of film and music.

------------------------------------------------ ----------Violence, edge, sex, when it comes to today's youth movies, there are really few that can't talk about these things, but Disney has done it. Facts have proved that as long as the filming is good enough, the audience will buy it. Who says we can't be innocently happy? But making a movie like this that is suitable for all ages is not as easy as it sounds. Director Marshall is another treasure of Disney. He has directed "Pretty Woman" and "Runaway Bride". He handled the "Princess Diaries" series just right, making children and young people flock to it, and even adults want to follow. , and you can also find a lot of fun in it. "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement" still maintains a sweet, romantic but still comedic tone. The actors are fully integrated into the characters and full of charm. The royal grandmother Andrews has a moving voice, but her singing is not obtrusive at all. As a G-rated family movie, this film is absolutely spot-on! In addition to being like a fairy tale dream, the most important thing about the "Princess Diaries" series is to convey a message - everyone has the power to work towards their own hopes, and your dreams will come true. It may tell a seemingly illusory story, but it also provides a valuable reminder of reality - precious things are not necessarily dazzling, there are always some beliefs and principles worth adhering to, remember to follow your own heart and dreams .
