Edvard is Crown Prince of Denmark. A playboy. Good for nothing spoilt brat. One day he has epiphany and decides to go to America and enrols in Wisconsin. Here he is partnered with Paige for lab. Paige is a focused girl, determined to become a doctor and make a career. They are opposites. Opposites attract. 

It’s a boy meets girl romantic movie. They meet. They fight. They hate each other. They try to adjust. They see good in the other. They fall in love. But will it last? Will it survive?

Julia Stiles & Luke Mably play the protagonists. They look good, do well.  Ben Miller plays prince’s assistant. He portrays the embarrassed and duty bound assistant well. James Fox and Miranda Richardson play King and Queen. Miranda looks aristocratic. 

A movie like this is gonna be predictable. This one is, but it’s too predictable. There are absolutely no twists and turns. Spectators expect some drama, but it doesn’t come. That way it becomes unexpected. 

Positives: Feel good. 

Negatives: Predictable.

Watch if you have spare time. Don’t make time for it.
