The Princess Switch (2018)

To my utter surprise, I haven’t even talked about the princess switch. Therefore we will be kicking this year’s Christmas reviews off with the Princes switch.

What is this film about?

Competing in a Christmas baking competition in Belgravia, a Chicago baker named Stacy bumps into the prince’s fiancée Marget who happens to look like her. They switch lives and a lot of unexpected things happen. I got the bulk of this information here.

What did I think?

As far as Christmas films go, I did like it. I thought the switch thing was a bit outdated. But I do think that Vanessa Hudgens could pull it off. I always have a bit of a distaste for ‘European-like’ countries where everyone speaks with some sort of British accent and where it always snows on Christmas. But if you love this, this will be brilliant for you.

I did like the Baking contest storyline as well as the Kevin and Stacy dynamic. Lastly, I liked Olivia, I think she made this film feel a bit different from all the other Christmas films. This is an enjoyable (yet a bit predictable) Christmas film you can watch for a great evening in with hot cocoa.

Lots of love, Melissa
