- 63ReelViewsJames BerardinelliReelViewsJames BerardinelliIt's a perfect choice for a mother/daughter evening out...decently constructed, solidly performed, and not too naïve.
- Trashes whatever spirited fun it initially established. Goodnight, Sweet Prince. Dream on.
- 58Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumEntertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumIn a series of endings, she, and the audience, are falsely promised that she can have it all. In other words, The Prince & Me is committed to the controversial American policy of No Fantasy Left Behind.
- 50L.A. WeeklyRon StringerL.A. WeeklyRon StringerTo no one's possible satisfaction -- the non-question of how Paige is to ascend to the throne and retain her personal integrity that The Prince and Me falls, finally and irrevocably, flat.
- 40The Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttThe Hollywood ReporterKirk HoneycuttAn unremarkable romantic comedy that gives short shrift to both romance and comedy.
