Review of The Princess Switch (2018) by Robert R — 06 Dec 2018

An absolutely appalling example of why cliches and tropes sometimes don't work -- especially when either used too often or relied upon exclusively. "The Princess Switch" is a borderline shameful exploitation of grounds that the romantic comedy genre has already stomped into oblivion by way of the Hallmark channel alone.

Sure, you could argue it's first twenty minutes are a "so bad, it's good" watch, but that's only for the first twenty minutes. This movie's like a weird drug where the first few minutes of use are completely satisfactory (in an ironic sense, albeit).

But that is quickly followed by a sudden onset of tolerance that honestly makes you question whether or not using was even worth it. Just horrifically bad. Bad, bad, bad.
