I've not really been a fan of Disney's recent live action movies (I much prefer the old animated classics), but I was pleasantly surprised by "The Princess Diaries".
I thought it would be just another cheesy teenage movie, but I think people of all ages can really enjoy it. The plot is simple - 15 year old Mia doens't fit in at school and desperately wants to be invisible. Her grandmother visits her to tell her that her father (who recently died) was the Prince of Genovia and that she is the only heir. So begins Mia's transformation from geeky high school kid into a prim and proper princess.
Anne Hathaway, as Mia, is really fantastic in this film. She has great likeability and you really root for the character. Julie Andrews is also brilliant as the Queen, and the two of them have really good on screen chemistry as grandmother and granddaughter.
Very enjoyable.
8/10
