Synopsis:
When a reporter goes undercover as a tutor to get the inside scoop on a playboy prince, she gets tangled in some royal intrigue and ends up finding love – but will she be able to keep up her lie?
Quick Thoughts:
Netflix has learned to copy the Lifetime/Hallmark Christmas film formula – and it works decently well in “A Christmas Prince”. While I find it a bit reminiscent of other films such as “The Prince & Me” except set at Christmas, there is something cute and whimsical about a foreign love story. It’s not a horrible film, but it is definitely not a Queer film! Sure – Amber has a gay best friend who helps her out from back home. But other than two or three scenes at the start, he disappears until the end. Utilising the cliche and overused trope, if you’re hoping for a Queer twist to “A Christmas Prince”, then you’ll be greatly disappointed. It’s still a cute Christmas film though!
