The Princess (2022)
It's a cheeseburger
3 July 2022 - 12 out of 20 users found this review helpful.
I once heard Gene Shalit summarize a movie thusly: "If I order a cheeseburger, I don't expect to get filet mignon. All I want is a really good cheeseburger, and if I get a good cheeseburger, I'm happy. And sometimes I even get a pickle."
This film is not heavy on plot. A princess refuses a marriage offer to a power-hungry nobleman, who locks her in a tower and tries to usurp the kingdom. What follows odds a delightful subversion of the Damsel in Distress trope, where our princess finds her own escape, albeit with a massive body count
This is a cheeseburger, but it doesn't pretend it's not, and so long as you're not expecting otherwise, it satisfies.
