I am NOT a critic. I'm merely an observer. (Books, movies, plays, musicals etc.)

The Prince and The Pauper, with a twist.   I thought it was just going to be the same old story, but I like what happened in this story more than how I loved the original story by Mark Twain.  Hey, I love the original story, because nothing beats it, but the reimagining of the beloved tale gave a lighter feeling, and if I must reiterate, a great twist  to it.   I don't everyone would appreciate this, but a lot would. It's really predictable, but this is one of those movies where predictability is very, very welcomed by me .   Of course, since it's a modern retelling of the famous classical story, it should be adapted to the times, and they didn't fail with that. There were many outrageous scenes, but it was fun to watch. I had a good time watching this. I hope you would too. It's d irected by Mike Rohl and was w ritten by Robin Bernheim (as Robin Bernheim Burger) and Megan Metzger. Thank you so much for your time. :-)

This is from Amazon.com Directed by  Alex Zamm Written by Neal H. Dobrofsky  and Tippi Dobrofsky First things first:  In the version I saw Allie(DANICA MCKELLAR) has only one brother(ROLLO SKINNER) and one sister(ROSE NEVILLE).  The King is not named Ryland, but Maximilian(RUPERT PENRY-JONES).    Maybe it's the surname of the Royal Family, but I wouldn't know for sure. The story may not be totally new, but I love it.  It's one of the best of its kind. It may be considered a fairy tale, but at the very least I like how they met and what transpired after that meeting. COLIN MCFARLANE was so good in being King's bully that I almost hated him, but thankfully I remembered he was only acting. Thankfully, the King knows his place and he didn't allow the chancellor to bully him much longer. Yes, there were too many movies like this, and maybe I could include the Au Pair series, even if Gregory Harrison's role wasn't really...
