The Prince & Me Movie Review 2004

Dairy farmer's daughter Paige (Stiles) is a driven pre-med student who dreams of a future with Doctors Without Borders until Prince Charming shows up disguised as an average Joe. In this case his name is Eddie--actually Prince Edvard of Denmark (Mably)--and they fall in love, but as these young romance stories go the truth inevitably surfaces and the inner conflict begins. Should she give up on her life's passion? Or live the supposed fairy tale life of a princess? Of course in this modern day the larger question should be why does she have to choose? Only Stiles' engaging performance makes this sweet-yet-typical story at all worth watching.
